Replaceable fair use File:Photograph of Governor Lincoln D. Chafee.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Photograph of Governor Lincoln D. Chafee.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)(Talk) 19:38, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Changes to Lincoln Chafee images
Hi.

I noticed you reverted my changes to two Wiki pages (Lincoln Chafee and List of current United States governors.) I would like to inform you, in case you didn't know, that it is Wikipedia policy that when a politicians most recent, proper licensed, official photo is available, that is the image that must be used. You previously uploaded File:Photograph of Governor Lincoln D. Chafee.jpg, which, even though is a more recent official photo, it is not properly licensed. It is also Wikipedia policy that if there is an ongoing license dispute for an image, it may not be used in any Wiki article. This is the exact situation we are currently in. I ask that you do not change the recent image edits to the two Wiki pages I pointed out earlier. If you do, that will break the 3 RV rule and I will have no choice but to report your account. Thank you for understanding. - DONALDderosa (talk) 23:05, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
