Bulacan's provincial seal
Could you re-upload the image as "Ph_seal_bulacan.gif"? The current name "Provincial_seal2.gif" is not  very descriptive. It would also be nice if the names match the other provincial seals for easy searching:

Image:Intramuros.jpg
G'day Robby,

I'm glad to see that you've been doing some excellent work at both expanding a number of wikipedia's articles, as well as added some great images. However I've recently looked at some of the images you've been using, and thought it best for me to alert you to a couple of issues.

The image of Intramuros is currently tagged with a tag. This is a special tag for verified fair use cases that have gone through a review process. In particular, the image requires the image description page to be completed, and a fair use rationale must be provided.

The should only be used after a process of review to ensure that there's no alternates to using that particular image. Fair use laws are different from country to country, and some don't have them at all. As such, wikipedia tries to avoid using fair use images where alternative licenses or images exist.

In the case of the picture in question, it would be reasonable to expect that other photographs of Intramuros may exist, some which may have a more compatible license with Wikipedia. As such, the use of the tag would be more applicable than.

Don't forget that all images need attribution on their description page. If you've taken an image yourself, then don't be afraid to say so, as well as the license with which you grant wikipedia the right to use that image -- often the is a good choice here. If the image was obtained from somewhere else, then list your source, including the photographer if possible. Without this information it's impossible to verify the license associated with an individual image, and the tag would be the only applicable image tag to use.

Thanks once for all your contributions and edits to wikipedia, and keep up the great work.

All the very best,

Image Tagging Image:Meycauayan church altar.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Meycauayan church altar.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stan 14:35, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Intramuros.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Intramuros.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link].

File:Cross of Bocaue.jpg needs authorship information
Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Cross of Bocaue.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).


 * If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: will produce an appropriate expansion, or use the own template.


 * If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

If you have any questions please see Help:File page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:05, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Old cathedral.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Old cathedral.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

Disambiguation link notification for May 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Art Deco theaters of Manila, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gaiety Theater (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.
