Uploaded images
I noticed you have uploaded images of Francesca Hawkins and Carla Fotheringham, and tagged them with:  I, the creator of this work, hereby grant the permission to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts. Subject to disclaimers.

Unless you are the creator of the images (i.e., unless you took the pictures yourself) you cannot tag them with GFDL-Self (please read the link in the text above). The picture of Francesca appears to be from a newspaper article, while the one of Carla appears to be a publicity photo. While you may be able to make a case for fair use, you can't tag them as GFDL-Self. In addition, please supply a source for the images. Thanks. Guettarda 21:39, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Add the sources of the images and I'll try to come up with a fair-use rationale. Guettarda 21:43, 4 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, done. Also - I assume you're a Trini?  You might want to check out Caribbean Wikipedians' notice board.  Guettarda 00:27, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Magellam.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Magellam.jpg. The image description 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.

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.

Category:Living people
I noticed you removed this category from the Colleen Holder article. I just wanted to let you know that this category is supposed to be on all articles about living people, as a way of (hopefully someday) monitoring articles about living people to avoid libel and the like. And thanks for all the good work on TT media articles. Guettarda 18:58, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem. It isn't a big deal.  I just thought I'd explain to you why I was undoing your change.  Guettarda 05:40, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

TTT (network)
Someone started the above article - I was wondering if you could have a look at it and try to bring it up to standard a little. Thanks. Guettarda 15:29, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks - I had mentioned it to Sylvestter as well. Guettarda 14:35, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Nanton
The article is at Samson Nanton, but he's called Sampon Nanton in the article. I noticed that Guardian uses both spellings, although the Express (which, as his former employer probably knows better) uses Sampson. Should it be Sampson? Guettarda 18:46, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Interesting. I hadn't realised that.  Guettarda 14:36, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Re
The information may well be accurate, but it cannot be added to a Wikipedia article without a credible source. Actually, all information in Wikipedia articles should be referenced, as described in Verifiability. However, unreferenced negative biographical information about living people is heavily disfavored by Verifiability:"Biographies of living people need special care because biographies containing unsourced material might negatively affect someone's life and could have legal consequences. Remove unsourced material about living persons immediately if it could be viewed as criticism, and do not move it to the talk page." Please do not add this information to the article again unless a credible source is provided. Thank you. John254 20:17, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes. John254 20:54, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Francescahp.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Francescahp.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.

Unspecified source for Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then you need to specify who owns the copyright, please. If you got it from a website, then a link to the website where it was taken from 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 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 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 16:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 16:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Yamla 16:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mostbeautifulwoman.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 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. Yamla 16:15, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I see you have uploaded a new image at Image:Francescahp2.jpg. You have not, however, changed the licensing on the article. This needs to be updated to reflect the change. If you need help with this, let me know. Thanks. Guettarda 20:19, 8 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Did you take the picture? If you did, then you can release the picture under the GFDL, which is the preferred license.  You can add GFDL to the page.  Guettarda 00:47, 9 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see. Then you just need to change the text on the image page to reflect this.  Guettarda 13:51, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Colleenh.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Colleenh.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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. Videmus Omnia 04:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:Jdsellierlogo2.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Jdsellierlogo.jpg. The copy called Image:Jdsellierlogo.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 19:30, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Jdsellierlogo2.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Jdsellierlogo2.jpg. 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:36, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Wintvanchors.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Wintvanchors.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. 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 23:21, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Parltvtt.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Parltvtt.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Crushtheturtle! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 6 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:

Proposed deletion of Eyshueme Ogunbanke


The article Eyshueme Ogunbanke has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Googled and went to the official Gayelle website, no legitimate references to this person. TiMike (talk) 19:47, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TiMike (talk) 19:47, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
