License tagging for Image:BruceHornsby.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BruceHornsby.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:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

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 Media copyright questions. 04:05, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I've attempted to correct problem. My first image uploading, sorry.  Please advise if further attention is needed.  Thanks. BoaTeeth 05:14, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:BruceFace.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BruceFace.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-no-disclaimers 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 12:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 12:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:HornsbyNoise.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:HornsbyNoise.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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. Nv8200p talk 12:45, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Images for deletion
Please read Fair use if you have not yet and look at the policy section, especially number 10 and the counterexamples, especially number 8. Another good article is fair use. Your Hornsby images like Image:BruceHornsby.jpg are not sourced. You have to list the copyright holder for the image. Also, an image merely for identificaton is not fair use. You have to have commentary or critism about the image. See Oklahoma_City_bombing for an example. Commentary on the copyrighted image to the right is incorporated into the article.

Remember, all images after 1923 are copyrighted by default. Display on the web does not make them public domain, GFDL or Creative Commons, unless there is specific release by the copyright holder to that effect. -Hope this helps Nv8200p talk 04:19, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

AUTOBLOCK OF ENTIRE (shared) IP ADDRESS IS UNREASONABLE...examine 72.84.195.236 and BoaTeeth contributions
Please adjust autoblock to a permanent block of username "BigHairyPoo", and release the autoblock of this shared IP address. Constructive edits have been made for months now, and there is an ongoing discussion about image documentation in the Bruce Hornsby article...a discussion which 72.84.195.236 and BoaTeeth have vested roles in and are now blocked from participating in. Please take time to research an IP (just one click away!) before taking such extreme measures! BoaTeeth 22:07, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Image:BruceFace.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BruceFace.jpg. 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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 48 hours after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Bob 23:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Onus is on you, not I
I am afraid that you are wrong in assuming that I should help you replace the unfree images you upload. The onus is squarely on your shoulders, not on myself to provide replacements for unfree images that you have uploaded. The source that you have given for the images you uploaded do not state that they are cc-by-2.0. You have incorrectly tagged them. Also, the source for Image:TreyAnastasio.jpg states that it is licensed under a Noncommercial, thus the tagging on wikipedia is incorrect, as stated on that image page, and it should also perhaps be deleted. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I am assuming good faith in that you are unaware of copyright image policy on Wikipedia. Perhaps you should read Image copyright tags. We cannot just tag images with copyright licenses that are incorrect. If you do not wish your talk page filled with instructions on how to deal with your uploads, perhaps you could correctly tag the images when you upload them. As you are obviously familiar with Flickr, there is a search option with which you could find free images. This is not harrassement, simply, if I see a user uploading a couple of images under incorrect tags, then I check your upload log to see if there are more of the same. A tactic employed by many people here. --Bob 18:04, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The three images that you just uploaded, the album cover requires a source and the two from flickr used the wrong license. They should have been tagged cc-by-nc-sa-2.0 as they use a Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 license. I have retagged them accordingly. --Bob 23:22, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case
You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Suspected sock puppets/BoaTeeth for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. -- Bob 20:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Response to your question
Yes, I'm aware. I've already responded. It's about the images.

I like your edits to Bruce Hornsby (I've been editing here and there via anonymous IP), but not for some time. It was really cool to come back to the article this week and find so much more there. It's really solid work.

I think I have the image thing worked out. Si at http://www.bruuuce.com has been really helpful. Snidleysnide 22:50, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I wish I'd thought of that. Then again, I wouldn't have know how to properly upload and tag the image...Oh well. BoaTeeth 02:18, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and thanks for your kind remarks about my edits. Lots of that stuff was sourced, so it was just a matter of integrating more source material into the article. I'm pleased with how it has turned out. It's great to get the images up there, too. BoaTeeth 02:23, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

GA reassessment of Bruce Hornsby
I have conducted a reassessment of the above article as part of the GA Sweeps process. I have found some concerns which you can see at Talk:Bruce Hornsby/GA1. I have placed the article on hold whilst these are fixed. Thanks. Jezhotwells (talk) 19:15, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
