[edit] WP:CVG
Hi Technitai, thanks for your comment on WP:CVG. Please stick around and contribute to the discussion. In the future, please place new sections at the bottom of the talk page and sign your comments by typing ~~~~ at the end of them. Regarding the biographies, of course we should be improving them :). We've compiled a list of core people that we should be improving first. We're limited in number however, so we can certainly use your help. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to contact me in my talk page. Cheers! Jacoplane 15:43, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Will Wright.jpg

|
Thanks for uploading Image:Will Wright.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 17:37, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
- What is really needed is the URL of the site you got the image from or that it was a scan of some PR material and expain what the PR material is -Nv8200p talk 18:53, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unspecified source for Image:SidMeier.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:SidMeier.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ptr ru 12:59, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:DSC 0714.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:DSC 0714.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Oden 10:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Timschafer.jpg
The copyright holder has to release the rights for the image for any use by anyone, including commercial and/or derivative use. Acceptable license include {{GFDL-no-disclaimers}}, {{cc-by-2.5}} and {{cc-by-sa-2.5}}. You have to e-mail the copyright holder and ask for permission and then e-mail the response to Wikipedia. There is more information, including examples of requests, at Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. --Oden 11:26, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
