You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Induction cooker
A long time ago you added this history of the Westinghouse induction cooker. It would be wonderful to get a citation for this history, which I found interesting and valuable. Is there any chance you can provide a citation for this history? Thanks, --Wtshymanski (talk) 19:07, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Margaret Wright Jenkins.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Margaret Wright Jenkins.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:40, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Westinghouse CT-2 Induction Range photograph 1973.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Westinghouse CT-2 Induction Range photograph 1973.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis 16:54, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

I find this jargon confusing, and a deterrent.

Is that the aim?
