The logos/images I've uploaded in the past for WFBN/WGBO Channel 66 have been removed from the WGBO article due to copyright issues, even as former station logos for many other TV stations are left intact.

While I don't want to cause problems with Wikipedia and copyright law, I'd like to know why it is that the images that I've uploaded are flagged as unacceptable, while the logos of other stations are (apparently) not considered an issue?

I truly think that the former logos of WFBN/WGBO before it was purchased by Univision would only enhance the historical relevance of the article, and I truly doubt that Univision (or the defunct former-owners of WFBN/WGBO) would have any sort of legal claim against posting those former logos. So how can I post those logos within the standards of Wikipedia's "Fair Use" guidelines? I thought I had provided "Fair Use" rationale in the past, but my additions were removed. What am I missing?

Hi WLXI!

We thank you for uploading Image:WGBO 1986.JPG, but there is a problem. Your image is currently missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Unless you can help by adding a copyright tag, it may be deleted by an Administrator. If you know this information, then we urge you to add a copyright tag to the image description page. We apologize for this, but all images must confirm to policy on Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks so much for your cooperation. This message is from a robot. --John Bot III (talk) 20:52, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

RE: Image copyright problem with Image:WGBO 1986.JPG
At this point, I've spent more time than I care to trying to justify my uploading former logos for WFBN/WGBO that get deleted, while logos for other stations are accepted with similar rationale to what I've given.

I've done my best to give "fair use" rationale for the logos I've uploaded to try and enhance/expand the Wikipedia entry for the past history of WFBN/WGBO, but if my additions aren't considered acceptable, then it's Wikipedia's loss more than mine.
