Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia!

In this discussion you mentioned a Russian friend. What exactly did he say? Has he actually seen the show, do you think? How reliable would you say his information is?

This is not to hassle you. I'm interested to find out. But it may well help to decide the page's fate. Andrewa 18:17, 2 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Hideous indeed
So hideous that i almost turned to stone when you forced me to notice it! [smile] Thanks for the edit. --Jerzy(t) 19:36, 2004 Apr 20 (UTC)

Hello DO'Neil! I have two questions concerning the image Image:Birdparadise111.jpeg: (1) There is no additional information on the origin of this image. Probably it is your own photo? If yes, do you have a higher resolution version. I would like to use it in de:Paradiesvögel in the German Wikipedia. (2) I am not sure, if your determination of the bird is correct. I think it is Raggiana Bird-of-paradise (P. raggiana), not Greater Bird-of-paradise (Paradisaea apoda). Best wishes --Franz Xaver 17:18, 14 May 2004 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your answer. Now I think the image may not be used in Wikipedia at all. I have found a website with this image, which might have been your source: and there is a copyrigth notice. Probably the image must be deleted, as well as Image:Wilsonbirdparadise.jpeg which probably is from . Best wishes --Franz Xaver 19:17, 18 May 2004 (UTC)


 * Whoops, I didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing it out; they probably should be deleted. DO'Neil 21:01, 18 May 2004 (UTC)

Hi, DO'Neil, Not objecting to your edits on the Pius VI article, but the old version wasn't taken from a foreign language; it was lifted from the 1911 Britannica. Complete with the typos in the scanned version that's on the Web, such as Galilean for Gallican (fixed a while ago). Some stuffy old prose there, to be sure. Dandrake 19:38, May 20, 2004 (UTC)

You are now designated the High Priest of the Spoon! and I will call on you if I feel the need for Cortes (yeah, you heard me :) to castrate someone with a wooden spoon. -- Jim Regan 04:25, 24 May 2004 (UTC)

Tenochtitlan
Wow! Lots of changes to Tenochtitlán. Actually, by doing so, you've come down very hard on the side of the hispanistas vs. the indigenistas with respect to the pronunciation of those names (Tenochtitlan and Teotihuacan in particular -- I suppose you have to start somewhere). In recent years there's been something of a movement in Mexico to reclaim the more authentic Nahuatl pronunciation with the accent on the penultimate rather than the (Castilianified) last syllable. For the two sides of the debate, take a look (on the Academia Mexicana de la Lengua website) at what Miguel León-Portilla (indigenista) says here and how Yáñez (hispanista) rebukes him in the last para. It's been a long while since I've heard anyone pronounce it 'Tenochtitlán', but maybe that's just the company I keep.

Dunno. Perhaps you were aware of all that already and wanted to come down heavily on that side. FYI just in case you didn't. –Hajor 14:32, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I wasn't aware that "Tenochtitlán" was viewed as Castilianified. Interesting. However, I'm not preferring that spelling out of any sort of racism (I have nothing against Nahuatl speakers, and why should I?), but from what I've read in books, Tenochtitlán is more common in English. I've seen Teotihuacan a few times, though. DO'Neil 06:33, Jun 15, 2004 (UTC)

And the problem is, when you see them without an accent in English, you're never quite sure whether they're doing it out of conviction or because of house style (or ignorance) whereby accent marks are omitted. Presumably most serious books will be taking their cue from Spanish publications and, if this is a movement, it'll take some time to filter through into English. –Hajor 14:02, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Education in East Germany
What a great article. Keep up the good work, don't see many practically Featurable articles after a single edit.--Oldak Quill 12:04, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Why did you move Mikhail Frunze to his name including his patronymic? Do you see Vladimir Putin at Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin? Everyking 07:55, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)


 * Also Pavlik Morozov. Everyking 08:03, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)


 * On #wikipedia we decided that patronymics should be used in titles. Others from the period (Lev Borisovich Kamenev, Grigory Yevseyevich Zinoviev and Aleksandr Vasilevich Kolchak, for example) have their patronymics in their article names. Do you suggest that I should change them back to first name - last name? DO'Neil 08:23, Jun 19, 2004 (UTC)


