License tagging for Image:Ellis.gif
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Ellis.gif. 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. 21:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Greetings. This is a great image, but we can only use "free" images on Wikipedia. That means if Wikipedia is authorized to use it, but reusers of Wikipedia's material are not authorized to use it, then we can't. If you're willing to release the image under a free license (such as the GFDL or a Creative Commons license), then we can use it -- but so can anyone else, even for profit, without having to ask your permission. If you're not willing to release it under a free license, then we can't use. Thanks, – Quadell (talk) (random) 18:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Peterberresfordellis.gif
edit
Thank you for uploading File:Peterberresfordellis.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 18:07, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Arms5.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading File:Arms5.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.

Hello Davidwu10,
It seems to me that an article you worked on, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/The Society of Heraldic Arts, may be copied from http://www.heraldic-arts.com/society.htm. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.
It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.
Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 14:05, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of The Society of Heraldic Arts
edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on The Society of Heraldic Arts requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from www.heraldic-arts.com/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Flat Out let's discuss it 13:45, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:The Society of Heraldic Arts
edit
Hello Davidwu10. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "The Society of Heraldic Arts".
The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:The Society of Heraldic Arts}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 01:45, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
Peter Berresford Ellis - embedded references?
editI am the editor of the entry for Peter Berresford Ellis, being his duly-appointed representative for same, and international director of The International Sister Fidelma Society. Fortunately, erroneous "corrections" to this entry have evidently ceased (which were produced either by well-meaning fans, or ill-informed "experts" who knew not about what they were talking).
In any event, while I am not a Wikipedia expert, I do note that there are several instances in the References section that are red-marked for further citation details. I am prepared to enter same, but note that these are all in an embedded file that I did not create (presumably one of your people did this?). So, how do I access this? The changes/updates are as follows:
Note 6 Book & Magazine Collector, March, 1993 is "Peter Berresford Ellis: Novelist, Biographer and Historian" by Richard Dalby.
Note 8 Book & Magazine Collector, October, 2004 is "Celtic Sleuth: The Sister Fidelma Mysteries of Peter Tremayne" by Richard Dalby.
Note 11 Historia, Paris, is October 2010 is "Le vainqueur nous vient de l’Irlande brumeuse" (anon).
Note 13 Irish Post November 20, 2002 (Writer Honoured) and Irish World, November 22, 2002 (Literary Honour for Mystery Man).
I have no idea what the problem is on Note 14 on ‘check date values’. It seems where the publication is an annual one, they do not like the reference first date of entry and then ‘onwards’ to indicate the entries were changed each year until … Any ideas?
Thank you.
