[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Kiss2004.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Kiss2004.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. Thank you. BRossow 19:17, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
- This image has been replaced with an identical one, Image:Kiss-2004.jpg, with appropriate copyright information. Ferdinand Cesarano 19:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Info on image, please
Please go to Image:Kiss-1976.jpg and edit that image description page to give the source (URL, if online; ISBN, if scanned from a book; and if you've taken the image yourself, just say so) and the licensing status (the list of image copyright tags might be useful) of this image. All our images should have this information; images without source or license info will be deleted after seven days. Thank you. Lupo 18:47, 29 March 2006 (UTC) (The same applies to all your other image uploads.)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Kiss-logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Kiss-logo.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that your image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If your image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why your image was deleted. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
If you have uploaded other fair use 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. --Durin 14:07, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ferdinand Cesarano's response to all image-related problems
I contributed several images to a Wikipedia page, all of which were deleted for violation of the copyright policy.
When I read the Wikipedia policies on images, I thought that I understood that it was allowed to use a picture that had been released by a celebrity for self-promotion purposes, so long as it was stated that the photo was a publicity shot.
Likewise, I believed that one could use a logo, so long as the person uploading it stated that the image was of the identifying mark of the subject of the article.
If further specific sourcing is necessary (as it would seem to be, given the content of the notices I received), then I confess that I am quite at a loss as to how I could go about obtaining this sourcing -- and, indeed, as to what sort of sourcing is even required.
So, then, when uploading a publicity shot, it is not enough to simply state that "Celebrity X released this publicity shot in the year XXXX"? Hmm. What else could possibly be required? The name and phone number of the photographer, perhaps?
Anyway, I tried. The world will just have to struggle by somehow, bereft of the images which I tried to share with it. I have given up on this issue.
(Just as I previously gave up on the issue of preserving my edifying and clearly-written contributions to the article itself from the deformation and destruction wrought by the semiliterate and the ignorant.)
