No content in Category:Fish of the Arctic
[edit]
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Fish of the Arctic, by Zeibura (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Fish of the Arctic has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Fish of the Arctic, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 12:58, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
you tagged this image as GFDL but in the description you claim it was released into the public domain. i cannot find confirmation of either of these licenses and also the source does not link to where the image was found. could you please clarify and update the image page. --Markie 22:55, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Please don't remove the {{No source}}-tag again: prove that it is GFDL and not copyrighted by the associated press.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 18:11, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Saying an article is a keeper because of a large number of google hits is not sound reasoning. See Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. Friday (talk) 05:16, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
GFDL
[edit]Hello. I noticed that quite a few of your pig pictures were labelled as being licensed under the GFDL, whereas there is no evidence of this. Please don't make up copyright permissions. If you have a source for GFDL release, please provide it. Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 17:34, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Bogus entry on MP afd
[edit]Please do put your suspicions about this account in small text after the entry for admin review. As the original author of the article you shouldnt remove it yourself. Actually I think the article is looking a whole better now, partly after the removal of all those other cases. See Wikipedia:Avoid the word "vandal". IMO the afd has improved the article, afds dont just kill articles they can also be the making of them and I am glad that is the case here, SqueakBox 23:55, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Non-free use disputed for Image:Bill Coursey.jpg
[edit]
|
This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:Bill Coursey.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:46, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for reporting Dreddmoto (talk · contribs) to WP:AIV. This noticeboard is for cases of obvious vandalism where the perpetrator has been warned recently. In the case of Dreddmoto, this looks like a long-running, low intensity content dispute over the page title. It is not simple vandalism and there are no WP:3RR issues. Please attempt to discuss proper page naming on the article's talk page and come to consensus with other editors over the page title. If Dreddmoto then continues to revert you can report them for disruption. —dgiestc 23:39, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- On its own this is not vandalism, it's a content dispute over American/British spelling. Please see Wikipedia:Vandalism to learn what is and is NOT vandalism. —dgiestc 23:42, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:Griselda.jpg
[edit]I have been unable to verify that Image:Griselda.jpg was released into the public domain (nor does it seem plausible that the source, corpse.org is the copyright holder). Perhaps, judging by the above similar messages, the image was incorrectly tagged? Have you considered using the {{tl:Mugshot}} template coupled with a fair use rationale statement? Hopefully this can be cleared up. Thanks for your consideration.-Andrew c 15:38, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Black Widow Syndrome.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Black Widow Syndrome.jpg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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. Andrew c 15:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Multiple fair use issues
[edit]Because you reverted all of my work having to do with fair use images, I started second guessing myself. So, I went and sought a third opinion. Because of this support, and the list of unacceptable uses, I stand by my previous edits and would ask you to reconsider your reverts (and your position on "fair use" in general).
First of all, Image:KRISS.jpg. I had tagged this image with {{Replaceable fair use}}. However, you ignored the tag and removed it, even thought it states explicitly Do not remove this tag. and gives steps on how to dispute the tag. I ask you to please follow the process. I believe that this image is replaceable because it is reasonable to assume that someone could photograph this gun.
Next, we have Image:TDI KRISS SuperV XSMG.jpg. One of the unfair uses listed explicitly at Fair Use is "An image of a magazine cover, used only to illustrate the Wikipedia article on the person whose photograph is on the cover." and I believe that equally applies to non-person subjects on magazine covers. The magazine cover can be used fairly to illustrate the magazine, but not the subject of the copyrighted photograph (the gun).
Finally, there is Image:Black Widow Syndrome.jpg. I had tagged the image as not having a fair use rationale, and you added one (which is a good thing generally speaking). However, I believe that you are incorrect in claiming it's use on Black Widow (woman) is "fair use". You state that the book cover is "To illustrate the object in question." Fair use doesn't work this way. The "object in question" is the book itself, not the abstract subject matter of the book. Therefore, the book cover can only be used fairly to illustrate an article on the book itself. I hope this helps explain my actions better to you. Thanks.-Andrew c 22:12, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Image copyrights
[edit]Greetings. I noticed you removed the {{replaceable fair use}} tag from Image:KRISS.jpg. We're not supposed to remove these tags form images. If you think the image is non-replaceable, add the {{replaceable fair use disputed}} tag and describe on the image talk page why you think that no one could create a free image to replace it. I put the tag back on.
I also tagged Image:TDI KRISS SuperV XSMG.jpg as replaceable, because it is being used to show the gun, and I believe a free image could be created to replace it. All the best, – Quadell (talk) (random) 22:14, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:Black Widow Syndrome.jpg listed for deletion
[edit]An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Black Widow Syndrome.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 01:07, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:Griselda1.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Griselda1.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, 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}} 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 17:45, 30 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. The Sunshine Man is now Qst 17:45, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Godmother.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Godmother.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).
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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 01:38, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

