File copyright problem with File:Felfel1.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Felfel1.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Morgan Kevin J (talk) 19:35, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Felfel1.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Felfel1.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may 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. Morgan Kevin J (talk) 14:57, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Caspian horse
Hi Bathley, looks like you are doing some good cleanup on Caspian horse, but you are not footnoting your citation sources properly for wikipedia. You may want to read WP:CITE to see how they want things formatted around here. I know you are using an acceptable formatting style for a hardcopy written document, but wikipedia has some special formatting syntax that makes things more useful. Just a friendly suggestion to take a peek at the requirements so that others don't have to go in after you and do hours of cleanup (grin). If you need any help, just ask myself or anyone else at WP:EQUINE and we'd be glad to offer hints and suggestions. Montanabw (talk) 22:12, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi Bathleyhill! Just adding on to what Montana said here, your references need to be formatted a bit differently. Perhaps check out Haflinger (horse), Appaloosa or Cleveland Bay to see some of what we're talking about - these articles are rated as featured articles by Wikipedia and so they make good examples. Also, please make sure that your references back up what you've added. For instance, it should be made more obvious that your "Note 11" only backs up the last sentence of the paragraph in which it's used - otherwise, it gets confusing to readers and other editors who might work on the article. Thirdly, please try to do a bit more paraphrasing. Quotes that are multiple paragraphs long (such as the one in the Characteristics section) and could easily be reworded could get your work tagged as a copyright violation, which is not a good thing :) Please let either of us know if you have any questions - Wikipedia guidelines and formatting can be confusing at times and so we're always on the lookout to help a newbie.

 * Thanks for your note on my talk page. Another editor and I have undertaken some cleanup of the Caspian horse page, so I think that most of the issues Montana and I discussed above have been taken care of. However, more sources are always needed in the article, and you may want to check out the links I provided above to see how formatting and sourcing generally works on WP articles, if you haven't done so already.
 * As far as adding pictures, I'm not sure what you mean by images "all of which have the Wikipedia copyright template correctly filled in from the suppliers". Either the uploader needs to be the person who took the image, and they need to upload it saying that they are the photographer and they release all rights to the article, or they need to send an OTRS e-mail stating that they release the rights to an image that you upload. Please let me know if you have further questions. Dana boomer (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