 * It certainly makes more sense to me to title articles according to the most common and basic form of the name. Do you intend to move Putin as well, and Yeltsin, Gorbachev, etc.? I think that would look absurd. Everyking 09:01, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)


 * Hmm. I will move them back to first name - last name, along with Lev Borisovich Kamenev, Grigory Yevseyevich Zinoviev and Aleksandr Vasilevich Kolchak. It's inconsistent to have Vladimir Putin and Pavlik Trofimovich Morozov, you're right. DO'Neil 09:11, Jun 19, 2004 (UTC)

Technical limitations
Please limit the use of the technical limitations link to cases where the MediaWiki software (not just it's current English language Wikipedia configuration) prevents the use of a particular title. You can generally test to see whether it is a software limitation by trying to create the page at test.wikipedia.org. Limitations of policy (like use English for page names) or of configuration (UTF8 support at en wikipedia is currently partial) aren't software limitations. Jamesday 21:24, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Avrolincoln.jpeg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status?

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started the Free the Rambot Articles Project which has the goals of getting users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to... using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) version 1.0 and 2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to the GFDL (which every contribution made to Wikipedia is licensed under), but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles (See the Multi-licensing Guide for more information). Since you are among the top 1000 most active Wikipedians, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles.
 * 1) ...all U.S. state, county, and city articles...
 * 2) ...all articles...


 * Nutshell: Wikipedia articles can be shared with any other GFDL project but open/free projects using the incompatible Creative Commons Licenses (e.g. WikiTravel) can't use our stuff and we can't use theirs. It is important to us that other free projects can use our stuff.  So we use their licenses too.

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the   template (or    for public domain) into their user page, but there are other templates for other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:


 * Option 1
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace   with   . If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know at my talk page what you think. -- Ram-Man 17:58, Nov 30, 2004 (UTC)

Review request
Hi :) If you have a few minutes it be great if you could have a look at West Papua and the re-name proposal at the bottom of its discussion page. Any input, edits, or opinions be great.

I've seen the edits that you've made to some of the articles I've written. I always check out the person who edits anything related to me and I checked you out. I'm really impressed with your ideals and with the fact that you are facinated with Latin-American topics. I have dedicated all of my energy to the topic of Puerto Rico, which is my specialty. Since you're Irish, I was wondering if you would be interested in writting about the Irish migration to Puerto Rico in the mid 1800's. The Spanish government fearing an uprising from the native Puerto Ricans, encouraged the people of Ireland and Corsica (That's where my descendents came from) to migrate to the island, hopeing that they would be loyal to the Spanish Crown. Even though they adopted the language and the culture, they kept their surnames: O'Neil, Cole, McKintock, Garrity etc. By the way, my grandaughter is half-Irish. So, what do you say? Tony the Marine


 * I'd love the opportunity to write about it, and I'll begin Irish immigration to Puerto Rico if I can get enough information on the subject. DO'Neil 05:19, Mar 16, 2005 (UTC)

I really enjoyed reading what you've written so far. I would like you to tell me if any of the following surrnames are Irish. Class, Coll, Bernier, Harrison, Lind, Lowell, Watring, Due, Brinn, Bosch, Brocco, Barry, Cofer or Cole. Isn't it interesting that when a Latin-American is born in Latin America his name will contain accents but if he is born in the U.S.A., its without accents? Write to me in my talk page. Take care my Irish friend Tony the Marine

