License tagging for Image:BicentennialTower.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:BicentennialTower.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. 18:06, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia articles, such as those you made to Bicentennial Tower, even if your ultimate intention is to fix them. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you.--TREYWiki 21:17, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:Cedar breaks Golden-Mantled Ground Squirrel.JPG. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Cedar breaks Golden-Mounted Ground Squirrel.JPG. The copy called Image:Cedar breaks Golden-Mounted Ground Squirrel.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account.

Re: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I reverted your edits to the Pittsburgh article (cityscape section). The text that you're going back to doesn't comply with the Wikipedia Manual of Style:

The 'see also' link to Downtown Pittsburgh should not be in the middle of the section, where you put it. See also links should only go at the top of sections. Furthermore, you put a redundant link, with a 'see also' link immediately above a link in the actual article text on the next line, so it's unnecessary.

The bold texting of the various neighborhoods is also unnecessary; the manual of style actually goes against the use of bold text for emphasis, in favor of italics.

The Roberto Clemente bridge photo was not deleted from the section, but moved to the top of the 'geography' section; you added it back to the 'cityscape' section without removing it from above, resulting in an unnecessary duplication of the image.

Overall, there's too many images in this section, which is why I moved the bridge photo above, as well as removed the Allegheny river panorama photo. The panorama photo was left justified, and with all the images on the right, made for a very awkward arrangement of text flowing around the images. I'm not sure where to put the panorama photo; if you can think of a place (maybe a sub/daughter article?), then by all means, do it. But I don't think it looks right where it was; as a matter of fact, I still think that they cityscape section has too many images.

Image without license

Unspecified source for Image:ClearwaterBeachPanorama1.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:ClearwaterBeachPanorama1.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 01:27, 20 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? --MifterBot ^{(Talk • Contribs • Owner)} 01:27, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NowCommons: File:Maid of the mist10.JPG

File:Maid of the mist10.JPG is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Maid of the mist10.JPG. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Maid of the mist10.JPG]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 20:33, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:MigrationofPresqueIsle.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:MigrationofPresqueIsle.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.
