Typeface categorization
Thanks for catching my error with Korinna. I'm not sure why I did that. There are so many articles to deal with I don't remember exactly why I put that one there. If I did it by mistake, I apologize. Looking at it now, it clearly isn't modern. However, it doesn't strike me as a slab either. As for Bell, it shares some features of transitionals, so I felt it was ok (plus there was a source, maybe not a good source, but a source that states the face is less severe than the French models and is now classified as Transitional). The beauty of categories is we don't have to make a typeface fit into a single category. Anyway, any help and input on categorizing typeface articles is great. Thanks very much for contacting me. So, do you think organizing typefaces by foundry is a bad idea? I was thinking that having a category for designer if notable, (say a Matthew Carter or Eric Gill or Hermann Zapf), a category or two for style, a category for date, if applicable, and a foundry or two would be a very solid categorization scheme. I understand that foundry can get real messy, but if we keep a strict hold on things, just focusing on for who the typeface was originally created (or revived), I believe categorizing by foundry can be helpful. However, do you think I should stop and we should delete all those by foundry cats? I think it is of particular interest to list say all the Emigre typefaces together, but as I said, it can get messier with older faces.-Andrew c 04:02, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

More typeface stuff
I guess we should have coordinated our classification efforts a little better on the the typeface font. I realized this after I created Category:Incised typefaces and then, only after the fact, realized you had previously created Category:Glyphic serif typefaces. I thought that this grouping could contain serif and sans-serif faces (for example, Trajan vs. Lithos), and because we didn't have an over abundance of incised typefaces, that we could just group them together. So which category should we keep? I'd be happy to speedy delete mine if you feel that is best. If that happened, would we also create Category:IGlyphic sans-serif typefaces? I personally feel we should just group the two together, but also put them in the general serif or sans-serif category as well. Next, I noticed you added two classification of sans-serif faces. Good work with that. The names scheme are different from mine, so do you think we should CfD rename the serif categories so that they all contain the word "serif" in the category? For example Category:Old style typefaces would become Category:Old style serif typefaces. I really am torn on this, because it seems redundant to my ears that an old style face would be serif. However, it may be easier for someone unfamiliar with type classifications if we mention whether the sub cat is serif or san serif (of course, we wouldn't have to rename slab-serif). Anyway, just my thoughts. Do you have any further ideas or concerns with the categorization project we have begun to undertake?

Finally, would could you mind please speedy tagging Category:Humanist sans-serif? Thanks for your good work!-Andrew c 15:22, 15 May 2007 (UTC)


 * As for the classification, as noted above, I have asked to rename the cats I created. I made a mistake and did not remember the exact name of the glyphic/incised category that you created, mentioned above. As for the 3rd category of sans-serif, the one listed in a few of my sources is Grotesque, so we can have Category:Grotesque sans-serif typefaces to house Helvetica, Univers, Arial, Akzidenz Grotesk, etc. I'll get on that now and start going through the sans-serifs to add classification and foundries. -Andrew c 20:32, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Folio thanks + Barnstar
Thanks for adding an image to Folio. I was going to do it later this weekend, but you beat me to it;) Also thanks for expanding the info. My intention was to go through the Meggs/Carter book and make sure we had an article on all 25 'great' typefaces, and Folio was the first one I came upon. Any word on the multiple specimen image issue? Thanks again for all your great work.-Andrew c 21:37, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Type specimen template?
I really like your type specimens. There are a couple of faces that don't have them yet, and I'd be happy to do them myself, but I'd want them to be Exactly Like Yours. So do you have a template for them sitting somewhere where it's downloadable? And do you have any guidelines/rationale for picking certain colors and certain example words for each face?

Thanks for humoring my anality. SFT | Talk 12:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Confound it, I'm an InDesign user. :) Ah well, I can do them in from scratch in Illustrator. (I've had bad experiences exporting to EPS from my version of InDesign.)


