Lyrics pages
Hi Shimon, welcome to Wikipedia!

I wanted to let you know that I've listed your lyrics pages for review at the Copyright problems page because they may be an infringement of copyright.

The WikiProject_Songs page has this to say about lyrics:


 * Please do not include the song's entire lyrics in the article unless you are certain they are in the public domain. Most lyrics will be copyrighted so we cannot legally put them in an article. It may be acceptable to use small portions of a song's lyrics in the main body to illustrate a point.

I'm not a copyright expert and it may be that these lyrics are in the public domain, but most lyrics aren't. The experts on this subject will check into it.

In the meantime, thanks for your other Wikipedia contributions.

This was not vandalism. I found this using google: http://www.xnumber.com/xnumber/pic_reckoner.htm

I'll add something mentioning it. Cheers Cdyson37 22:22, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Aca.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Aca.gif. 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. CLW 20:27, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Aca.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Aca.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. CLW 20:27, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
