 * Thanks, IaOoM. I love Wikipedia and generally contribute whenever there is a fund raising effort. I have created Wikipedia accounts once or twice before -- thinking I was going to contribute -- but other things always seemed to take precedence. This time, however, I'm serious and I have have ample time. So hopefully I'll be producing a number of good articles over the coming months. Best... Rick Jones (talk) 14:20, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:The American Legion Mausoleum in Neuilly, France.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:The American Legion Mausoleum in Neuilly, France.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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. Whpq (talk) 20:43, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
