File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Vlsci pan e small-2.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Vlsci pan e small-2.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is [ a list of your uploads]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 02:18, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Logo vlsci.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Logo vlsci.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions. If you have a question, place a template, along with your question, beneath this message.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 17:39, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Usernames and blocks
Okay, here's the thing.

Your username is "Vlsci", which stands for "Victorian Life Science Computation Initiative". We discourage usernames which indicate an organization rather than an individual member of an organization, because that can be taken to mean that the account is being used by the organization as a whole, with different people sharing the password. I appreciate your desire to be open regarding any potential conflict of interest, but you're going about it the wrong way; a note on your userpage stating that "I am an employee of the Public Relations Department of the VLSCI", or whatever, will do just fine.

Based on your assertion that you are a single individual, I'll unblock you; however, I strongly recommend that you file a request at Changing usernames.

As for the page about the VLSCI, well, I thought it was pretty much ready for mainspace (once I trimmed out about half the content, most of which was stuff about how wonderful the VLSCI is). If you're sure you want it back in userspace, I'll fix that for you also - but please do confirm that request here. DS (talk) 13:37, 26 August 2011 (UTC)


 * As per your e-mail, you want it back in your user space so you "can muck around with the images for a while". The thing is, if the page is in your (or anyone's) user space, then it's not permissible to use non-free images. Non-free images are only permissible for use in articles; it's a legal thing. We have bots that go around and remove non-free images from user pages, and if non-free images aren't being used in any articles, they get marked for eventual deletion. You're free to tinker with the images while the article is in mainspace. DS (talk) 12:24, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