 * But yeah, I'll take those guidelines if they exist. :) SFT | Talk 12:29, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Well, I do use Quark, and I'd be grateful if you could send me the template. There are actually MANY typefaces that don't have specimens yet. I'd like to help with that. -- Evertype·✆ 11:26, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Ranging figures @ Architype Renner
You undid my edit, saying “they are different name for the same thing.” I was very careful to check the definitions before I made my edit: ranging is synonymous with lining, according to (1) Bringhurst, § 3.2.1, and (2) the first paragraph at Text figures. Also, although the image at Architype Renner shows only the text figures, both sets of figures are indeed included. The only small assumption I made in my edit was that both sets were actually designed by Renner, which was the whole purpose of the font package. Please undo your edit unless you have evidence to the contrary. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark R Johnson (talk • contribs) 05:33, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

I heard about this book but thanks for that link. It seems like an interesting topic. Who knows? Maybe it can help with some of the White House article's you've been working hard on? haha thanks again, Happyme22 (talk) 23:14, 6 December 2007 (UTC)


 * You know GearedBull, I've been looking over some of your recent edits and additions and I have been learning a lot from them. I had no idea there was a White House Chief Calligrapher but have always wondered how the invitations were made. And I see the Chief Florist has been around a while as well. The White House is a very interesting topic. Anyway I'd just like to express my thanks for your hard work and dedication.


 * Also, my daughter gave me the Entertaining at the White House with Nancy Reagan book for Christmas. I've been reading a little bit of it, and you'll like to know that it does not only discuss the White House during the Reagan years, as I originally thought. Rather, it starts back with John Adams and goes through different periods of specific aspects of the White House, mostly highlighting state dinners and formal events hosted by the Reagans. It's very interesting and if I find anything notable about state dinners or parts of the White House I'll be sure to let you know. Thanks, Happyme22 (talk) 00:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Vermont republic
Hello - I'm the editor (69.230.120.39) who added some citation requests to the Vermont Republic article, though I'm under a new address now. I appreciate your efforts to improve the article, but I do not share your view that asking for some citation on two important points is "neither helpful or assuming good faith". If it can't be supported, then that's a major problem, isn't it? You've added some references in response to my edits. You don't believe that that sets the article on a firmer basis?

My chief concern about this article is how anachronistic it seems. When I asked why Wikipedia is calling this the Vermont Republic even though it wasn't called that at the time, I didn't mean "Was this ever called the Vermont Republic prior to the internet?" I meant, "Why call it the Vermont Republic when the state itself never called it that at the time in question?" I'm not especially impressed that some writers generations removed from the period have published books claiming it as a republic. Some writers have attempted to revise Bacon's Rebellion into the "First War of American Independence". Doesn't make it so. Fred Van de Water, for example, was just a novelist who wrote history on the side, and I'd consider him hardly qualified to make such a judgment, if he did. Maybe the article should have a section on the historiography of the 1777-91 era, explaining how such judgments developed.

That the article makes enough admissions to allow me to ask such questions is a strength, to which I probably owe you credit. But I can't tell you I find its thrust wholly believable. I'd feel much more confidence in the POV if it cited prestige historians of American republicanism during that period like Bernard Bailyn or Gordon S. Wood, rather than amateur and local historians. 69.237.198.102 (talk) 04:26, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello unregistered user at IP address 69.237.198.102. Thank you for your comments. Your points are well taken. I am not sure that the period of Vermont's independance has been written about by many beyond what you will describe as local historians. The subject is chiefly of concern to the continuingly small number of people who live or have lived at some point in the state or region. A fairly substantial number of twentieth century and contemporary writers, including Bill Doyle, John Duffy, Jan Albers, and a handful of contributors to the Vermont Historical Society's publications, most of them professors at the University of Vermont or the Vermont State Colleges, can be added to Orton and Van DeWater, as examples of writers using the term "Vermont Republic." None of these are misty-eyed mythologists or jokesters. No, they are not ivy leaguers, not all are primarily historians, but their common usage of the term Vermont Republic, to describe the state of Vermont between 1777 and 1791 seems to have emerged as a convention, and I do not see an attempt by any of them to suggest Vermont was ever more than an independant republic by default. In 1777, the United States as a federal union was a good dozen of years away. And, the Continental Congress included representatives of the two states Vermont had torn itself out of. Add to that, the preoccupation with American independance, and it seems easy to understand why Vermont was not hastily ushered in as a new member state. Under the Articles of Confederation, the national government was concerned with issues of debt, interstate tarrifs, national security, and the question of federalism, seemingly preoccupied, and constitutionally unclear what Vermont would be.


