License tagging for Image:Moral9.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Moral9.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 21:10, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Moral9.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Moral9.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.  howcheng  {chat} 19:48, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Auxsup1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Auxsup1.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:51, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use &#123;&#123;subst:uw-test1&#125;&#125; instead of &#123;{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 16:08, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:P4140225.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:P4140225.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:18, 30 January 2008 (UTC).

Are you on flickr? Don&#39;t You Read (talk) 01:14, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I look at photos on Flickr, but don't have an account. MOOOOOPS (talk), 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Well perhaps you should get one and learn to use flickr a bit better since you apparently missed the bit where it said on someone's profile page about Wikipedia usage of photos:


 * The image is copyrighted and the flickr user profile states: Under no circumstances will any image be licensed to Wikipedia, any part of the Wikimedia Foundation, any of its subsidiaries or related endeavours. Do not ask permission or you will be blocked!


 * If any images are found on any publication, website, or other form of media electronic or non-electronic belonging to Wikipedia, any part of the Wikimedia Foundation, any of its subsidiaries or related endeavours after placement by anyone in any way shape or form associated with Wikipedia, any part of the Wikimedia Foundation, any of its subsidiaries or related endeavours (including users) this constitutes agreement to a flat rate non-exclusive licensing agreement based on time of usage. The flat rate is $1 million per image per hour (or any part thereof) of use based on time of upload to any computer or other data storage device associated with or owned in whole or in part by Wikipedia, any part of the Wikimedia Foundation, any of its subsidiaries or related endeavours.


 * The two photos you linked to have been made private, ruining things for everyone else. Don&#39;t You Read (talk) 11:10, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * First off, the photo page never said anything that you just said, and putting it on your profile means nothing since many people, including myself, never looked at it there. Second, there is absolutely no need for saying "Are you proud of yourself?". Its rude, and completely unnecessary, and I am deleting it off my talk page. If you want to have an adult conversation, fine. But don't come here and start saying stupid stuff that a kid would say. Got a problem with that? Don't come back to my talk page.

New York State Police
Are you somehow under the impression that "Employees" does not include the sworn personnel? It is misleading to state that there are only 1000 employees of the NYSP when you clearly know there are 5600. Half the time I find the boxes to be more in the way than valuable. Please change the number back, as a revert war does nobody any good. As it appears we are interested in many of the same subjects, we are bound to cross paths in the future. Have a great day! SGT141 (talk) 12:19, 18 August 2008 (UTC)


 * The number of troopers are listed in the "Operational Structure" section of the info box. Thats why the employees section is just the number for non sworn.

My edit summary may not have fully explained the rationale for removing the two images that you added to the section 19th Century in the article Crime in New York City. Since these images are of 20th-century police vehicles, they really don't belong in a section that deals with crime in 19th-century New York. If you had images of New York City police vehicles from the 1800s, they would certainly be a good addition to this section. Best, - Docether (talk) 16:31, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

question here...
Question here, your picture of that NYPD auxillary force cruiser... What are those "crossbar" thingies on its grille? Do they serve a purpose, if so then what? - Please reply to my e-mail. - shadow.warrior45@gmail.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.227.222.100 (talk) 10:53, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the edits. Bearian (talk) 20:08, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Please do not delete
I placed a picture of a potential candidate on one the pages because his name showed up, I think it only fair that if there are other pictures on the page you allow that picture as well for Tyrrell Eiland. He is a bonafide candidate and should be treated with the same respect. Thanks

Orphaned non-free media (Image:SFPD Reserve Patch.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:SFPD Reserve Patch.gif. 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) 05:20, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
