Non-free image use

Hi 06porterr. While it is true that Wikipedia does allow the use of some logos as non-free content, each use must satisfy all 10 of the non-free content criteria listed in WP:NFCCP. One of these criteria is WP:NFCC#9 which states that non-free content may only be used in the article namespace; this means (as explained in WP:DRAFTS#Preparing drafts) that non-free content is not allowed to be used in drafts. So, please don't re-add the file to your draft because doing so is clearly not allowed by relevant policy. WP:NFCI is just meant to give examples of some types of non-free use that are generally considered acceptable, but WP:NFCCP is the policy governing non-free content use.

Amyway, File:Malvern College Crest.svg is being used in Malvern College, so it should only be added after the draft has been approved and upgraded to an article. Just for reference, another one of the non-free content criteria is WP:NFCC#10, which states that a separate specific non-free use rationale needs to be provided for each use of non-free content. This rationale has to show how the particular use satisfies all 10 of the aforementioned criteria. So, make sure you are sure that non-free use is justified and explain how by providing the required rationale before adding the image to any articles. Non-free use can be tricky and simply providing a rationale is no guarantee that the image will still not be removed at a later date. In particular, the main issue you're going to have to resolve has to do with item #17 of WP:NFC#UUI. In general, logos or crest for schools are considered OK for stand-aone article about the main univeristy (in this case this would be Malvern College), but not acceptable for articles about subsidiaries/branches/departments, etc. like Malvern College Egypt appears to be. A logo specific to Malvern College Egypt (like the one shown at malverncollege.edu.eg), however, would be fine to use per item 2 of WP:NFCI. Just don't upload it until your draft has been upgraded to an article. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask them at WP:MCQ. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:20, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Paul W was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The school is a relatively recent creation, yet to achieve any significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. A large proportion of the references used in the article are from its parent institution, not from independent sources.
