NC 107
Hello, I'm the founder and leader of the North Carolina State Highways WikiProject. I noticed that you created the NC 107 and you did a great job with it (I noticed you copy/pasted from NC 58, but that's basically what we do). So, I'd like to ask you to join our WikiProject and create/edit NC route articles that you know. There are no quotas or anything, just edit whenever you feel like it. If you want to join, just add you name to the participants list at the project page. Also, right now there is a big debate on what state highway article titles should be called at State route naming conventions poll. You're welcome to look at that and participate if you'd like. I know you're somewhat new (if you're not a second account), but you apparently have what it takes and you have over 100 edits. --TinMan 21:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Richard Lui
It appears that the article on Richard Lui was lifted directly from the CNN website. It's my understanding that articles are not to be copied word for word from other websites. Dbart 22:53, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Waynesvillelogo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Waynesvillelogo.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 (talk) 03:21, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Unspecified source/license for Image:Poptartwarning.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Poptartwarning.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like PD-self (to release all rights), (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

File copyright problem with File:Speederslogo.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Speederslogo.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Closedmouth (talk) 16:02, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:DeadliestCatchTitleCard.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:DeadliestCatchTitleCard.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Hammersoft (talk) 16:33, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:K1047logo.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:K1047logo.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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:27, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