Italian aircraft
Hi DO'Neil - Italian aircraft are sadly a bit neglected here, so thanks for adding another two! I just wanted to point out the new standard format for specifications that's been in use since last August - WikiProject Aircraft/page content. I'd be a real help if you could use this layout for your next aircraft articles. Cheers! --Rlandmann 01:20, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Just out of curiosity, why has the table fallen out of favour? I think it looks quite a bit nicer than just having "raw statistics". DO'Иeil 08:05, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * Also, I just created Piaggio P.108 (another Italian bomber!). I used the table because I wasn't sure what to do, I can change it to something else if that would be preferable. DO'Иeil 10:05, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * The main argument against the table was that it's harder for new editors to work with. Furthermore, they were/are vulnerable to changes in the Wiki software - if you take a look around, you'll see plenty of aircraft articles with data tables now in a font that's too small to easily read - this happened because the table was designed before Wikipedia's last "facelift". Finally, a couple of WikiProject Aircraft participants (the prime movers behind the changeover) argued strenuously for text-based specifications on aesthetic grounds. To see an example of the new format implemented for a WWII bomber, take a look at Petlyakov Pe-8. Cheers --Rlandmann 22:45, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Reference desk query - Hungarian WWII propaganda poster
If you are still looking for the answer of your query about the Image:Azertis.jpg war propaganda poster: "Azért is" means "In spite of all" in this context - it is an expression of defiance. Either because in the war the tides were turning against the fascists in Hungary -- or, if it is an earlier poster, as an expression of defiance against the unjust terms of the treaty of Trianon (equivalent of Versailles treaty for Hungary) after WWI. The chains might represent the bonds of this surrender treaty. - Marcika 04:21, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)

You uploaded these images under the tag PD-Germany. Unfortunately, the wording of the tag was inaccurate, and the images are not yet PD.

20 Very sorry

Hello, I've been away from Wikipedia for some months and I've recently come back. I was looking through my talk page and noticed that you'd complained that I'd removed 90% of your work from Tomorrow (band). I'm extremely sorry about this, it wasn't intentional at all. I assume I intended to move the bulk of the article below the introduction I had written, but somewhere along the way the rest was deleted and I didn't remedy it.

Fair use outside of article space
Hi. I see that one of your user pages includes one or more "fair use" images (e.g. Image:Americaskeleton.jpeg).

I was wondering if you could provide the source of this image&mdash;someone has written wishing to reprint it but does not know where it came from to attribute it or ask about the copyright status. Also, all fair use images must be sourced to comply with fair use guidelines. Thanks, Mindspillage (spill yours?) 16:07, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Not much trouble, just told her that sorry, we weren't sure. Also, the book would almost certainly have sufficient source information on it; no reason to delete if you could look that up. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 17:51, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the excellent photo. I've been hoping someone would take something like that. My plan is to feature the article with that photo on the New Zealand portal on New Year's day.-gadfium 05:41, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Shoebill.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:Shoebill.jpeg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Chick Bowen 05:48, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm a 19yo student from Poland (cultural studies about Spain and Latin America), and after having seen just a small part of your articles I'd be delighted to help you in anyway you'd like - regarding Poland, as well as Latin America or military history. I'm not a wikipedist myself, but - not being humble - I often find my knowledge of many very strange topics quite profound and would like to share it, if anybody's interested. Oh, btw, i'm a bit of leftist myself. Ok, a big one. Juru

Location of Artillery piece
Hiyas, was just looking at your picture of the M96nA German artillery piece, and was wondering where this gun is on display. Its physical location isn't mentioned over at. Cheers, Bezapt 10:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


 * The M96nA I photographed is actually on display in a war veterans' retirement home here in Sydney, Australia, just outside the home's museum. It's next to a Bofors AA gun, which I also photographed and uploaded to Wikipedia. If you're in Sydney yourself, I could give you an exact address if you'd like. Sorry it took me so long to reply to your question. —DO&#39;Neil 02:56, 20 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi again! was just wondering if at least the suburb where the retirement home is could be added to the picture page, just to help anchor the whereabouts of the artefact in space & time! Bezapt 03:47, 20 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I've added the specific location to the Commons description page. —DO&#39;Neil 03:50, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Shamisen photo
Cool. We don't have street shamisen players that I know of in the U.S., though we had shamisen player give a concert at my univ. a few weeks ago. Try to find out who the guy is and how he picked up the instrument next time you see him. I think the photo from the other angle was better than the one you put in the article. Badagnani 06:59, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

He's probably Japanese, as probably only an extremely small number of gaijin take this thing up (as opposed to the shakuhachi and koto, which are more popular). I've played the sanxian, which is the original Chinese verison of the instrument, with a snakeskin (as opposed to cat skin) face. Are you in Seedney?

