Unspecified source for Image:Andreayates.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Andreayates.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then you need to specify who owns the copyright, please. If you got it from a website, then a link to the website where it was taken from 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 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}} 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 20:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 20:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Andreayates.jpg

edit
  This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Andreayates.jpg. I notice the 'image' 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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 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. —Angr 20:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Moon God

edit

Several of the sources you provided are not saying anything about moon-God. Please specify your most reliable source on the talk page and we'll verify it. If true, we add it to the article. How is that? --Aminz 06:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Mrbradford, we don't need many sources. One reliable source is usually enough for inclusion. --Aminz 07:10, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

That's correct. Let's focus on identifying which, if any, credible source identifies Allah as a pagan god of war and the moon.
In the meantime, I direct your attention to WP:3RR, which you have (probably inadvertently) violated. I invite you to self-revert and solve this through discussion. Otherwise either I or Aminz might report your violation to WP:ANI/3RR. A self-revert would be a welcome sign of good faith and would avoid any such action.Proabivouac 08:04, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
I haven't meant to revert; I intend to expound/clarify. I am fairly new to editing Wikipedia and am unsure how to self-revert or to which prior revision you propose I revert to. Mrbradford 08:19, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
All you have to do to self-revert (or to revert anything else) is to look through the history (one of tthe tabs atop the window) select a version prior to the edits you wish to undo (in this case[1]), select the "edit" tab and save the previous version.Proabivouac 09:23, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Historical Muhammad

edit

I was listening to an interview with James Murk. Horribly unscholarly, I'm sorry! To say one among his many mistakes, was his lack of knowledge of historical Muhammad. Please take a look at [2]. --Aminz 10:05, 10 February 2007 (UTC)Reply


Non-free use disputed for Image:Andreayates.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Andreayates.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 02:57, 26 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 20:40, 31 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
