John Paul Jones

Thanks for correcting the address at John Paul Jones. You can add a reference link to Wikipedia by adding <ref>link</ref> immediately after a word or sentence. This will add a footnote to the article, as long as {{relist}} appears near the article's end. If you don't want the bare URL to appear, add a single bracket before "http:", leave a space, then add a title and close the bracket, like this:
<ref>[http://www.uswarmemorials.org/html/site_details.php?SiteID=238 John Paul Jones House]</ref>.
For more info see WP:REF. Hope this helps. Station1 (talk) 07:47, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif

Thanks for uploading File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 21:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif

Thank you for uploading File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Yes this is my photo, created by me, and I give everyone rights to use it but only ask, not demand, that they mention my site when using it. Just tell me what the right copyright code is. I thought I had the right one. John Edward Steckroth 16:34, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif

A tag has been placed on File:Americanwarmewmrev.tif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

All claims of having received permission to use, having been given an image for use, or must be confirmed through the WP:ORTS system. Please follow the instructions at that link and have the copyright holder send the requested e-mail to the address on that page. Once received, an admin with OTRS will restore the image with the correct ticket number. Without that proof at this point, the OTRS ticket is the best way to assure there are no further contestings of the (c) status of the image. Skier Dude (talk) 02:30, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Every image has a copyright - or if you prefer, a copyright status. The non-profit may have released it as a creative commons license, or it may be below the threshold of originality to be considered a text-logo. If you could post a link to the actual image in question, I would be able to give you a better/clearer answer as to the actual license that would apply.
