[edit] License tagging for Image:Backbend.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Backbend.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 08:05, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Black urine disease

At the time I deleted it, it consisted of the {{db-empty}} tag, having been blanked by yourself. The page creator blanking a new page is a common reason for speedy deletion, as it is assumed that the user made a mistake in creating it or changed their mind. Please assume good faith in future. -- Francs2000 04:40, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

PS sorry if I bit too hard, I'm not feeling too well just now! Feel free to recreate the redirect. -- Francs2000 04:50, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michigan State University for GA

Hi, I removed your nomination of Michigan State University for Good Article status because it is already a Featured Article, which is higher than GA. Let me know if you have any questions. --Aguerriero (talk) 16:33, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Stands.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Stands.jpg. 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 Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

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, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BigDT 15:39, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spartan Stadium

The assertion that the photograph you posted was one you created was wholly inappropriate. Furthermore, you are making two claims with the current tag: that it may be used as long as it is properly sourced (says who, and where?), and that it is a historic photo which is of such singular value as to be released from it general display (a categorization which is disputed). Which is it?

Also, the blanking of the memorable games section was accidental. I am using a new browser and I have done the same at Ohio Stadium - a result which I cannot explain. Please sing future comments with four tildes ~~~~. Thanks! Rkevins82 15:44, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Looking at the history I see no blanking of the memorable games. The image should be removed until the status of the image is resolved. Rkevins82 15:51, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for taking the time to clear that up (and scan the images). Like I said, the blanking was accidental and I still cannot remedy the problem with my current (work) browser. Apologies. The historical tag is probably fine as long as they resolve the fair use issues - I think they should soon. You'll probably have to wait more than a few years, though, to state the creator died 100+ years ago, as the image was taken in 1913. I look forward to adding to the Spartan Stadium article.

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Kci logo top.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Kci logo top.gif. 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.

[edit] Hello

What sports do you play?

[edit] Sticky mouse syndrome

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Sticky mouse syndrome, 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 {{dated prod}} 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.

[edit] Do not remove prod tags

That is tantamount to vandalism. Berserkerz Crit 11:54, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

• It is not tantamount to anything, either it is vandalism or it is not. According to the warning I can take the message down if I so object. I object, therefore I will take it down. Please direct discussion to the discussion page.
