Hello Pwu, welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. You can learn more on the how to edit page. The naming conventions and manual of style pages are also useful. Feel free to experiment at the Wikipedia:Sandbox. If you have any questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump. Angela

The Dallas pictures are excellent. Just two problems:

1. They may be too large for some browsers (particularly the damned alkward Internet Explorer) so need to be reduced in size somewhat, particularly the top on which has text wrapped it.

2. What is their source? Wiki has to be careful about images and as an encyclopædia has to avoid any breach of copyright. So if you have any information, please supply it on the image page. Without any source information there is the likelihood that they will have to be removed from the Dallas page. That would be a great pity because if we can have them then given their quality we would be mad not to. So if you have source information or evidence that they are copyright free, please do supply it. Enjoy the wikipedia. :-) FearÉIREANN 00:26 4 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Hiya. Thanks for the message. (JTD here, not Ann! :-) ) I know the trials of trying to find images off the net. The trouble is that while most web pages can and do break copyright law (should they be 'caught', they promptly shut down and the owner disappears!) wiki cannot do so because, with over 100,000 articles and hundreds of contributors wiki obviously cannot 'shut and run' in the event of any legal difficulties. I have a hunch that given the quality of the images they may be produced by some public body, perhaps promoting Dallas tourism. Wiki basically needs either a grant of unrestricted usage (I is a bit more complicated but it is 6.33am here and I am too knackered to think! Check the link on copyright and you'll find the details) or what is called fair use (again complicated, but if wiki claims fair use it likes somewhere to be able to say where the image came from/who took it etc, so that if someone jumps up screaming about copyright, we can say 'we used it under fair use and went so far as to acknowledge its origins/photographer/agency, etc. That sort of info goes a long way to mollifying irate people worrying over copyright.

So basically the more info that you can provide the better. if you want guidance, ask someone like User:Maveric149. Mav is very helpful and will be able to give you help. But as I say, the whole issue of copyright is very very touchy because wiki cannot afford to get into legal difficulties over its right to use images.

Re their size, I checked and yes the top image is way to big. It is something like 430+ in width. The absolute maximum should be 300. I know it sounds small but some browsers (principally the hideously awful Internet Explorer) tend to make images and captions bigger on a page than other browsers.

An image of width 300 around which
text wraps produces a column about
this size even with the deadly annoying
Internet Explorer.
.

However a 400+
width image
using Internet
Explorer can
reduce text
to a column
of this size,
hideously
distorting
the page.

I learned that from experience. Though I personally hate something as small as 300 in width it really is the maximum if pages are not to appear all scrunched up on IE. Even having the image totally separate from text can cause problems the damned IE. (One of IE's other curses is that it reads italicised captions differently on wiki, often turning them into barely legible spidery text. (Though Netscape goes one step further by reading captions written in small size as full size, throwing pages carefully laid out by people into utter chaos, with overlapping captions and pictures, weird text wraps. Sometimes I think that God created Internet Explorer and Netscape as a cruel joke to annoy computer users!)

My 'favourite' IP nightmare involved playing ping pong with an image!. On my screen the image location looked all wrong. I changed it, someone got annoyed and screamed 'what the hell did you do that for? You have mucked up the page!' before moving it back. And their action threw my page into chaos and looked hideous, so I changed it back, they changed it again . . . Finally after a fierce battle and all sorts of accusations, we discovered that the problem was IE. For some reason it showed the picture in one location on my screen, in another on the other person's. So each 'fix' made by me screwed up the other person's page, and their changes screwed up mine, because we were being shown 2 different versions of the one page! That was the day I abandoned IE and moved to Safari!!! It is much much better.

If you cannot shrink the image down I will do it for you, but not tonight, as I am too knackered. Anyway, enjoy the wiki. Don't worry about making the odd muck up or two. We all have done so. Have a word with Mav for guidance on images; if he doesn't know he will be able to direct you to someone who will. And the more information you can find on the sources of those images the better. Happy wiki-ing. FearÉIREANN 05:58 4 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Regarding edits made during December 5 2006 (UTC) to American Jews

Please stop. If you continue to blank pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. —Řÿūłóñģ (竜龍) 09:53, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Please make your tests in a personal sandbox before doing that massive change to the article. A lot of it was poorly formatted, which is why I have reverted it, again.—Řÿūłóñģ (竜龍) 19:18, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Category killer

The list of category killers you've re-added:

a) Is unreferenced b) Has serious inaccuracies c) Is completely inadequate if it is to stay (there are regional differences, and the list would have to encompass all the world, not just a couple countries

In short, the list is, I'm afraid, going to have to stay gone.

