I am new to the Wikipedia community, so any suggestions or advice are greatly welcomed. Thank you!

Welcome!
Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Picture copyright
In answer to your question, you already have copyright on the images you took. For the purposes of Wikipedia, what you need to do is to specify the licence under which you will let Wikipedia use the images. I suggest the best licence to use is the GFDL licence ... if you chose to use this, then when you upload the page, put in the image summary. Otherwise you could put the image into the public domain but to do this you effectively lose your copyright, and you may not wish to do this The appropriate tag in this case would be. In sum, I recommend that you comment the image "Photo of XXX taken by and copyright Siyavash. ".

As you observe, there are many photos on the web, but yes, most are encumbered by copyright issues and so we have a strong preference for people such as you uploading your images, especially when you take the trouble to tag them.

There is a page Image copyright tags which may help. And somewhere there's a wikipedia picture tutorial. I'll see if I can find it later, but you might track it down from the welcome notes above. I'm away from my computer for about the next 6 hours, but I'll check back then and can give you more advice, and will look at what you've done with any images you have uploaded, to provide feedback.

Finally, if you are releasing your images under the GFDL, then consider putting them here rather than on the english wikipedia. You will need a login for the Commons ... files uploaded onto the commons can be used in all language versions of wikipedia. Hope this helps a little. But get on with uploading and we can discuss licensing tonight. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)


 * Thank you very much for your feedback, I am very glad to finally figure out the photograph policies, and they were simpler than I was making them out to be. I'm looking forward to contributing useful things to Wikipedia, thanks again! Siyavash 16:41, 25 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Hello. I've had a look at a couple of the photos you uploaded, and offer a few comments:


 * They're very good!
 * There's not much wrong with what you've done! But...
 * If you want to link back to your user page, you have to write your name as Siyavash . The first part is the name of the page to which you are trying to link; the second is the anchor - what you want the user to read. See the change I made here.
 * You can also put links into the text you use to describe the image. I did that with another of your images here and if I was not so lazy, would click on Godavari river or Kovvur and learn more.
 * On Bhakti Vaibhava Puri Maharaj you've used a very complicated and unnecessary markup. I have changed it to a simple wikipedia markup, which specifies that it is a thumbnail (means I can specify the size and can have a caption), right (picture is placed to the right), 250px (width in pixels) and a caption. See the [Image:BV Puri Maharaj 082401.jpg difference].
 * Hope this helps. Keep adding & editing & taking photos - very much appreciated. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Hey Tagishsimon,

I've just looked at the changes, and everything looks great -- very professional! Thank you very much for taking the time to edit the articles I put. Through your intervention, I learned a lot of things about Wikipedia, and I don't feel like such a newb anymore. Thanks again! :) Sincerely Yours, Siyavash (talk)


 * And now I've made minor amendments to all of the pages you created. Check out the differences by looking at the History link associated with each page, and comparing the versions. But the main things I changed were:


 * Articles should never start with ==Titles==
 * Use name of article to embolden the subject of the article in the text you write, not name of article
 * Only embolden one instance of the name of article in the text.
 * Umm. And I promise to stop following you around now. They are very good articles, by the way, very high quality. :) --Tagishsimon (talk)

Thanks again :) I hope I can write some new articles, but I am out of ideas. I'll try and idle on the #wikipedia IRC channel! Siyavash (talk)

Survey of Hindu organisations
hi Siyavash, namaste. I observed your entry on Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mission at Survey of Hindu organisations. Could you please add more details on the movement and make it exhaustive ? You may refer to the other articles that i have placed and the template used. Good to see an entry on Gaudiya Vaishnavism organisation. So far only ISKCON was in the list. Ramashray 04:40, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

Namaste Ramashray,

I have added more information, I hope it is sufficient. :)

Hinduism
Namaste Siyavash,

the main Hinduism article has degenerated severely these past few months, and a rewrite is being done here. It was once a featured article, but many so-called contributions have made it unreadable. The multiple nature of Hinduism itself, with its innumerable schools and views, make people drop by and add something that, while noteworthy in their opinion, makes the article a huge clumsy elephant. We need a clean, precise, adequate article. The quality of your work is high, so if you can please contribute. The article on Buddhism ia a good example on what to strive for.

