 * I noticed that you have uploaded the image. You must now provide the copyright status of the image. Please take time to read Copyrights. Wikipedia does not accept copyrighted material unless a fair use rationale is provided. Joelito (talk) 19:48, 13 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The last image you uploaded, the San Juan air view, is copyrighted. As such I have nominated it for deletion. I encourage you to upload free images only and to add content which improve articles. Joelito (talk) 20:08, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Hiram Bithorn.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hiram Bithorn.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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. 20:07, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Puerto Rico article again
Hi, again. I noticed you changed the images in the Puerto Rico article. The images you provided are not public images. The Hiram Bithorn image is probably copyrighted and we already have a Hiram Bithorn image which may be used. Also I prefer to leave the Venegas image since he is directly mentinoed in the article. Also the image of Puerto Rico that you added to the geography section is not public domain. I went to the website and it appears all images are copyrighted. I may be wrong, if so please refer me to the correct disclaimer. Again I invite you to add content to the articles. Joelito (talk) 00:11, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