Re: About Boomburb

Quoted:

Snickerdo, don't hold your breath about any lack of edit wars with Trorov. If you've looked through the history of the boomburb Wikipedia entry, you will see how long the war has gone on, back and forth. For weeks, if not months. I support your changes 100% and have always undone Trorov's edits if he undoes mine.

Well, I put him up on the noticeboard and he's been blocked for 48 hours. If it continues, they'll just continue to block him for longer periods. I wouldn't worry, it appears that the admins now know what's going on. Good to know I'm not alone in this, though. Have a great evening! Snickerdo 04:33, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey that MSNBC logo had already been uploaded so I have nominated it for deletion as a better version exists. Also I have reverted your edit. That MSNBC logo is for the MSNBC.com site not the channel itself. Thanks - Mike Beckham 04:11, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:SpringBreak07-MS.png

Thanks for uploading Image:SpringBreak07-MS.png. 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 22:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. _└ ^UkPaolo/_talk^┐ 22:26, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Image on Dallas, Texas

Your image was taken from nearly the exact same vantage point as Image:Xvixionx 29 April 2006 Dallas Skyline.jpg which is already in the article. (You park at the rec center or along one of the street caps north of 8th street, hop the levee, and shoot). I'm sure it's a matter of pride to have your image in the article, however the image that is already there is of higher quality. It's brighter, has better detail, and is clipped correctly. Some tips on improving your image would be changing to a higher resolution option on your camera, cropping out unattractive un-necessaries in your image perhaps by using a 9:16 crop ratio instead of the standard 3:4 (i.e. to remove the sewer cap), and taking it under better lighting conditions (dark clouds and bright skies on opposing sides of a frame, at least with the aperture and shutter speed your camera was set on, produces muted or blown tones in the final image (here, both)). The Wikimedia Commons is an image repository.. having redundant images on a single article here on the Wikipedia is looked down upon — typically the highest quality of a set will be chosen to remain on the encyclopedia article.

And yeah, I used to frequent the forum.. now i just skim every couple of weeks. -- drumguy8800 C T 10:21, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:BobEvansLogo.png

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:BobEvansLogo.png. 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, 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, 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}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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 20:13, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Washington U.

Hello, I noticed you've made edits to WUSTL articles or that you are in some way connected to Washington University in St. Louis. I thought you might want to become a member of Washington University in St. Louis WikiProject . We've recently built the project page and started a drive to improve articles in the WUSTL series. Please take a look to edit an article or add one of your own. Once an article's status has been agreed upon, feel free to stop by and lend a hand in getting it to featured article status. Hope you can participate!

Dallas

Before I jumped the gun with an RV, I wanted to ask you first where you were getting your information for the edits you added to the Dallas article. There are no references but I wanted to give you a chance to cite a few before I undid your well thought out (but at times seemingly pov) edits. Statements like "In addition, the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex is home to the largest Nigerian population in the United States." are stated as a matter of fact without a source to back it up.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

License tagging for Image:DisneylandLogo.png

Thanks for uploading Image:DisneylandLogo.png. 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) 00:08, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: Vector Images

I use Inkscape, too. It's useful to play around with the tools before you start retracing. Also, get as big of an image that you can before retracing. It helps accuracy. You might want to seek help here. They should be able to help you, as even some of my retraces are a little rough around the edges. Thanks!

Image permission problem with Image:ElectionPrecincts1.png

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:ElectionPrecincts1.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 17:10, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

MY photos and images

Um, I would like to know why you think I have a history of uploading non-free or copyright images. Please don't go around accusing me of that and then recommending my images for deletion. Some of the images you have put on deletion notice are photos I have personally taken MYSELF. I ask that you take those notices off all the images I have posted. If you refuse to do so, you can expect that I will report you. --Pwu2005 ^(talk) 17:43, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for using my message wizard. However, you appear to have selected the wrong option. You selected "You need details of an OTRS ticket" but your message does not have anything to do with OTRS.

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. We hope that copyright holders will release images and text under a free license, but that is not always the case.

It is clear from the long list of image warnings on your talk page that you do, in fact, have a history of uploading images which don't conform to various policies. Therefore, I maintain that statement.

I decline to remove the {{PUI}} tags. If you feel that any of the listings I have made are incorrect, feel free to comment at the appropriate section of Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images/2008 December 5. It would help your case if you provide a link to a site clearly connected with you where you have previously uploaded some or all of the disputed images, or some other proof that the images are yours.

