Image Tagging for Image:Bo_Rai.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bo_Rai.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Formatting

I am growing tired of tidying up after you. Please read WP:MOSNUM, which deals with how numbers should be formatted, especially dates and units of measure. Then read WP:OVERLINK, because countries should not be linked. Finally take a look at the {{cite web}} and {{cite news}} templates as these are much better for formatting references. Any questions, please ask. --Biker Biker (talk) 08:30, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I got confused there last night between thousand separators in Finnish and English. Regarding the external links -- not all of them are mine, and those I put there are considered fair stuff in Finnish edition of Wikipedia. I can't be aware of all Wiki rules and regulations you have here (there are so many of them one cannot keep count). If you get tired sometimes, maybe you should let somebody else do it or take a break from editing. That's why there are other people to help. I'll try to be more careful, though.--Khaosaming (talk) 09:13, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

I got your point now about linking countries. Won't happen again. Thanks. --Khaosaming (talk) 09:18, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Was it really such a big deal? Personally I think, while I appreciate the work of seasoned wiki contributors and their knowledge of the system, plain wikifying is not something to go frantic about. There are people from all over the world trying to make the encyclopedia better. Those same people make mistakes. Not all of them can be expected to be wiki-pros now or in the future. Small, insignificant mishaps do happen, but they are not deliberate or destructive. I could have understood your aggravation better had you notified me here already once or twice and me not taking heed of that. On your own page you propagate politeness, but you don't really practice what you preach. I have learned to expect something like this, yet it cannot possibly stop me from trying to contribute on something I think I know a great deal about and am interested in. Wikipedia can lose a lot of potential contributors if human error is not tolerated a little bit better than this. --Khaosaming (talk) 10:33, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Perhaps I was a little strong in saying "I am growing tired" and in my edit summary in the article. I still stand by the advice though and editors should comply with standards. So ignore my comments but take my advice. --Biker Biker (talk) 10:51, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Yamaha SR400

Curious: Regarding the photo you must posted in the SR400 article -- if this in fact a photo of a US required evaporation canistor, and the SR400 bike has been offered in dark grey paint in the US, how is it that your photo shows the bike in white paint? 842U (talk) 19:15, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

I have no idea about the colour schemes in different markets. I took the photograph in Thailand and yes, it had a canister protruding from the side which caught my attention. I was appalled at the sight of the ghastly plastic contraption (it's almost a dealbreaker, but luckily can be removed without too much effort). The white bike I saw and photographed at a Trat showroom is imported from Japan, I guess. Sorry I can't be of much help. Khaosaming (talk) 04:58, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
