User talk:AFNETWORKING

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are a few helpful links to start you off: Avoiding common mistakes, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style, Policies and guidelines, Help, Merging pages.

If you need help or are curious about something, feel free to ask on my talk page or the village pump. You can sign your name and a date stamp on comments using four tildes ( ~ ). If you have any further questions, feel free to ask, and I hope you enjoy being a Wikipedian! Andre ( talk ) 23:46, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Dale W. Meyerrose
MG Dale W. Meyerrose is a US General and his biography is in the public domain. The site you pulled his bios from, the AFCEA site, pulled his bios from the AF public domain bios. AFCEA did not create this biography.
 * Oops. Sorry. The copyvio notice is just for possible though. Thanks, raylu 00:57, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

OK, I've marked it as part of the public domain with the U.S. Gov marker...I hope it's right now. I've also wikified it a bit. raylu 01:58, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

The National Park Service logo is appropriate for the DoD. I will remove it. Why would you put a link to AFCEA with a National Park Service logo? First of all, it is not required, second, it is inappropriate. Thanks for the nicer formatting, BTW.

Image tagging
Could you please tag the image Image:Dale w. meyerrose.jpg you uploaded with the appropriate tag? Thanks. --HappyCamper 22:39, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk page conduct
Your removal of my comment on Talk:Tim Bass was inappropriate. Do it again and I'll submit a RFC. There's no reason we can't work together to make Tim Bass a NPOV and free of copyright violation article. --Quasipalm 21:38, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

There is no copywrite violation.
Q, you are doing "copyright" to justify your actions. There is no copywrite violation. If you want to ask Tim Bass about copyright, send him an email. Don't destroy the page that is little different than most other pages here.


 * If you want to request that Tim Bass make his website public domain, feel free. Then we can copy his information and put it in Wikipedia, but only after it has been turned into an encyclopedia article.  His webpage is obviously promotional material (as it should be) -- but that's not appropriate here.  --Quasipalm 02:43, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Donahue wj.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Donahue wj.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media 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 media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, 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. Thank you.

Unspecified source for Image:Dale_w._meyerrose.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dale_w._meyerrose.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 Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See 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 Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:53, 7 February 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU ≈ talk 00:53, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