 * I mentioned before, that I had on the main Vermont page's discussion page raised the possibility of renaming the article Vermont (independant state), but feared I might be adding to the confusion, particularly with the Second Vermont Republic folks, and creating on Wikipedia something akin to new research. You question "why Wikipedia is calling this the Vermont Republic..." and I feel compelled to point out your participation might be what turn the article in another direction. I observe your issues are first nomenclature, and then citation, v. new research, mythology, or conjecture. I am curious whether, and how, Bailyn and Wood describe Vermont's status in those years.


 * I became interested in this article when I felt that it was being preened by editors with an agenda supporting the Second Vermont Republic as a sort of mythological nation with no intention of joining the Union. Vermont is my homestate, my family has farmed there since the late 18th century. While Vermonter's might pride themselves on being contrarians, and my older relatives might identify themselves as Vermonters first, they are not in any way seperatists. Most can't imagine a United States without Vermont, and many fancy their state as an important part of their country's history and a common sense check on its behavior. CApitol3 (talk) 17:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * CApitol3 I suppose I can weigh in a bit here now that I've been reading Van de Water's Reluctant Republic. I was able to locate a first edition which gives a clear representation of what was first published. First, about Van de Water; he was a early 20th century journalist who retired early to Vermont, knew Kipling's estranged brother-in-law(? - not sure of the relation), wrote books on Kipling, Custer, Vermont.  He did a great deal of research for the Reluctant Republic, using original source documents, but the book reeks of the journalistic style of the period.  By that I mean, where no clear fact occurs Van de Water relies on conjecture to fill in the blanks.  I'm not done with it yet but am well past the point of the creation of the independent State of Vermont.  The is no reference to a republic other than Van de Water's own view of the matter.  It is clear that inferences concerning the Haldiman Negotiations may have something to do with later thoughts that Vermont must surely have been a republic.  These negotiations will need inclusion into the Vermont article since they clarify the balancing act that was going on regarding New York, the Western Union (that area west of today's border between VT & NY and the Glens Falls area) and the Eastern Union (the NH communities briefly admitted to Vermont, the independent state, before Congress indicated to Ira Allen that it would authorize an invasion of Vermont to settle the matter.  I've found that the NY legislature had voted to recognize VT as early as 1781 but that was blocked by NY's then extremely powerful executive, Gov. Clinton, for the next ten years.


 * Missing from most of the pro-republic assertions is the fact that in June of 1775, Ethan Allen and Seth Warner, in Philadelpia, sought permission from the Continental Congress to create a ranger regiment for the Continental Army in the NH Grants called the Green Mountain Continental Rangers. The GMCR were recruited primarily from the existing elements of the Green Mountain Boys, and it was this organization that was created by Congress which also directed that Allen and Warner obtain funding from NY's Congress. The NY Congress authorized funding on July 4, 1775 for the regiment in the NH Grants.  When Warner and Allen returned to Bennington they learned of Warner's election as colonel of the regiment.  Allen received no position and was later attached to NY Gen. Philip Schuyler's staff.  This material may be found in the Vermont Encyclopedia, some of which is online at Google Books.  The pertinent section is found in the hard copy.


 * There seems to be some effort underway to create an impression of some greater separation between Vermont and the then Confederacy of States that pre-dated the US that there is little or no evidence for.