For your reference, Wikipedia:Dispute resolution outlines options you have if you consider yourself to be in a dispute with me. Stifle (talk) 17:16, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Stifle:

If you would have taken the time to look at which images I have uploaded that are considered non-free, they are all logos of companies and organizations. That makes your point of my having a history of uploading copyrighted images a complete waste of my time and yours. Obviously, if I've made the mistake of uploading logos without appropriate licensing, it indicates mere inexperience and should NOT affect the deletion status of photos I have taken myself. Go to my Flickr page if you want evidence that the photos of city scenes you have tagged for deletion are my own... http://www.flickr.com/photos/yuman/

I will not tolerate the inappropriate tagging of my images for deletion, and again, I will report you if you continue to inappropriately tag my images for deletion.

Phillip Wu (User:Pwu2005)

Thank you for your message. In future, please sign your messages by typing ~~~~ at the end.

Copyright problems with File:Dallasskyline0003.png

Hello. Concerning your contribution, File:Dallasskyline0003.png, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.flickr.com/photos/yuman/2764859552/in/set-72157604279241317/. As a copyright violation, File:Dallasskyline0003.png appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. File:Dallasskyline0003.png has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image 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 at [[Talk:File:Dallasskyline0003.png]] 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:File:Dallasskyline0003.png]] with a link to where we can find that note.
• If you hold 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 [[Talk:File:Dallasskyline0003.png]].

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you. Uncia (talk) 20:42, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from File:Dallasskyline0003.png, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's [[Talk:File:Dallasskyline0003.png|talk page]]. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. --Uncia (talk) 21:21, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Images

Hello. I'm wondering from the above if perhaps you do not understand the process by which you can verify your identity and your right to release these images on Wikipedia. The simplest method, if the flicker page you've referenced belongs to you, is to first post the images there and release them under a license compatible with Wikipedia. The images that I see at that site are all currently marked "copyright reserved", including this, referenced in the note directly above. This would be by far the easiest, as a direct link to that source with the proper release would eliminate all future concerns. The next method would require verification via direct communication with the Wikimedia Foundation. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for specifics. As you have been contributing to Wikipedia but have not responded to the images listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images, as advised above, I'm afraid that these will be deleted. If you are able to verify your ownership of the images so that we know that we are legally allowed to accept your donation, then we would be very happy not only to restore them to Wikipedia, but also to place them on Wikimedia Commons, where they may be utilized by Wikipedia projects in all languages. I'm sorry for the complexity of these processes, but the purpose in this verification is to legally protect Wikipedia as well as copyright holders. As I presume you are a photographer, I hope that you will understand this. If Wikipedia publishes a photograph, it is quickly mirrored around the world, which can seriously hurt marketability of an image. This is why if a question is raised, we do need verification of identity. Jumping through these hoops can be a pain, but it's intended to benefit you as well as to legally protect the project.

I will be traveling over the next week. If you have questions about these processes, I'll be happy to help you as much as I am able after my return. In the meantime, you can probably find assistance at the help desk. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 13:27, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:JCPenneyLogo.png)

You've uploaded File:JCPenneyLogo.png, and indicated that it's used under Wikipedia's rules for non-free images. However, it's not presently used in any articles. Wikipedia policy requires that non-free images be either used or deleted, so if this image isn't used in an article in the next week, it will be deleted.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 08:55, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:LastfmScreenshot.png)

Thanks for uploading File:LastfmScreenshot.png. 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. BJBot (talk) 05:32, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Diva Zappa

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Diva Zappa, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

I suggested over a fortnight ago that I didn't feel that Zappa was notable enough to have her own Wiki page and used the notability tag. No-one has made any effort in establishing notability and when I have searched for her on Google, I found little that suggested anything other than very minor claims for notability.

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.

Removal of user space draft of Alabama article

Hi, I removed your userspace draft of the Alabama article for the following reasons:

1. No editing activity on it since you added it to your primary userpage in March 2010.
2. It still contained the active templates and categories of the Alabama page, which is against the WP:User pages guideline: Wikipedia:User pages#Categories, templates, and redirects.
3. It was a word for word copy of the original article as it appeared at the time that it was copied and pasted from the article mainspace, which is also against the guidelines: Wikipedia:User pages#Pages that look like articles, copy pages, project pages.

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 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:14, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014 Ferguson unrest, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Black Friday. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
