License tagging for Image:Cone2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Cone2.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.

Unspecified source for Image:Mex17.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mex17.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 19:28, 19 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Th e Su nshi ne M an  19:28, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Gooden86.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Gooden86.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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. P.B. Pilhet 19:46, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Warning
Please stop uploading images without providing a legitimate license tag for them; Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and if you continue in this manner, you may be blocked (see this relevant case).

How about this I will leave the Padres on Dave Winfield and you will leave the Yankees on Reggie Jackson, and please sign your name when you write me a message--Yankees10 16:47, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

And also with Jeff Nelson, he was one of the Yankees most reliable relief pitcher in the 90's and even signed a deal with the Yankees before the 2007 season to retire AS A YANKEE--Yankees10 17:01, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

The thing is if you ask a person what team they remember Reggie Jackson with, they would most likely say Yankeees, and also it really doesnt look good with a Yankee uniform and Oakland colors--Yankees10 17:16, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

That might be true in New York, but not in the rest of the country, particularly on the West Coast where he is revered as an Oakland A. Besides, it is the same dynamic on Rickey Henderson's page - Oakland colors and Yankee photo, and few remember Rickey as a Yankee in the grand scheme --Pascack

I live in the West Coast and out here he is most known as a Yankee, and really you really dont know enough about wikipedia to be making decisions on what color should be on there infobox, I could tell this because you dont know how to sign your name right when leaving a message.--Yankees10 17:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

I live in Sacramento - everyone knows Reggie as an Oakland A. He was on the Yanks for what - 5 years? He played a twice as long in Oakland and won more championships with them.192.234.99.1 18:48, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Stoneman

What is your problem, we already resolved the Jeff Nelson issue, its going to be Yankees, and using your IP address doesnt fool me, I know it was you--Yankees10 19:34, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

And it is obvious you dont like the Yankees considering you vandalized the colors on Don Mattingleys infobox, keep it up and you will be BANNED for good--Yankees10 19:35, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Reggie Jackson, you will be blocked from editing. Stop changing Team Colors in the info box, it is considered vandalism. Momusufan 19:50, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

your comment
Why not try gaining consensus before making changes to anything? Use the articles talk page to get input from other users rather than just changing it. Momusufan 21:27, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: Team colors
Hi Pascack. I think the easiest way to figure out which colors to use in the infobox is to place a post on the article's talk page and wait for several users to place their opinions, and then go with whichever answer is the most agreed upon (I like the color arrangement the way it is now, personally). If I ran into a conflict such as this, I would probably just forget the whole thing and let the colors go as they go; you choose your battles, you know? I don't like to argue about something as small as infobox colors.

As for the profanity, it is absolutely against policy to use any form of unnecessary incivility against other editors on Wikipedia. The only time profanity is allowed is when it is necessary to improve an article. I know what you mean about children editing, and it bothers me too, but at the moment the standing policy is that Wikipedia is not censored, unfortunately. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. I love to help! -- P.B. Pilhet  22:13, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * The post seems good to me. I've posted my opinion under it. --  P.B. Pilhet  22:33, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Please do not change the colors in the infobox, until we resolve this as you did with Reggie Jackson--Yankees10 23:21, 24 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

Yeah I wont touch it, but if we decide for it to be Yankees, I am going to change it again--Yankees10 00:46, 25 June 2007 (UTC)Yankees10

Nolan Ryan
Why did you revert my edit to Nolan Ryan? –– Ksy92003  (talk)  17:32, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, they should have the California Angels' colors... which is what I did. The colors that were up before I changed them reflect the current Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim colors, the bright red and grey.  However, when Nolan Ryan played with the California Angels, they were dark red and dark blue.  –– Ksy92003   (talk)  17:41, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see. I think I should point out, however, that the Texas Rangers' colors were blue and red, in that order.  Blue was their primary color.  The Angels' colors are inversed; red is primary and blue is secondary.  That's the key difference between their logo's coloring.  I didn't think of that when I made the change.  The reason I changed them in the first place is because mainly the red was too bright and reflected the team's current shade of red as opposed to California's shade, which was a much darker red.  The blue is their secondary color from their hats, helmets, and trims, which is why I used that as opposed to gray.  Go to http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=California+Angels&gbv=2 to see some examples of how the red, blue, and white are used and in what majority on their uniforms.  –– Ksy92003   (talk)  17:48, 10 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay. I'm not sure if those are the colors we should use for the Angels' players (I also changed Wally Joyner to those colors, as well), but I was gonna try to change the Angels' infoboxes to those colors if there are no objections.  Should I take this up at the Project page?  –– Ksy92003   (talk)  17:51, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