 * I'd raise a question over in the Vermont article last week and it now seems to be even more relevant as I learn more. Essentially it has to do with the name of the Vermont republic article itself. Is there some manner by which the more accurate title may by used while still protecting accessiblity to users looking up a modern colloquialism for the independent State of Vermont? Since the 2VTRep people appear to have specific political objectives that would benefit from some obfuscation of the true status of Vermont at that time, the confusion regarding the 2VTRepublic seems to be secondary to the encyclopedic requirements involved here. PeterInVT (talk) 19:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi PeterInVT. Your weigh-in was welcome. Are you the same person who had previously left me messages under IP addresses? I am not against there being an organization calling for separation having some voice, but the fact is that Second Vermont Republic is at most 5-10 people, with an axe to grind and near to zero public support. We have an interesting question as to what to call this period. As I see use of the term Vermont Republic (or republic) it is an attempt to identify that period under a name a bit separate from the State of Vermont which clearly evokes a U.S. state, which Vermont wasn't in 1777-'91. That period of independence, first chosen out of a desire not to answer to masters in NY and NH, and continuing independently because the Continental Convention did not immediately invite them in, remains an important part of the state's history and still independent and contrary culture.


 * Nearly all factions of the men forming Vermont sought, or supported others seeking, union with the other states. It's been better than 5 years since I have read the Reluctant Republic completely in consecutive order. I understand it to be a product of its time, and though not of first caliber largely accurate and not much wreckless conjecture. I didn't find it an enjoyable book so much as interesting. Jim CApitol3 (talk) 21:32, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Jim. No, I haven't participated in Wikipedia before, although it's been one of those things I've meant to do. I'd found an entry about an artist I know of and he seemed to be getting dragged into the 2VTRepublic thing against his will. I've tried to add some things that I could help with but I'd like to avoid that controversy, if possible. I quickly became aware that there are some contributors that appear to be advancing interests of the 2VTR group and are aggressive in doing so. My background is in research, but not the historic sort.

The matter did spark my curiosity. I even had one of those Vermont Republic plates issued by the VT DMV for the bicentennial, myself. While I could immediately find many references to a Vermont Republic, I didn't find what I would call compelling evidence for it as an official entity.

There is, however, much evidence concerning Vermont's early, continuing attempts to join the Confederacy of States, the chief obstacle for which appears to have been NY's Governor George Clinton. When I look at the machinations of the Arlington Junto, the Allen brothers and the subsequent secret negotiations with British commander-in-chief in Canada, Gen Frederick Haldiman, architect of the Arnold betrayal, it seems that this may be the genesis of Clinton's animus toward the Vermonters, but it would need a lot more work to find if it is a true factor.

The Reluctant Republic is bit of a slog. I probably shouldn't have started there but that seemed to be where the whole republic thing took off from so I thought I'd orient from that point.

It seems premature to make a change but it's looking more to me that the title for the article, Vermont Republic, should be changed to something that approximates the reality of that time, that of a state seeking admission to the Confederacy that had a military unit created by Congress, paid for by NY and comprised of Vermonters, in service to the Continental Army. If the military force had been hired, I could see maintaining the republic idea, but that wasn't what occurred. It was the Congress authorized Green Mountain Continental Rangers that fought at Hubbarton, Bennington and Saratoga, and, frankly, that was news to me. I'd always thought that it was the Vermont militia known as the Green Mountain Boys. It's why I'm inclined to think that something like the "independent State of Vermont" is a more accurate title, as well as being less involved in the present controversy and political effort.

I'm awaiting another text that should have more on this, probably early next week. If you have any suggestions regarding texts on the matter, I'd appreciate hearing them. Pete PeterInVT (talk) 02:07, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Pete, this sounds good, I will think about what other texts you might consider reading. Have you read the catalog to the "Freedom and Unity" exhibition at the Vermont Historical Society's museum in the Pavilion in Montpelier? Another interesting text, though strange at times is Ira Allen's History of the State of Vermont which never uses the word republic! On that subject I would give weight to contemporary writers about Vermont, like John Duffy and William Doyle. Duffy uses the term Vermont Rpublic in his book Vermont an Illustrated History, and has a section titled "A Revolution, A Republic, and Statehood." I believe William Doyle's Vermont Political Tradition does too but I have loaned it out so can't verify just now. So here i guess my point is that it may be a de facto title based on contemporary usage, and could be explained as it presently is. Probably the closest we will find of the time using the word "Republic" is the obverse of the 1785 Vermont copper coins using the passage " VERMONTS. RES. PUBLICA. ." Talk more later. Jim CApitol3 (talk) 04:32, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Jim. I'm expecting the Allen history this weekend and have spoken to the VHS on a number of items.  I'll look into the others.  I'd also looked at res republica and that too doesn't seem to be quite the slam dunk that the name would suggest.  Again, we seem to be dealing with a contemporary reading that does not allow for the true facts.  It's loosely like using the 20ish year old license plate in my barn as evidence because it says "Republic."


