License tagging for Image:Nicola walker.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Nicola walker.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.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 20:11, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Captain David Wood
Hi - I hope this finds you well! I noticed you added a nice article re Captain David Wood. I originated the "Sharkey Ward" article, so appreciate the work. As your new here, a few tips. Normally, we leave out titles in article names - so no Sir, Admiral, OBE or Captain etc; and no Ltd or plc. Hence, the article should nominally be titled "David Wood" - but as I am sure you have noticed, there is already a page at "David Wood" - its what we call a disambiguation page, ie there is more than one person/thing with the same name/tag. You could call the article "David A Wood" (with or without a . after the A). To achieve this, simply go to the article and click on the MOVE tag - then follow the instructions, typing in the new name: everything else forwards automatically. If you need any help, please just ask. Rgds, - Trident13 22:21, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Ggmem.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ggmem.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images 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.

Hi there Regweb. I've been looking through the Spooks edit history to find victims users that have some knowledge of Spooks. Spooks is currently under peer review], and I would like to get it to GA at least. With little effort I think the article is capable of reaching that level. Even if you have no knowledge of Spooks, some help with copy editing would be much appreciated. The two main sections to be done at the moment are the Critical Response section, which needs some references, and Spooks in popular culture. Any assistance you could provide with creating episode pages would be excellent, though I see it as secondary.Thanks RHB 20:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Nicola walker.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Nicola walker.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Copyright violation in Image:Peter firth.jpg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Peter firth.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Peter firth.jpg is unquestionably copyright infringement, and no assertion of permission has been made. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Peter firth.jpg, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 14:06, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Hugh_simon.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Hugh_simon.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. Rettetast 16:42, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Episode 501 143 0001.jpg)

Speedy deletion of Template:HorshamMPs
A tag has been placed on Template:HorshamMPs requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes.
