{{Tintin}} layout

[edit]

Hello Foxcat,
I've begun this survey, listed here, to see if there's any consensus on this template's layout.

Garfield

[edit]

Good job on the Garfield articles. However, I do advise you to use edit summaries more often.--TBC??? ??? ??? 06:49, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Two things

[edit]
  1. Please stop creating redirects from someone's full name to the name they are most commonly known by (for example, Margaret Mary Emily Anne Hyra to Meg Ryan). It is very unlikely that someone will be searching for information about "Dennis W. Quaid" or "Margaret Mary Emily Anne Hyra."
  2. Please stop changing usernames every week or two. As you edit the same types of articles all the time, it's easy to follow you, MascotGuy! tregoweth 21:28, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

While your effort in fixing category titles is appreciated, a better way of changing them is to post the category for renaming on Wikipedia:Categories for deletion, not to assume your name is correct and move everything there.

Also, adding {{cfr}} to a page does nothing unless you make a posting to Wikipedia:Categories for deletion. If you have any questions, please leave a message on my talk page. tregoweth 15:45, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree Image:Carl's_Jr._&_Green_Burrito.gif

[edit]
An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Carl's_Jr._&_Green_Burrito.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Carl's Jr. & Green Burrito.gif

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Carl's Jr. & Green Burrito.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talkcontribsBot) 16:18, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Carl's Jr. & Green Burrito.gif. 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, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:18, 16 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talkcontribsBot) 16:18, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Carl's Jr. & Green Burrito.gif)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Carl's Jr. & Green Burrito.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 18:41, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
