License tagging for File:GasBuddyGasPriceMap.png
Thanks for uploading File:GasBuddyGasPriceMap.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:08, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
Hi, noting the page you are creating at User:Gasbuddy/Sandbox, your username, and your post at MCQ where you admit to being an owner/operator of the site Gasbuddy.com, I would like to bring to your attention some of our policies that you should read before you edit any further.


 * 1) Conflict of interest - you should not be editing articles about subjects you have a vested interest in.


 * 1) Spamming - creating articles about subjects you have a commercial interest in is considered spamming.


 * 1) Username - usernames are for individual/personal use and should not reflect group/company editing which is forbidden.

For you to continue editing on wikipedia you will need to file an immediate username change request. You will also need to agree to stop writing about your company, if your company is notable enough for inclusion, someone else will write and article about it. You can propose that an article be created and supply material, but you need to declare your involvement in the company to avoid COI problems. Continued editing without filing a namechange will lead to your account being blocked. Any questions please ask. Mfield (Oi!) 22:25, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:GasPriceHeatMapLarge-600.png
Thanks for uploading Image:GasPriceHeatMapLarge-600.png I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL 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 [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org 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 did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org].

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 Image copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 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 uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —teb728 t c 22:34, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Blocked
Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia, because it appears to be mainly intended or used for promotional purposes of a company or group. See FAQ/Organization and Conflict of interest''.

In addition, accounts are for individuals only, not for companies or groups or other collective editing, and your username should reflect this.

Wikipedia is not a promotion website; this kind of activity is considered spam on Wikipedia, and forbidden by policies, and usernames that appear to be promotional also violate our username policy. Editing on Wikipedia is not intended to be used to promote anyone, or anything, and its use for that purpose will result in blocking of the account involved.

If you feel that there has been a mistake, please appeal this block by adding the text   or contacting the administrator who has blocked you. Your reason should include a clear response to this issue and a new username you wish to adopt that does not violate our username policy. Please check that your new username has not already been taken here. Stifle (talk) 14:12, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