Aum shanti, Subramanian talk 20:10, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Namaste Subramanian,

Thank you so much for your kind words! I am currently on my way out for a few hours, but later tonight I will look at both Hinduism and Buddhism and hopefully I can contribute something nice :)

Gaura Premanande, Siyavash Siyavash 20:22, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

Biju Patnaik
Keep up the good work on Biju Patnaik. I would've done an extensive re-write on the article but really didn't have the time or knowledge of the individual to do any justice. --Dysepsion 17:11, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Hinduism in the United States
Can you start a Hinduism in the United States article? I find the Hinduism by country articles one of the most interesting. Especially on countries such as Afghanistan and Indo-china where Hinduism used to be prevelant. --Dangerous-Boy


 * Thanks for the request :) When I checked out the Hinduism by country article, I was surprised that nobody has done a Hinduism in the United States yet. I may give it a go, but I want to make sure it's a nice article if I do go through with it. :) Siyavash 21:23, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

Mansa succession
To the best of my knowledge, the succession after 1400 is literally unknown, not just unknown to me--the writings stop recording them there, as the Empire loses its power. That's fabulous that Mansa Musa made Civ IV! It's always struck me as bullshit that he's not more famous than he is--he's like world history's best kept secret. =)

Thanks for the help on the mansa articles! Best, --Dvyost 14:43, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

"The Zoroastrianism guy"
The title is in case you don't remember ;-), I'm just checking my talk page after a few months of avoiding it. Thanks for complimenting my page, I'm sometimes self-conscious about it. How is Civilization now? I used to be absolutely addicted to the 2nd version. I can only begin to imagine how much better it is now. Oh well, just returning your message. Khiradtalk 04:55, 25 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the message! It was a well made game, Civ IV plus the 1.09 is a pretty stable game, as well. I really don't care for the strategy genre though, so I haven't played this game much after the the release time. :/ Siyavash 14:04, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

THX 1138
The line about SEN's dialogue being taken from speeches by Richard Nixon was probably taken from the DVD. I own the DVD, and remember hearing George Lucas talk about it in the director's commentary during the scene when THX and SEN are in the white-room/prison.--Geedubber 08:03, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:Pb ives.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Pb ives.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

 * I believe I added the proper notation. If more information is needed, kindly inform me. If it is completely improper, then by all means remove it. Siyavash 19:33, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Prison Break "Scan" upload
Hey Siyavash

Well since I live in the United Kingdom, I have to wait slightly longer to view the episodes than the Americans. I wont probably be able to see that episode until Tuesday. If you wanted to upload a different image before then feel free, but I will do it Monday Night/Tuesday Morning if noone else gets round to it. GenestealerUK 16:12, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Accidentally posted on Userpage sorry about that. Think someones bot caught it though. GenestealerUK 16:23, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem :) Thanks for the post, I asked because I have my heart set on a certain image from the previews that I think will be perfect for the episode screen capture. Thanks! Siyavash 16:02, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Sucre -> Car -> Explosion perhaps? I saw this in the preview and wanted to put it up but I couldn't capture a clear enough image. GenestealerUK 18:02, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 * That's not what I had in mind, but that would work too, probably. VideoLAN has some nice screen capturing and slow motion features. Siyavash 20:01, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

I've done the page for First Down. I uploaded a preview image whih I think looks good, once again feel free to update the image. I think the tatoo from Scan was an important part of the episode, it may turn out that a photo of T-Bag isn't the most important part of First Down. GenestealerUK 16:19, 6 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the kind message!


 * At the same time, as much as I like contributing to the Prison Break articles, I don't want to hog it so much, so if you want to contribute this time, definetely go for it. I want to make sure everyone is happy with the screen captures, as well.


 * Still, if it is indeed up to me next week, and I upload a pic, I'll probably either do a T-Bag screenshot like you did, one of Bellick and Michael duking it out (assuming they do fight), or an action shot of John Abruzzi. Or perhaps something totally different since I've only seen roughly 1-2 minutes of the next episode. Whatever looks best ;) Feel free to critique if you or anyone else thinks that a better screenshot is in order. Siyavash 16:40, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Manhunt screencap
Hi. I just wanted to let you know I replaced the image "Image:Prison Break 201.jpg" on both the List of Prison Break episodes and Manhunt (Prison Break episode) with "Image:Pb_Fox_River_8.jpg" which you also uploaded. I think this image illustrated the content better than the image with T-Bag holding a screwdriver at a doctor's throat. I hope you don't mind. -- Ladida 00:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

