[edit] University of Manchester images
Hi there. Thanks for uploading Image:Manchester Mark 1.jpg and Image:Manchester University Crest.jpg. Could I ask you to add a source link and a fair use rationale for each? It doesn't have to be very complicated, just something like the description pages of Image:Surrey University arms.png or Image:Gloucestershire University arms.png. I can help with fair use rationales, but I can't tell you where you got the images from! The licensing tag you applied to Manchester Mark 1.jpg comes preloaded with a speedy deletion notice, and it will vanish fairly swiftly if you don't add a source and rationale. I agree that both images are indeed Fair Use in their respective articles. — mholland 18:43, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
I apologise; Manchester Mark 1.jpg already has a source. Just a rationale for that one. Thank you. — mholland 18:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Mholland, thanks for the message. Regarding the Manchester coat of arms image, I received it from one of my teammates since we use the crest for our sports kits to represent the uni. The website [1] mentions that the crest is retained primarily for ceremonial and sporting occasions. However, given that almost all university teams wear the coat of arms on their sports kits, I find it useful to put it on Wikipedia. TheDanNr9 19:52, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry for the late response. I notice that Image:Manchester Mark 1.jpg has already been disappeared for improper licensing. You re-uploaded, but with an identical copyright tag. Please note that when you add {{Non-commercial from license selector}}, the image is automatically added to a list of images for deletion, which is policed fairly strictly by admins.
- I have replaced your summary with a description, source, copyright tag and fair use rationale. I have also removed the image from the article University of Manchester, because I don't think that fair use extends to its decorative use on that page. Feel free to amend the rationale on the image summary page if you disagree.
- My apologies if this seems a bit strange: Wikipedia takes copyright law very seriously. Thanks for contributing. — mholland 18:32, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
