Fair use rationale for Image:Qumargbdge.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Qumargbdge.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation 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.BetacommandBot 03:38, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Berwick upon Tweed

Actually there is a campaign, if you can call it that, about Berwick upon Tweed. Wendy Wood and others have campaigned on it for decades. --MacRusgail 16:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Falkirk Council Crest.gif

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Falkirk Council Crest.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 06:10, 2 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've updated the image now, and I've also put the table version I used to reconstruct it at User:Sjorford/Image:Parliament-54.png. I thought of putting the table itself in the article, but it's a bit long! — sjorford++ 09:05, 10 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Revert"

edit

Could you possibly give a more meaningful explanation than "revert" for this? And why on Earth would you think that a link to the Springhill disambiguation page is more useful on that template than a link to an article about a neighborhood of Glasgow? --Russ (talk) 00:50, 19 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

I would have thought it was pretty straightforward. The history shows that you changed the link in the template to point to Springhill, Port Glasgow. Clearly this Springhill is not in Glasgow, so I reverted it.Broxi (talk) 13:17, 19 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