ETA: Sorry, I just noticed it's actually from "Otis" so I reverted my edits. -- Ladida 00:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh wow, no problem, either way, hehehe! Siyavash 00:21, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm really sorry to hassle you again. This time I uploaded another image for "Manhunt" and renamed the T-Bag image. I love your screencaps but the "Manhunt" one just didn't seem fitting. Anyway, great work with the screencaps! -- Ladida 00:58, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I really like contributing to the PB articles and screencaps, but above all, I hope every contribution is for the best. If something is more appropriate, that's definetely best for the articles. Thanks for the kind messages :) Siyavash 01:03, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Prison Break episodes
Hey, Siyavash. Thanks for being civil about my reverts of your various edits. I hate having to remove people's work but no one ever really takes notice of the tags. By the way, nice recap! :) Ladida 05:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I'll try to cite things more carefully. Siyavash 13:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Malian Bios
Greetings my friend. my name is scott aka 4shizzal and have a question to ask about some of the bios you've edited regarding the mansa (emperors) of the Mali Empire. I've found a great new source of information which contradicts some important details in the lives of these men. i've gone ahead and made edits to the pages with the new information and have posted my reference under the "sources" bar. I don't want to start an editing war, and i'm appreciative of your interests in pre-colonial Africa. That is why i'm asking for permision to remove the external link for the Malin bios. I think dyvost put it up first, but he no longer participates in wiki (sadly). I think if you compare the websites, you will find the "Research on the empire of mali in the golden age" a much more vast and well reference article to source than the Mali bios. But regardles, i didn't want to step on any toes. Thank you for your time and please hit me back ASAP. Scott Free 17:35, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Greetings Scott,

I actually do not recall making any significant contributions to Mali Empire related articles, but I did have an interest in it sometime ago. I am in no place to object to any edits of yours, so I wish you good fortune and I hope your edits are a wealth of good information! Siyavash 19:40, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

kendo
Salam,

I havent practised Kendo for long. I used to be Kyokushin when I was in Iran. I made it to first kyu. Ive barely been practising Kendo over a year. I practice both Kendo and ZNKR Federation Iaido at River City Kendo. We're a branch of the Houston Budokan, which itself is a representative of the Chiba clan Honbu based in Osaka.

I dont know of anybody in Kendo in Iran. All Ive seen and heard is that "I ran to Iran and did Kendo" article. We might have a yon-dan or two there. But I would be very interested to meet those fellow Kendokas.

Im planing to do just that, when I visit Iran, hopefully, next summer.

take care :)--Zereshk 04:51, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Qui mala agit odit lucem
Somebody's added the "prod" template to the article Qui mala agit odit lucem, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but he or she doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Qui mala agit odit lucem. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Prison Break episodes
Hey Siyavash. I was wondering if you could write the "Critical reception and viewership" section for the next three or four Prison Break episodes because I'll be away from mid-January 'til mid-February. A sentence about the viewership with reference would be great. I hope you don't mind. It's just that the news articles get harder to find after the publish date has passed. Let me know if you could do it. I'll fill in the rest when I get back. :) Thanks, Ladida 03:22, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey Ladida! Yeah, I'll be happy to do it, plus my usual contributions to the Summary. No problem :) I've never really kept up with the critical responses, though. How do you find the articles? Do you usually go to the same websites? At any rate, a week before the return of Prison Break, I will review the Critical Reception sections of the last few episode articles, and will pretty much follow the tradition you started until you return. Have a nice trip! :) Siyavash 04:11, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you ver much, Siyavash! For viewership, I normally use Google News. Usually, it's the top few results on the following day of the episode airdate. I always use Zap2it.com and sometimes Medialifemagazine.com for viewer ratings and demographic share e.g. "5.8 rating/9 share" that follows the viewership. For the viewership (i.e. the number of viewers), I use a variety of sources. That's because no one source publishes it all the time. Again, I just look through the top results of Google News. The ones I've used are Medialifemagazine.com, The Hollywood Reporter, USA Today, Digitalspy.co.uk. For receptions from the critics, it'll be okay if you don't want to do them because they are easier to find than the viewership and ratings, and I can do them when I get back. But if you want to do them, I usually use Google News to find them but I also include some others that may not show up in the Google News result. I pick about five different critics, mostly from newspapers and rarely bloggers. Um... you can take a look at the References section of the last episode to see. I think there are three critics' reviews that I usually use; I often add some more. :) Thanks again, Siyavash. I hope you have a happy new year! -- Ladida 23:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)


