Non-free rationale for File:Hummingbirds 13DaysAlbumCover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Hummingbirds 13DaysAlbumCover.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free 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 in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:55, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The above also applies to File:Hummngbirds FirstAlbumCover.jpg and File:Hummingbirds LonesomeAlbumCover.jpg. Moreover, while Wikipedia does allow non-free album covers to be upoaded for use in articles, this is pretty much considered only acceptable when the album cover art is being used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of a stand-alone album about the album in question. The use of non-free album covers in artists articles, particularly in a table markup of a discography section is pretty much never allowed. Please take a look at WP:NFC for more details. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:03, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:HummingbirdsHardRockTampaShowcase.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:HummingbirdsHardRockTampaShowcase.JPG. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:57, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately Wikipedia almost never excepts non-free images of still living individuals, even when they are part of a band or other group, per WP:NFCC. Since the band is still active an performing, it's reasonable to expect that someone somewhere will be able to create a free equivalent image which can be used to serve the same encyclopedic purpose as this non-free one. It might not be the exact same image, and it might not be created you or me, or even today or tommorrow, but Wikipedia cannot accepta this as long as someone can do it. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:08, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:04, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
