Replaceable fair use File:AHK USA map.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:AHK USA map.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 18:05, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Ways to improve German American Chambers of Commerce (GACC)
Hi, I'm Jrcrin001. ChamberNY, thanks for creating German American Chambers of Commerce (GACC)!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This article seems to be a more accurate English translation of the English portion of the GACC web page. By doing this, the article is in violation of copyright laws, and many Wikipedia rules. I have taged the article with maitainence tags. Please use the links to fix the issues. Use your own words. Focus on Who, what, where, how and why for this article. Other reviewers would focus on speedy delete. Please take the short opprotunity to fix this article. And I am sorry, but I have my own articles and areas for re-write. I will watch this article for improvements.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

German American Chambers of Commerce
I did a redirect for the article German American Chambers of Commerce to Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce. You recently worked on this article. The primary reason for the rewrite and redirect was to save the information from being deleted. Please see the current redirect maintainence tags in history. The goal was to take 2 related stub articles and to make a better article. I also cleaned up the main article. Input and help is always welcome. Jrcrin001 (talk) 19:07, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:AHK USA logo.png)
Thanks for uploading File:AHK USA logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:02, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