 * It's my pleasure, Ladida, thanks for entrusting this to me, I'll give it my best, and I'll take all the great advice you gave me to mind once Episode 2.14 arrives. I hope you have a great vacation and very happy New Year :) Siyavash 02:50, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to hassle you again. I don't know if people know how to update the episode list in the episode infobox since I changed it. Actually, it's kind of better since no one has vandalised the infoboxes yet. :) Can you please update the list in Template:Infobox Prison Break season 2 episode list as Fox releases the titles? Thanks heaps, Siyavash. Regards, Ladida 23:48, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem, Ladida! I'll make sure that is finished as well. :) Siyavash 00:40, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for summarising all those viewership information and reviews, Siyavash. They were awesome. :) Ladida 05:19, 20 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I was happy to help :) I assume you'll be taking over from here? If you ever need this again, feel free to ask! Siyavash 06:07, 20 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I won't be able to write much until the semester break because I'm busy with assignments. So I'll probably do them during the break in a few months time. :) Ladida 13:29, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I was on Bloodfin. Both my chars were master pilots (one imp, one freelance), one was an architect / shipwright and the other was a teras kasi master / master combat medic. You? Syrthiss 18:52, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I was on Starsider. I had master pilots too (Alliance and Imperial). I had a Wookiee TKM/Rifleman until the revamp, then I went Jedi, then I cancelled two months later :) Siyavash 19:17, 7 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hahah, I didn't even last that long after the revamp. The entire town (and my guild) pretty much quit at the same time.  I think the person who did a lot of my pilot training was on Starsider.  Did you ever run into Nesanya? Syrthiss 19:27, 7 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Nesanya ... sounds familiar, but I can't be sure. Something tells me they became a shipwright, but again, I can't be sure. A lot of the pilot enthusiasts moved to Starsider after the revamp. :) Siyavash 19:59, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Prison Break 215.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Prison Break 215.png. 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.

Iranian cinema
Salam Siyavash jan!

I have seen you wrote Gaav, the classic Iranian film. I assume you are interested in cinema! Since December 2005 I am working on Iranian cinema. You see that the article came a long path. . I was improving it slowly. However the article is not in a good status yet. I want to bring the article to "feature status". As you are an English native speaker, you may be able to help me improving this article faster. It would be great if you could contribute to this article once in a while and invite others to come and help as well. Ba sepaas. Sangak 20:28, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Adina Porter
Just wanted to let you know I tagged your article on Adina Porter for and.

Kelly O'Neil Jackson
I have added a "" template to the article Kelly O'Neil Jackson, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Sadananda Swami
This has to be done within the next day or two to do any good. I apologize for not having the time to help  personally.
 * There are some problems with the article on  S S , which has now being put up for deletion. What is particularly needed are 3rd party sources for his activities, to shown that they are recognized as notable. Anything, print or web will help, but at least some of them must be from sources other than his own group's newsletter or magazine.
 * If you have written articles on similar people,  the same applies to them. They must have sources---there are many people engaged in the useful task of checking biographical articles and proposing deletion of those without sources. Since all WP articles must have such 3rd part sources, they are perfectly right to do so. I suggest you first take care of these before adding more--there is no point in doing the work if it is going to be deleted.


 * I am trying to defend it, but will not be able to without more material.
 * If you do not do this immediately, the article will probably be deleted in a day or two--though not by me.


 * A final point It is necessary to say something in the first sentence something to demonstrate notability, like
 * "A.B. is a notable (whatever), , winner of the Nobel prize  (or whatever applies).. Use the exact wording, including either the word "notable" or "internationally-known" or "nationally-known"; do not use "famous"  May sound silly, but that is what people look for here.

I apologize for not having the time to help more personally. -- DGG 20:38, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey Siyavash! Do you think a freeze frame at approx. 33 minutes 7 sec of "Panama" would make a better episode screenshot? It's of Lincoln staring out into the ocean. It shows the tropical setting.

Fair use rationale for Image:Gaav.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gaav.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.

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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 10:48, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Please also consider using or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. Thank you. ~  Wi ki  her mit  01:54, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Notability of Daniel Allar
A tag has been placed on Daniel Allar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Reverend X (talk) 17:43, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

A more inclusive wiki for bios
Hi Siyavash, looking at your user page and some of the articles you've worked on, you seem like a very interesting person. Irish-Iranian-Japanese? You're obviously an experienced Wikipedian -- more experienced than me -- but I wanted to point out a resource that might be useful to you. I've recently set up a wiki for bios Wikipopuli that doesn't have a notability requirement. Since a couple of your articles have come under review for WP:BIO, I'd like to suggest that you consider it as an alternative home for them, or indeed for any bio article.

Notability of Clyde May
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Clyde May, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Clyde May seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Clyde May, 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 contact the bot operator 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.

Proposed deletion of Nika Volek
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Nika Volek, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Image licensing
Hey there...

I am trying to clean up some of the images with minor licensing issues and I came across Image:M-Liberty.jpg which is only used on one of your subpages User:Siyavash/My Images which I see you have not edited in a while. I wonder if you still need the subpage and/or the image. If you do not need the sub-page, just add db-author to the top and an admin will come and delete it. If you do not need the image, follow the instructions at WP:IfD or drop me a note and I will nominate it for you.

At a minimum, if you are going to use the image, could you go and fix the licensing on the image page and be clear about releasing the image under a GFDL license. Thanks. If you have any questions, please drop me a note on my talk page. --Jordan 1972 (talk) 22:18, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Budokan segagenesis.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Budokan segagenesis.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:Pb ives.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Pb ives.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.

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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:
