Replaceable fair use Image:Paul_Stamets_by_oxyporus.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Paul_Stamets_by_oxyporus.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  howcheng  {chat} 16:41, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Regarding your note at Image:Paul_Stamets_by_oxyporus.jpg, one of the easiest things to do is simply ask him for freely licensed photo. Instructions at WP:COPYREQ if you need them.  howcheng  {chat} 18:55, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I did just that. No response. See the image discussion page for more details. I've been around Wikipedia for quite a while. I know the ropes. There's not, as far as I can tell, going to be a freely licensed replacement. We can argue that perhaps one day someone might get such an image, but there isn't one today, and we don't know how we'd go about getting one, so I don't see the point of suggesting that the image is "replaceable"... replaceable with what, exactly? -Harmil (talk) 18:58, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Two-and-a-half years ago, he probably knew nothing about Wikipedia and so didn't bother to respond. Now, I got a photo out of him. I'm negotiating licensing right now, but I expect to have the photo up in the article soon. Regards,  howcheng  {chat} 17:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Governor David A Paterson.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Governor David A Paterson.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:28, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Gaylactic logo.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gaylactic logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any 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. Ricky81682 (talk) 23:54, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:PZO1000 180.jpeg
Thank you for uploading Image:PZO1000 180.jpeg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:50, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