Image:Dumitru Prunariu.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dumitru Prunariu.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.

Image:Italianeastafricamap.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:Italianeastafricamap.jpeg. 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. —Bkell (talk) 12:24, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Identified Aircraft
Hi Daniel,

Just a heads-up that I identified your aircraft for you on the Ref Desk. It is Fokker F28 VH-ATG, belonging to the Australian Federal Department of Transport. It was sold to a Canadian airline as C-FTAY in 1998. FiggyBee 22:07, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Image:Image:2ofthe47ronin.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:2ofthe47ronin.jpeg. 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 21:46, 13 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Madmedea 21:46, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Please note that it is possible that the image on your page is included vie a template or usebox. In that case, please find a free image for the template or userbox. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 08:40, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Daddydontdrink.jpeg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Daddydontdrink.jpeg. 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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:45, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Rodolfograziani.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Rodolfograziani.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

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 04:33, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:János_Kádár.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:János_Kádár.jpeg. 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 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 13:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Lokal_Profil 13:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

non-commercial use only
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Felipequispe.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-2.5 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Media copyright questions. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Azertis.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Azertis.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 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 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 non-free media 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. Rlest 12:02, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Boris vladimirski lenin in red dawn.jpg)

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).

Replaceable fair use Image:Georgi Ivanov.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Georgi Ivanov.jpg. I noticed 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 even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Remember the dot (talk) 01:53, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Mexempire2.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Mexempire2.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 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.

A tag has been placed on Image:AshRaTempelselftitledalbum.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

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.

File source problem with File:Pedrodeampudia.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Pedrodeampudia.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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:25, 8 January 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Magog the Ogre (talk) 20:25, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:KarlEduardVonSchnitzlerScreenshot.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:KarlEduardVonSchnitzlerScreenshot.jpg. 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.

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.

Thank You for the Wikipedia Picture
Hello, My name is Duane Hurst and I recently made a free (non-commercial) English web site to share information with people. I added links to your Wikipedia/Wikimedia freeware picture. I also gave credit to you on my web pages for your work. Thank you for sharing with the public. My website is:

http://www.freeenglishsite.com/

I add pictures such as yours to one of the following major sections of my site: 1. World section - contains information and over 10,000 images of every world country and territory. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/world/index.htm

2. USA section - contains information and images of every USA state and territory. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/world/usa/index.htm

3. English section - "Mel and Wes" lessons in conversation format. Stories are located in various USA states and world countries such as China, England, Germany, Japan, Mexico and Thailand. Each lesson has many slang terms and idioms, which I link to my Slang Dictionary. This eventually will have over 5,000 terms. Currently, it has about 3,000 slang and idioms. I regularly add new lessons and slang terms. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/english/lessons/index.htm Slang Dictionary link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/english/slang/Eslang_a.htm

Prior to retirement, I taught English at several private and public universities in the United States.

Please share this free site with your friends. I hope all will enjoy the pictures and find the English information useful. Sincerely, Duane Hurst in Utah, USA

Better source request for File:Szczecin CoA.png
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia: You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

 Thanks for uploading File:Drukqs album cover.png. 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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

File permission problem with File:Sakhalin map.png
Thanks for uploading File:Sakhalin map.png, which you've attributed to Online Map Creation. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org, 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use 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. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy.

File:Szczecin Flag.png needs authorship information
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Szczecin Flag.png appears to be missing information as to one (or more) of the following :
 * 1) The author or creators of the work, (including information as to the author's lifespan).
 * 2) Where and how this particular version was obtained.
 * 3) When the work was created,

If you did provide such information, it is currently confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template.

Please also add authorship and sourcing to other files you created or uplopaded. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log].

Speedy deletion nomination of Fordlândia


A tag has been placed on Fordlândia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.thevintagenews.com/2016/05/31/abandoned-in-the-rainforest-henry-fords-fordlandia-was-to-be-inhabited-by-10000-people-to-secure-a-source-of-cultivated-rubber-for-his-cars/2. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File source problem with File:Boroevic.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Boroevic.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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. mattbr 06:32, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
