Image copyright problem with Image:Matchless hc-30.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Matchless hc-30.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. BRossow 03:21, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Spoiler warning on Differences between book and film versions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Hi Lappado, you said on Talk:Differences between book and film versions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that you think there should be a spoiler warning in the article. There already is one there, warning readers to continue cautiously if they have not read the first five books and/or seen the first four movies. I adjusted the "four movies" to "five" since you expressed the notion that mentioning the centaurs appear is a spoiler (I don't personally think the cast should be a spoiler, but I see your point). Just wanted to let you know that it was there already. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 16:34, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Kevin_Moore_(Chroma_Key).jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Kevin_Moore_(Chroma_Key).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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 17:03, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Uncle's Institution


A tag has been placed on Uncle's Institution requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. StraussInTheHouse (talk) 15:29, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Jerry Jones Guitars


The article Jerry Jones Guitars has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP:GNG. Long-term unsourced article on a non-notable company. I can find no significant coverage, just trivial mentions in lists of gear people used at one time or another."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
