License tagging for Image:Lough Lene.JPG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Lough Lene.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 14:06, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello everyone interested in this beautiful countryside,

Propose your modifications, corrections, or contributions, that may render the Lough Lene definition more robust.

Best Regards Peter gavigan

Dab problem on Fore

[edit]

Remarks on Fore: This is unclear and imprecise, and an arrogent approch, refusing a name place for hundreds of years to be clearly visible. You are refusing individuals an alternative and existing definition to what Fore means by annexing this to a sub-titled page annexed to one side. YOUR PAGE IS THEREFORE NOT HELPFUL to those searching for more current and more relevant information to them than Fore/Kuru. Please do something that is satisfactory, before it becomes necessay to call an arbitrator. For your benefit, you are invited to investigate the different beauties and realities of FORE upon google, hopefully you will open to another reality. Merry season of Christmas. Peter Gavigan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peter gavigan (talkcontribs)

My dear friend... please calm down! What do you mean exactly? The fact that there is a Fore Abbey and Village in Ireland? Is that it? Well... there are several solutions to this disambiguation problem. One is to keep as is, that is to say, with a link to Fore Abbey in Fore (disambiguation) (already done it). Another, that implies more work, is to make Fore a disambiguation page that links to all the articles listed in Fore (disambiguation), renaming the present Fore article into Fore (people) or Fore (Papua New Guinea). You could also move the present Fore article to one of the ones I just mentioned and then make Fore a redirect page to Fore (disambiguation). I'll do that then. Please, Peter, signed your talk with four tilds (4 times ~). Seasons Greetings! The Ogre 17:26, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Collinstown

[edit]

Hi Peter... It seems I may have overreacted a bit to the links in the Collinstown article. As I usually only have minimal time to contribute to Wikipedia, my edits are usually anti-vandalism & other minor cleanup work. I had come across Collinstown in the Recent Changes page. When I looked at the history of the article I saw that the majority of the recent edits were anonymous users inserting external links to the same domain, into the middle of the article without adding citations at the end of the article (see Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Embedded_HTML_links). As a result I thought it to be the work of someone simply trying to use Wikipedia promote their personal site.

Many regards & Happy Holidays, Charlie( t | e ) 21:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Castletown (disambiguation)

[edit]

You can probably see that the Castletown (disambiguation) links you created are unlike those used in similar circumstances on Wikipedia. While your intentions may have been good, part of helping to build Wikipedia involves taking the time to observe how something is done and taking care to do it correctly. House of Scandal 21:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Are you planning to work on the article progressively? Currently, as it stands, the article qualifies for speedy deletion under WP:CSD for having no content. You may wish to work on the article in a subpage of your user page, or use the {{inuse}} tag on the article. enochlau (talk) 14:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lough Lene Boat

[edit]

The edit summary [1] is unnecessarily aggressive. The article was deleted as a copyright violation, which it was at that time. If you'd asked at WP:DRV noting that your earlier version was not a copyright violation then we'd have reinstated the pre-copyvio version for you. If you want that done, contact me on my Talk.

Replaceable fair use Image:Lough_Lene.jpg

[edit]
Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Lough_Lene.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 00:24, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mullingar crest

[edit]

Hi Peter. Can you confirm the source for this image? And possibly a reference or other supporting source which covers its use as the "Coat of Arms of Mullingar"? Guliolopez (talk) 18:32, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Image:Mullingar crest.JPG

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Image:Mullingar crest.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Mullingar crest.JPG|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. BJTalk 13:01, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Lough_Lene_03.JPG

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Lough_Lene_03.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.