TDI KRISS Super V XSMG
[edit]When you ask for administrator review of something, as you did here, it would probably be a good idea to not just revert if the review comes back in a way you didn't want it to. Magazine covers are strictly limited to use (1) discussing the magazine, or (2) discussing the particular publication of a particularly significant cover. In light of the fact that there is already an image on the page, it is certainly redundant, and likely replaceable. "Tough to replace" is not the same thing as "unreplaceable".

rationale
[edit]You need to provide a proper rationale explaining why said book cover can be used, and why it falls under our guidelines. Use Template:Non-free media rationale and WP:FURG to see what you need to do. Wizardman 02:08, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- The license tag isn't an appropriate fair use rationale, by the way. You need to have a better one then that. Wizardman 02:12, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- Meh, I'll allow it. Just wanted it to be airtight since I know there are some admins who look for any loopholes possible to delete fair use images. Wizardman 02:33, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
I linked this at ANI, but I'm pointing it out here, too. The rationale you need is described here: Wikipedia:Image_description_page#Fair_use_rationale.--Chaser - T 02:45, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Image:Griselda.jpg
[edit]I have tagged Image:Griselda.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 21:51, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Thank you for uploading Image:Griselda.jpg,however it would be much appreciated if you could expand or clarify the sourcing information you have provided in the image summary., IN particular, which law enforcment agency took the photo originally? ShakespeareFan00 21:52, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Black widow stuff
[edit]Please don't scold me. If you look at the "categories that are under review for deletion", you'll see that an admin has already closed the discussion as "delete". And if you also look at that same discussion, you will see support for my proposed name change over the original name. I took this as others agreeing with me that "women who murdered their husbands" is more encyclopedic for titles than the slang dysphemism "black widows". So I was WP:BOLD. I can understand you disagreeing with me, but there is no need to scold me, and cite a discussion that has already closed. Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 00:07, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- One more thing, sorry to bug you. Please do not make copy and paste moves as you did with List of Black Widows. Due to the GFDL, we must preserve page history. Right now the article history for the original list is hidden at the now redirected page List of women who have murdered their husbands, and the page history at List of Black Widows is messed up. I'm going to move the original page history back for now, but in the future keep this in mind. There is a move tab at the top of your page. If that doesn't work, you can always contact an admin for uncontroversial moves, or propose a page move for more controversial moves. Hope this helps.-Andrew c [talk] 00:37, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
I have also rolled back an edit at Image:Godmotherback.jpg of yours. Please do not adjust the text inside the tag. You are welcome to follow the instructions on the tag and dispute the tag itself, but don't change the text within the tag. Also, there is no need to move the tag. I placed the tag in the "Fair use rationale" heading, and you moved it under the "Licensing" heading, even though the tag deals with the fair use, not the licensing. Thanks for your consideration.-Andrew c [talk] 00:19, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

- You are not correct. Photos of living people are presumed to be replaceable unless you have a good reason why not, and you didn't even read my tag - there is also a requirement for a rationale for the image's use in Drug lord. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia by removing image cleanup tags without fixing the problems they cite, you may be blocked from editing for disruption. If you don't understand image policy, please ask for help - we're more than willing to help you sort things out - but please don't just revert good-faith edits.

Re: Stalking
[edit]Please note that our definition of "stalking" only extends to following people around to harass them and cause them distress. It explicitly explains that cleaning up violations of policy is one reason we have contributions lists available in the first place. Rest assured that I don't intend to harass you, but until you demonstrate that you understand our fair-use policies I'm well within the bounds of ethics and our policies to keep an eye out. (ESkog)(Talk) 20:30, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- Concur with ESkog. Wikipedia:Harassment clearly states that stalking "does not include checking up on an editor to fix errors or violations of Wikipedia policy, nor does it mean reading a user's contribution log; those logs are public for good reason. Using the edit history of users to correct related problems on multiple articles is part of the recommended practices" ESkog is not stalking you PianoKeys. If you're making consistent errors in observing our fair use policy it is entirely appropriate to check your other image contributions for similar errors. All the best, --Durin 23:33, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
What was your intentions on Love, Honor, and Devour: The Black Widow Syndrome? The tag clearly says two things a) that it is for article, user, and user talk pages only, it is not for article talk pages, so there is no reason to move it to the talk page and b) if your intention was to dispute the prod, simply removing the tag is adequate. Was it your intentions to dispute the prod, or to simply clean up the 'clutter' from the top of the article?-Andrew c [talk] 20:48, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Had you looked at the talk page, or even left a note there, you would have seen that I had already suggested that we consider splitting the article. I am placing a split proposal flag in the article as per WP policies and we shall see what consensus is reached on the talk page per WP procedures. Just chopping out a huge piece of content you think is too much (in an article that isn't too large per WP standards BTW) and making a wisecrack about overzealous in your edit comment is simply your POV and isn't the way we built WP to what is today.

Orphaned non-free image File:Griselda.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Griselda.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 05:06, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:HogKong.jpeg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:HogKong.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 23:48, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
Disputed non-free use rationale for File:TonPig.gif
[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:TonPig.gif. 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:41, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
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.
