If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 02:01, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, the recent edit you made to Cardinal (bird) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Speedy deletion of Okenite
A tag has been placed on Okenite requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —  Wen li  (reply here) 03:11, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Images
The images contain stitching that is characteristic of Google Street View. If I am wrong, I am sorry. Would you please give the latitude/longitude of where some of those photos were taken? They still show characteristic signs of being taken from street view to me. &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 13:57, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I meant the latitude/longitude, not the links to the images. I do not tag all images that are photographs, especially since I take such photographs myself. The issue is that all of those images show characteristics similar to Google Street View photographs, but it is entirely possible I am wrong (and I am doubting it now, but it seemed obvious at the time). &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:07, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Please desist with your personal attacks. I'm willing to discuss this, but not whilst you make such attacks. &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:16, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * After some research, it would appear that I was completely and utterly wrong, and I am nothing if not apologetic for my mistake. Please accept my sincere apologies, and my assurances that my actions are not representative of Wikipedia - I made a mistake which is unlikely to be repeated. Thanks. &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:26, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Almost all of them will not be deleted now, a few of them still have issues which weren't flagged by me. Did you meant to tag all of the images you uploaded under the same license? If the answer is yes, I can fix the problem. Again, sorry for the mix up. &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:31, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * You licensed most under cc-by-sa-3.0. Is that alright to add to the ones missing it? &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:35, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * It's no problem, and I'll get right on it. Thanks for staying calm, especially since I was being such an utter imbecile. :) &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:38, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, that's all of them sorted. Thanks again for not being too angry, and hopefully there are no hard feelings. &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:40, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll keep a look out, and if there are any issues I'll drop you a message. :) &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 14:43, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

 * In particular, an actual identification of the fossil may protect the image from future deletion proposals, as there are many high quality fossil images already available on Wikipedia which are clearly identified. Best wishes, --Haruth (talk) 11:41, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:ButlerCountyChrisLitherland.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:ButlerCountyChrisLitherland.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * I've deleted the image because I didn't see solid evidence that you're the same person as the Flickr uploader with this username. If you've published evidence that you're the same person as the Flickr user, please point me there, and I can easily undelete it.  If you've not published evidence in the past but you'd now like to do so, it's easy — on your Flickr user profile, say "I am the same person as Photolitherland on Wikipedia", or expand your Flickr profile with a link to this talk page and call it something like "My page on Wikipedia", or do anything else on Flickr that clearly connects the two accounts.  Feel free to leave any questions at my talk page if you're like help; I'll do my best.  Nyttend (talk) 04:26, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Garden Theater, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Beaux Arts (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Akro Agate Company


A tag has been placed on Akro Agate Company requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.glassencyclopedia.com/AkroAgateglass.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
