Orphaned non-free image File:Tat1.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Tat1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 16:00, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Maryville-airport.jpg[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Maryville-airport.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:02, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Percival Proctor Baxter and Garry[edit]
Heya, I just spotted that you'd uploaded https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percival_P._Baxter#mediaviewer/File:Baxter-garry.jpg as I was looking to upload the full image from a copy of his book at the start of the version at archive.org [1]. However as you uploaded the original version to Wikipedia, I thought you might want to put the full version up rather than have me jump in and replace your work. :) Miyagawa (talk) 12:42, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Permission to use photo[edit]
Hello,
My name is Jose Alvarez and I'm an archives researcher for a documentary series.
We are currently working on an episode about Paris Hilton and we mention that she attended the Convent of the Sacred Heart school in New York for a while. We came across your photo and would like to obtain permission to use it in your documentary.
Please let me know if I can send you a release form for this that would include any special requests in terms of who to credit.
I thank you in advance for your help and look forward to your news. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.37.118.50 (talk) 19:54, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Pony-trademark.jpg[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Pony-trademark.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:48, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
Bonackers article[edit]
Did you author the wiki article Bonackers? I had info to share but found its talk page had been deleted in 2008 for reasons unknown. So recreated it and left my info there. Interestingly the history tab was also absent but reappeared after I saved the new talk page. Anyway, check it out if you're the guy, or if not maybe you can alert the right person. I've not had time to become a pro at this stuff. Cliffewiki (talk) 00:21, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

Shinnecock Canal Locks Photo request[edit]
Hi. I was wondering if you would give me permission to use your photos of the Shinnecock Canal Locks on the Dan's Papers website, and possibly in print? I want to use it in a photoshop picture of a submarine getting stuck in there.
Please email me when you receive this at: oliver@danspapers.com
If not, we'll photograph it tonight, but your pics work and would save me some time.
Thanks.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
Saturday December 3: Contemporary Chinese Art Edit-a-thon @ Guggenheim[edit]
| Saturday December 3: Contemporary Chinese Art Edit-a-thon @ Guggenheim | |
|---|---|
 On Saturday December 3, 2016, in conjunction with a global campaign, the Guggenheim will host its fifth Wikipedia edit-a-thon—or, #guggathon—to enhance Wikipedia's coverage of modern and contemporary artists from Greater China. The event will cap off Wikipedia Asian Month, an online campaign dedicated to augmenting Asian content on Wikipedia throughout November. New and experienced editors are welcome. The event will include a training session for participants who are new to Wikipedia, and Wikipedia specialists will be on hand to provide basic instruction and editing support. Editors are invited to view the exhibition Tales of Our Time following the event. The Guggenheim aims to raise awareness of the artists featured in the Tales of Our Time exhibition supported by The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Chinese Art Initiative, and build on the model of campaigns like the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Women in Architecture, Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Contemporary Art of the Middle East and North Africa, and Art+Feminism.
