License tagging for Image:Tonytammaro.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Tonytammaro.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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

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. 15:09, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Greek to me

Greetings. I just wrote the page Greek to me. I am comparing similar expressions in other languages. I was wondering if you would be able to add the expression in any languages with which you are comfortable. Btw, I just found your page/profile by running a search for users who have a level 4/level 5 ability in non-English languages. Thanks much! samwaltz 05:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:Robbie_Williams_Photo.jpg

Unspecified source for Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Robbie Williams Photo.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, then 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, then 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-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 14:34, 28 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Tabercil 14:34, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Your edit to Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg

Message posted on Sunday, April 29, 2007

Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.cool-midi.com/robbie-williams-free-midi-28.htm in this case) 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.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article [[Talk:Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg|Talk page]] and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
• If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg]] with a link to where we can find that note;
• If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article [[Talk:Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg|Talk page]]. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg]] with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Robbie Williams Photo.jpg]] saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Your original contributions are welcome.

Fair use rationale for Image:Singer Robbie Williams.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Singer Robbie Williams.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles 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 fair use images 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.

Image:Singer Robbie Williams.jpg

I have swapped out your image of Robbie Williams as per Wikipedia's fair use policy, specifically clause one of Policy:

"1. Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose. If non-free content can be transformed into free material, this is done instead of using a fair-use defense. Non-free content is always replaced with a freer alternative if one of acceptable quality is available." (emphasis mine)

And also clauses 5 and 8 of the Unacceptable use part of the policy:

"5. A photo from a press agency (e.g., Reuters, AP), not so famous as to be iconic, to illustrate an article on the subject of the photo. If photos are themselves newsworthy (e.g., a photo of equivalent notoriety as the Muhammad cartoons newspaper scan), low-resolution versions of the photos may be "fair use" in related articles."

"8. An image of a living person that merely shows what s/he looks like. The rationale is that this is potentially replaceable with a freshly produced free photograph."

Thank you for your understanding. Tabercil 20:33, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

• It's nice that you provided a rationale behind the picture, but it still fails the criteria stated above. Sorry. Tabercil 18:25, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

• • Excuse me, may I ask why you keep adding the same pic to the article, even after I explained why it can't be used?? Tabercil 22:15, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

I saw your message on my user talk page and I do understand your confusion. It took me a few read throughs of the fair use policy to grasp the concept but it's rather simple... Wikipedia has an inherent, fundamental bias: free use images will always be used over fair use images wherever possible. The image you uploaded is fair use, the image I keep replacing it with is free use. A specific fair use image is usable only if there is no possibility of a free use image being created to do the same job. The image you keep putting in the info box has one basic use: it is a generic image of Robbie Williams showing what he looks like. As a result, any given free use image will do the same trick.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Singer Robbie Williams.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Singer Robbie Williams.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 '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.

Robbie Williams Discography

Your readdition of a gallery of album covers to Robbie Williams is being reverted. Please read User:Durin/Fair use overuse explanation for an explanation of and pointers to the relevant policies. ~ BigrTex 15:42, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Now I've reverted your readdition of album covers to Robbie Williams discography for the same reason. ~ BigrTex 15:32, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

• And now I've reverted it again. Images are being removed from discographies across the entire project. See User:Durin/Fair Use Overuse and search for "discography". You'll see a dizzying array of articles on which the galleries of fair use images have been removed. That there are still discographies extant with fair use galleries just means we haven't gotten to those articles yet. This is entirely in keeping with our policies on the issue, as described at Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria items #3(a) and #8, and in keeping with Foundation:Resolution:Licensing policy, which is the Wikimedia Foundation's stance on the matter, in which they specifically state that fair use must be used minimally. Please do not restore the fair use album covers to the discography again. The album covers are welcome on the articles about the album in particular, but not in discographies. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. However, simply reverting because you disagree with this policy is not acceptable. Thank you, --Durin 13:37, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
• I've also just now removed 20 fair use images from the Robbie Williams article. See [1] for an explanation as to why. --Durin 14:20, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Image:Tonytammaro.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Tonytammaro.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. The Evil Spartan 16:17, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

About the 90's

I didn't upload a copyrighted article on Wikipedia. The 90's was taken from and old article, The 80's/The 90's. I renamed that article in The 80's and copied the paragraph about the 90's in a new article. It is not copyright violation because the paragraph about that rap song was copied on a forum by somebody after the creation of the article The 80's/The 90's. --Juliuscaesar100-44 11:43, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Marco DiCaprio

A tag has been placed on Marco DiCaprio requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- lucasbfr ^talk 19:23, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends cut and paste move

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently copied the contents of a page and pasted it into another with a different name. Specifically, you copied the contents of Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. This is what we call a "cut and paste move", and it is very undesirable because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. The mechanism we use for renaming an article is to move it to a new name which both preserves the page's history and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself by this process, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves to request the move by another. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. - kollision (talk) 10:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on The Mystery of Easter Island, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. andy (talk) 12:26, 4 October 2008 (UTC) The article doesnt really meet the criterion for that-- As reviewing administrator: I think the article not purely promotional -- speedy declined. Butthere is no chance at all that the book is notable, given that it is self published, and not even in libraries yet & is the authors first work. So:

Proposed deletion of The Mystery of Easter Island

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The Mystery of Easter Island, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
Frankly, I would let it be deleted. If the prod is removed, it will surely be sent to afd, and surely be deleted there. When the book is reviewed in major publications, then rewrite an article citing them. DGG (talk) 16:41, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

{{inuse}} tags

Hi there. Please respect it if another editor tags an article with {{inuse}} to avoid unnecessary edit conflicts. If you plan to make major edits on an article yourself, please use the tag first as well. Otherwise you will cause more work for other editors who have to integrate their major edits into yours, thus costing everyone involved more time. Regards SoWhy 09:45, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Btw, good work on expanding this nevertheless. If I can get the nominator to withdraw the AFD, I'll take it to WP:DYK. Regards SoWhy 09:54, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject Latin

I am not sure whether you are familiar with a WikiProject or not (a description can be found here) but I'm planning on starting one for the Latin language. This is mainly because Latin is and has been such an important language in the history of western civilization but the article is only rated a 'C'. If you support my proposal then please sign your name on the proposal page here. 95jb14 (talk) 15:06, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Greatest Hits 2007 Robbie Williams.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Greatest Hits 2007 Robbie Williams.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).

PLEASE NOTE:

• I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
• I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
• If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
• To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
• If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:18, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Proposed deletion of Se Potrei Avere Te

The article Se Potrei Avere Te has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The page has had no proper references or citations since its creation 16 years ago.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:01, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
