Image source problem with Image:Lawler-formal-b.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Lawler-formal-b.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|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 the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 23:43, 9 October 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of John Boudreau, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.hrstrategyforum.org/people/jboudreau.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 21:06, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Boudreau-formal-b.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Boudreau-formal-b.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
The Center for Effective Organizations and its staff
editHello. You appear to be creating articles about the Center for Effective Organizations and its employees. I urge you to review the following Wikipedia guidelines and policies as you seem to not be aware of them:
You should notice that you have several notices above that are related to these policies, as well as tags on most of the recent articles. I realize you are a new editor and are probably not doing this deliberately, and I hope you find this informative. That being said, they seem like reasonable articles to include in Wikipedia. Happy editing! Toddstreat1 00:00, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Another Copyright Warning - please take heed
edit Please do not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to John Boudreau. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
Look, I've been trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here, but it appears that the first time you created an article for John Boudreau, it was speedily deleted as a result of discovering copyright violations in the WP:AFD process on 10 October 2007. Then you re-created the article on 12 October with more copyright violations. You must not do this. If you continue, you will be blocked from further editing. I've removed the copyright violation that I found in your latest version of this article. Please go through your recent edits and delete any text that appears on other copywritten sites, pamphlets or any other sources. Toddstreat1 00:27, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
