User talk page
Just in case you don't know, while you are allowed to clear material off of your user talk page, it's usually considered a breach of etiquette: it tends to suggest you are trying to hide something. - Jmabel | Talk 01:40, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The potential issue wasn't removing the "silly welcome thing", it was removing the bot-generated warning about the image; the same image that brought non-bot me here, for more or less the same issue. - Jmabel | Talk 03:00, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Huh. Funny, I don't even remember deleting that...thanks for the assist, anyway! abraham 03:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Kiki and Herb
Thanks for greatly expanding Kiki and Herb. However, the rights claim to the image that you added is unclear. When you say it was "obtained courtesy of Karpel Media Group and Kiki & Herb", do you mean you had their explicit permission? If you have that permission via email, great; reproducing the email (with email addresses suppressed, replaced by names) in the licensing section of the image page would be very helpful. Meanwhile, I've added a slightly more specific fair use claim.

Sorry to hassle you on this, but we are constantly plagued with issues of copyright violations in images. - Jmabel | Talk 01:40, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Lopate.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Lopate.gif. 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 , 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 any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. – Quadell (talk) (random) 03:51, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Sun-City.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sun-City.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Kikiherb1.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Kikiherb1.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 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 non-free media 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. Rettetast (talk) 16:16, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Budd Mishkin


The article Budd Mishkin has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP:BASIC, created by WP:COI account"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
