Is there a place where i can get someone to...'review' my article before I submit it? The article that is on Wikipedia lacks a great deal of info and has also been subject to frequent vandalism.


 * Hi there,


 * Yes, there is. It's called Peer Review, request here.


 * I hope this helps!

I want to add someone's marital status in their wiki's info box...what is the exact code for this?


 * Infobox Person uses a |spouse= parameter, however without knowing what article you're referring to, I'm afraid I can't help too much. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 17:57, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Sorry, that template doesn't have the code to handle that. You may want to ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Musicians to see if there's a reason why, or if someone could add it in for you. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 18:16, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

hey guys :>

im about to start an article on zachary filkins. he's the guitarist in OneRepublic but he was a model before he was in the band...should i put 2 infoboxes? is there some sort of cross between the 2? or should i just pick one?

thanks~ :D


 * Nope, you don't want to use two infoboxes - pick the one that's most relevant. So basically, I suppose it's the one you can fill in more information about. Hope this helps, Alex Muller  08:53, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:Ryancanalroomny.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ryancanalroomny.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We requires this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:08, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:L a8675b63a04b55b1ab90fb145a3bfc21.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:L a8675b63a04b55b1ab90fb145a3bfc21.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Mosmof (talk) 13:55, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright
Hey, thanks for leaving a message. Couple of things - first, with the Ryan Tedder photo, if you say you took the photo and it doesn't look like you copied it from some website, it's usually fine. I've removed the "no source" information tag. Fair use is a little more complicated - basically, you're saying "This technically violates someone's copyright, but it's necessary for this article and if you replaced it with another picture or with a text description, it wouldn't work." How much fair use is allowed is open to interpretation, but on Wikipedia, the basic policy is that if a person is living and appears in public, then it wouldn't be hard for a Wikipedia member to snap a picture. Generally, there has to be some significance to the image itself - for example, it's hard to talk about the painting Mona Lisa without the picture, but you can talk about Leonardo Da Vinci without a picture of Mona Lisa. Does that make sense? If I'm still not making sense (it really is a complicated subject and plenty of experts disagree on it), please check out FU, which might do a better job than I can. --Mosmof (talk) 15:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Zachglasshousepamona.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Zachglasshousepamona.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 14:05, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:ZACKFILKINS5B.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:ZACKFILKINS5B.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? PhilKnight (talk) 13:39, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:ZACKFILKINS5B.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:ZACKFILKINS5B.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:50, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
