File source and copyright licensing problem with File:ShapeClock 0.png
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:ShapeClock 0.png. 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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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:Non-free content, 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 created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 00:58, 27 November 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 00:58, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
License tagging for File:ShapeClock 4.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:ShapeClock 4.gif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 11:08, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
Self-promotion
[edit]Please don't use Wikipedia to promote your own inventions. We are an encyclopedia, writing neutral articles based on reliable, independent sourecs about subjects that have a demonstrable notability. If and when your inventions become notable, other people will write about them here, based on sources in reliable media like newspapers or professional magazines. Until then, Wikipedia should not have an article on them. Fram (talk) 13:54, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
I removed nearly all rererences to my name. No my clock is called "modern shape clock". Could it be published in wikipedia now?

- No. It needs reliable, independent sourecs to show that it is notable. . . Mean as custard (talk) 09:57, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
