Images on your userpage

I have removed two images on your userpage because they violate fair use. The pictures are protected under copyright, so they need a free use rationale, which is provided on the files' pages and which you broke by adding to your userpage. In short...don't do that. –TCN7JM 01:06, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

What did I just get done telling you about fair use? Don't put copyrighted images on your userpage. Claiming you created Mario Tennis isn't good either. –TCN7JM 01:22, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

March 2013

An image or media file has been removed from your userpage, user talk page, or other page because it was licensed as non-free. Wikipedia's non-free policy states that Copyrighted images under fair use are only allowed to be used in articles about the subject of the image, and only if no free equivalent is available. For example they are not allowed to be used on user pages, in lists, or (typically) in biographies of living people. As a result, although users are often given a great amount of latitude in the type of content that is allowed on their user pages, it is requested that you abide by this policy. Feel free, however, to add images and media files licensed under other terms. For more information, see Wikipedia's non-free content policy and an accompanying essay on the removal of non-freeimages. Further use of these images will be considered vandalism, and shall be treated as such. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. –TCN7JM 01:36, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Images

Hey there! When adding images to your userpage, please check to see whether or not they're protected under copyright. Honestly, I am getting a bit annoyed at having to tell you this multiple times, but I realized that I never told you how to check, so that's my fault. If there's a license on the file's page that says it is protected by copyright with a "free use rationale" above it, then the picture was only meant to be used on the one article it's currently on and nowhere else. Please ask me if you have any questions. –TCN7JM 02:59, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

I get the more likely feeling that this is a sock of Mason Decker (talk · contribs), since there's been some rather WP:DUCKish behavior also coming from Iggy Decker (talk · contribs), Larry Decker (talk · contribs), and Wendy Decker (talk · contribs). ZappaOMati 03:33, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
