Image copyright problem with Image:Era.jpg
editThank you for uploading Image:Era.jpg. 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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 02:44, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Era.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Era.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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 non-free media 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. Shell babelfish 01:01, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Era.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Era.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:51, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

GTA
editI noticed that you created Category:Artists featured on Grand Theft Auto and thought you should know (if you didn't already) that Category:Grand Theft Auto songs was deleted by consensus sometime in May. I wasn't involved in the decision and really don't care either way, but the category you created might eventually be challenged and deleted on whatever grounds were used on that case. Here is the archived debate on the matter. InnocuousPseudonym 17:48, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
