Hello, I'm Zazpot. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Dye-sublimation printer have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. zazpot (talk) 15:31, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to T-shirt. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. zazpot (talk) 15:59, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion, Zazpot. I messaged you on your talk page: Could you help me write one for the article t-shirt, then, as that was my most recent edit! Meanwhile, I'm be moving through some nuclear spectroscopy (yay!). Thanks! Kacperniburski (talk) 16:28, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Sloth shirt
No problem, I assumed you'd just taken a photo of a shirt that you'd bought. Did you really mean to release the copyright of your artwork so that anyone can reuse it for any purpose without paying you, though? --McGeddon (talk) 16:29, 7 November 2016 (UTC)


 * In some way, through wikipedia, absolutely. The picture isn't the greatest, but I'd love to show an all-over print design that I'm proud of! Thanks for the clarification though. Kacperniburski (talk) 16:33, 7 November 2016 (UTC)


 * To clarify, an image uploaded to Commons isn't just for Wikipedia. By releasing this image under a CC licence you are allowing anybody in the world to use it freely for any purpose (even, say, cropping the image, printing it on a T-shirt and selling it without paying you any royalties), so long as they credit you by username somewhere. --McGeddon (talk) 16:58, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Ah, thanks for the clarification. How is it that famous images, which still have estates and royalties (such as the Mona Lisa or Catcher and the Rye's cover) can be housed then? Let me know. I'm still pretty interested in having it up, though. Kacperniburski (talk) 17:01, 7 November 2016 (UTC)


 * File:Mona Lisa, by Leonardo da Vinci, from C2RMF retouched.jpg is "in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or less", File:Rye catcher.jpg isn't uploaded to Wikimedia Commons as CC-BY-SA anyone-can-reuse this, it's hosted on Wikipedia with a much stricter fair use explanation. --McGeddon (talk) 17:06, 7 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see. Could I similarly use the fair use explanation through Wikimedia? Sorry for asking all these banal questions. Kacperniburski (talk) 17:16, 7 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Probably not. You'd have to be able to argue that your image of a dye-sublimated shirt couldn't be replaced by a free image that served the same purpose, and it's entirely possible for someone to decide to upload a free photo of a different shirt. --McGeddon (talk) 17:24, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

I see. Well, nonetheless. I'm more thank okay with the open policy then, with or without royalties. Trying to get into the opensourced scene (hopefully to never call it opensourced scene again), and think this is a good stab at it! Thanks for the help.

 * That being so, you might be interested to read this article: Definition of Free Cultural Works. Hope you find it useful! zazpot (talk) 17:44, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
