Releasing images
editHello, the topic of how to verify release of images for use on Wikipedia (which generally requires release for use by anyone who follows the Creative Commons guidelines, including for profit corporations Wikipedia:Copyrights#Contributors.27_rights_and_obligations) is detailed at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials Active Banana ( bananaphone 21:14, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
Disputed non-free use rationale for File:CWW Globe logo low res.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:CWW Globe logo low res.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. DanielRigal (talk) 22:07, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Nomination of Randy Geissler for deletion
editA discussion has begun about whether the article Randy Geissler, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Randy Geissler until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. DanielRigal (talk) 22:49, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
The article Aditya Berlia has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Minimally notable individual. Claimed to be notable for involvement with companies that do not have articles. Not seeing significant coverage in RS sources. The references are mostly primary sources or not-RS.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. DanielRigal (talk) 23:19, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:CWW Globe logo low res.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:CWW Globe logo low res.jpg. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 04:18, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
