Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Arbeiter.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Arbeiter.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" 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 for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

i'm not sure if i got speedy deletion for this one--the cd cover was taken by my daughter -then 10 years old--i did the artwork from the picture myself for the cover--no one else was involved with any aspect of the album except Rolf Harris who i purchased a mechanical royalty license to record the song--i'm not sure where the copyright infringement issue is here--please helpLevavaran (talk) 23:01, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi there...in short licensing for images on Wikipedia is tricky. For ALL images you need to confirm that it can be used - this is done either by stating:
 * not copyright - normally old pictures (greater than 100 years),where the creator of the work has died, or the creator has renounced all claim to the image.
 * copyrighted, but licensed - There is a copyright holder, but they have given permission to use the image on Wikipedia, either specifically, or using one of the Creative Commons licences
 * fair-use - this is where you use copyright info without the copyright holder's permission - there are various restrictions on how and where you can use the image, based on US law.


 * Image:Arbeiter.jpg is currently set as "fair-use", which means you need to explain why it should be allowed under each page. From what you've said, if you are the copyright owner of the image, you need to change the description of it on the Image page.  More information available at WP:Image Use Policy.

thank you Paul for that very fine and quick explanation--but now i'm more confused than ever--i can't post the image on the article--cause the article had been speedily deleted--it's gone--as you see -my last edit was to remove the pic--because with its inclusion-it eclipsed the All Music Guide's review of the cd-which was of most importance to the stub.-please help!
 * Ok, as it says in the message below, the article was created incorrectly, so was lost as part of a tidy up. To recreate the article, click here and create the article in the text box.  I'll keep an eye on it and try and help, make sure you're familiar with the various Wikipedia policies first.  It sounds like you may need to check conflict of interest guidelines, if you are closely connected to Steve Lieberman himself. Paulbrock (talk) 00:25, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

"Arbeiter At The Gate" by Steve Lieberman
Hi there. It seems that you've been working on an article about an album, called Arbeiter At The Gate, by Steve Lieberman. However, you've written in a template which is used on many other articles. I've reverted your changes, but why don't you familiar yourself with the Wikipedia Tutorial and other guides? They're linked at the top of this page, in the box labeled Welcome to Wikipedia. If you have any questions, feel free to write on my talk page. Mr. Absurd (talk) 22:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, the article had to be removed since it contained text just copied-and-pasted from this website. Wikipedia can't accept contributions that violate copyrights. If this musician is noteworthy enough for an encyclopedia article, please re-create the page in your own words. Cheers --Rlandmann (talk) 00:54, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Arbeiter.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Arbeiter.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) 12:30, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