 * My point about considering the title change is to not get into the contemporary argument but, rather, be neutral in a fact driven way. That would also seem to be a simpler method that doesn't contribute to an ongoing confusion, laced with political undertones, as it presently does.


 * I'd like to locate more on the Green Mountain Continental Rangers aspect before adding it to the article. I'm arranging a meeting with the curator at the VT National Guard exhibit at Fort Johnson but that won't likely be until late April but that has more to do with the flag history.  I did get the '85 Crampton's Concise Encyclopedia of Flags & Coats of Arms cited in the flag of the Vermont Republic article and there is no such flag in it.  In fact, there are no state flags at all.

Thanks for the suggestions. Pete PeterInVT (talk) 15:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Peter, got my William Doyle (and a couple other) books back this morning. Doyle also uses the term Republic, and has a section called "The Republic Grows in Strength." (page 51) describing an interlude of peace and relative prosperity (mid 1780s). No question in my mind that they did not call it that in their time, and that from almost day one petitioned for admission to the United States under articles of confederation. Of course, the Roman Republic was not the official name of Rome in the republican period, but is how it is referred to, or Germany's period called the Weimar Republic, or Frances Second Republic, all describe a period not an official name of a nation. Weimar took its name from the small city where the constitution was written and ratified. Perhaps if Vermont's government had stayed put in Windsor it might have been called the Windsor Republic.


 * I agree that Res Publica is not a silver bullet of proof, where I have cited it I have mentioned that it could be rendered as commonwealth too. CApitol3 (talk) 19:53, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Your Meeting House Article
Dear GerardBull --

I have an interest in creating an article on Colonial Meeting Houses, a subject I have been researching now for several years. In searching Wikipedia I found your article on Meeting Houses -- well done! I have more information that I've gathered, and was wondering if you had a preference whether I add to your article, or create my own under "Colonial Meeting House" and we can link to each other's articles. I'm a brand new contributor, so it may take me a while to figure out how to do either of these two alternatives.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. 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.

White House stereograph views.
Hello, Jim.

Thanks for your response...wherever it is. I am new to the contributor areas of Wikipedia, and find it very confusing. I don't know how to find "the discussion page" to which you refer. There are two links in your post here, but neither of them take me to anything about White House stereographs.

Today, while visiting Wikipedia, I found a link to a message from you. In its entirety, it reads: "Hi Jim, I am responding to your question about White House stereograph views." This is, technically, a response, but isn't very helpful. I suspect that somewhere else you have posted a fuller response. I just don't know how to find it.

White House Stereographs
Hello, Jim-- Thanks for your response on my "talk" page giving details about your collection. I have a collection myself. I also make modern stereographs, and publish sets of stereoviews (both vintage and modern). Check out www.cockeyedcreations.com.

I am working on a set of vintage White House views. I have, or have found access to, several good ones, and am waiting to hear from my client about what they have in their archives. In the meantime I am looking around to see what is out there. We are looking in particular for shots that include people, events--something of a story, as opposed to just a shot of an empty room. Also, perhaps, early views that show differences between how it looked then and now.

If you have unusual views of this nature, would you be willing to scan them for inclusion in such a work?

Cheers, --Jim Cockeyed (talk) 00:03, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Regarding learning more about the Club of Odd Volumes
Greetings!

My name is John O'Brien. I came across your user account when viewing the discussion pages for the Club of Odd Volumes entry on Wikipedia.

As a member of the publishing Industry here in Boston, I would love to learn more about the Club of Odd Volumes. I have an interest in letter press and am something of a bibliophile, and would be keen to meet others with similar interests.

