Orphaned fair use image (Image:Elisabeth Shue.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Elisabeth Shue.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz S. (Talk) 18:08, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:AMD64 Logo.svg
Thanks for uploading Image:AMD64 Logo.svg. 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.

Please go to the image 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 '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 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.  Telly addict  17:26, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use disputed for Image:AMD64 Logo.svg
Thanks for uploading Image:AMD64 Logo.svg. 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. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 04:52, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Booker T. & the M.G.s/Booker T. & The M.G.'s
Hi,

I am trying to determine who created the redirect page that enforced the title of the article about this band as Booker T. & the M.G.s. I noticed from the edit history that you created a redirect, noting that the apostrophe in Booker T. & The M.G.'s is grammatically incorrect. Whether or not the apostrophe is incorrect (and I'm fairly sure it is), it is the way the band preferred to spell their name. Wikipedia does not claim that on the grounds that the Beatles couldn't spell, therefore the article about them should be entitled The Beetles. I have issued a request to delete the redirect away from the page called Booker T. & The M.G.'s, on the grounds that, correct use of apostrophe or not, it is the way the band's name is spelled on the majority of their official releases and therefore presumably reflects how they liked to spell it themselves. My ultimate aim is to rename the article itself to the way the band spelled the name, but I can't do that until the redirect is deleted. As a courtesy, I am informing you of the request for deletion, which you can find here. I hope you will appreciate that accuracy must take precedence over how the band admittedly should have spelled their name. Lexo (talk) 00:55, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * This is just to note that after carrying out a thorough survey of the band's album covers, I have concluded that I was wrong to think that they "liked to spell their name" as "Booker T. & The M.G.'s". The evidence strongly suggests that they didn't care very much how it was spelled, but the most consistent features of the spelling are a capital "T" in "The" and the controversial apostrophe in "M.G.'s".  So I have requested the page move out of a sense of overall consistency of style, not because I think it's the "correct" name.  In any case, the current page name does not reflect the way the band's name was most commonly spelled, so the page move request still holds.  There is a discussion under way right now at WP: Requested moves, if you're still interested.  Lexo (talk) 13:31, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:IAUDIO Logo.svg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:IAUDIO Logo.svg. 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. Courcelles 05:24, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
