File permission problem with File:The Maine in Pontiac Michigan.jpeg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:The Maine in Pontiac Michigan.jpeg, which you've sourced to http://www.dirkmai.com/post/2158126566/the-maine-pontiac-michigan. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en wikimedia.org.

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:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Multichill (talk) 16:13, 7 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

This is awesome! I didn't know that there was a bot like this! I was worried about all the disambiguation pages because I just quickly added the cities. I figured that someone else would have to check every... single... page but this bot did it for me/them. Thank you! Devin Davis (talk) 22:22, 8 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:Me_at_the_Zoo.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading File:Me_at_the_Zoo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 23:58, 21 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

More information needed about File:Across the Sky.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:Across the Sky.jpg. However, it needs some more work before it is okay to use on Wikipedia.

Please click here and do the following:

  1. Add a description of where the image comes from (not what it is) and who the creator is. Please be specific, and include a link if you can.
  2. Find the appropriate license from the list of free, non-free media, or public domain options. Copy the license template and paste it in the file's page, and save.

If you follow these steps, your image can help enhance Wikipedia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the media copyright questions page.

Thank you for your contribution! --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 08:05, 28 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Granbury High School

edit

I wanted to explain why I modified your article on Granbury High School. I have done well over 200 of these types of articles and I wanted to add clarity and consistancy to what I have done in previous articles to yours. It really looks good and I only really had to add the athletic achievements and update a few things in the infobox. The only thing I felt took away from the article was all of the wiki links to the various sports. My articles do not have those (I assume that readers know what basketball and baseball are.) Your school infobox must be the UK one since I could not get the school colors info to show up without using (colours). I try hard not to undo what someone has already done unless it is not factually correct, out of date, or missing key info. Hope that you can do a few more school articles from the area - I just can't seem to get to all of them myself! Indyjrg1762 (talk) 18:49, 29 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. When you recently edited Falling Down (Space Cowboy song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ning (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