My email address is john.obrien@gmail.com. Would it be possible for me to ask you a few questions about the Club of Odd Volumes?

Regards,

John O'Brien

White House
Thank you for reverting my edits. I had noticed that the image's license was invalid after I had already placed it in the article, and nevertheless, I was tired and forced myself to go to bed. I didn't have time this morning to revert.... I just wanted to let you know I was aware that they were the magazine's credits and not that of the federal government. Thanks again.

Victorian Gothic
Hi. I landed on Victorian Gothic recently from All Saints, Margaret Street, and was wondering how you might envision the article progressing? The Gothic Revival is quite established now and Victorian Gothic has just under 100 links whereas Gothic Revival has over 500. Do you think that a merge with Gothic Revival might be appropriate (I notice it was originally a redirect, but you added content - hence my post)? I'm a little confused about the content of the article, which you might be able to help me with. On the one hand we are told Victorian Gothic is an anglocentric term for Gothic Revival - I'm not sure about that, in the UK, Gothic Revival is used in most academic texts - although modern parlance probably does reference Victorian Gothic admittedly. Also, the first sentence tells us the movement was from the middle to the end of the 19th century, but the next sentence tells us the term is anglocentric because the style was used both before and after her reign - that seems like a non-sequitur - how does the inaccuracy of the term's dating make the term anglocentric? Do you mean there are examples of Gothic Revival architecture found before and after her reign (certainly true viz Strawberry Hill, Pugin, Liverpool Cathedral etc.) or do you mean there are examples in other countries found before and after her reign? Cheers. --Joopercoopers (talk) 11:40, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

White House stereographs
Hi. There are a number of these, and they all say "stereograph" in the caption. But when you click on the image, you get taken to a single image and the link "stereograph" just goes to an article about stereographs. Unless people can get an actual stereo version of the image, then the stereograph reference should be removed from all the captions as it's confusing. Are there any stereo pairs uploaded somewhere? It would be neat to have a look at them. 219.89.98.127 (talk) 09:43, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Replying to the message you sent me: I get what you mean and I'm saying it seems pointless to mention it unless it has some value in the context it's in. I can't see any point in mentioning that the image is from a stereograph unless you are actually going to let them have access to one. Details of the White House may have some historical value, but any details of every image showing the White House seems too trivial. And in this case it is probably only of value to photographers, not people who are interested in the White House. Don't get me wrong, the images should stay, I'm just saying that any reference to them being a stereograph should be removed 219.89.98.127 (talk) 11:14, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, and what I'm saying is that the term doesn't add value. It's not relevant in this case as I don't think the information that it's a stereograph is something most people are interested in, just like most of images on this site with EXIF data don't mention any of that data in the caption, unless it happens to be some kind of photography related article. It would be a different case if the image did link to a stereograph, because then the link to the stereograph article would let people know what it was they were looking at if they didn't know what a stereograph was. But without an actual stereograph, in an article that isn't about stereographs, I don't see how it's relevant enough, not according to the guidelines. 219.89.98.127 (talk) 09:24, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:SMlogo.png)
Thanks for uploading File:SMlogo.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 '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. BJBot (talk) 05:10, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Moreover, please notice that the merger discussion is closed. There was insufficient support for the change, so the pages were not merged.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Cloudbound (talk) 01:35, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Vislangbib.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Vislangbib.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:26, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Better source request for File:StateWelcomeCeremony.jpg
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.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:14, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Library and Learning Center, Johnson State College (Johnson, Vermont).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Library and Learning Center, Johnson State College (Johnson, Vermont).jpg. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of New England Grassroots Environment Fund


A tag has been placed on New England Grassroots Environment Fund requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://grassrootsfund.org/dollars/seed-grants. 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 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 "Click here to 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.

Orphaned non-free image File:UVMsigillum.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:UVMsigillum.jpg. 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:49, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Council of Presidents (disambiguation)


A tag has been placed on Council of Presidents (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either

Image source problem with File:Game table by Charles Honoré Lannuier.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Game table by Charles Honoré Lannuier.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. 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, as described in section F4 of the 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 16:25, 18 September 2023 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.
