Welcome!
edit- Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
- Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
- You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
- If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
- Full details on Wikipedia style can be found in the Manual of Style.
This is very late I'm afraid, and you'll already know all the above — but better a late welcome than no welcome at all (I hope). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 7 July 2005 21:35 (UTC)
Hi -- I just marked Image:10528-18lax.jpg for deletion. Images with "non-commercial use" licenses can't be used in Wikipedia because restrictions on commercial use are GFDL-incompatiable (please see the image page for details.) jdb ❋ (talk) 8 July 2005 23:39 (UTC)
Images
editHello Robert,
I've just come across one of your images that is untagged. I'm sure it is just an older upload that got overlooked - could you add an appropriate copyright tag.
I see you have uploaded a number of other interesting images, such as Image:51454sweden.jpg. However, it would be better if they had more descriptive file names and had their borders removed. The image description page is the prefered place for descriptions and source links. There is more advice at Wikipedia:Image use policy. -- Solipsist 08:04, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
Gettysburg
editIn case you're not reading the edit summaries, please stop putting that picture into the Gettysburg articles:
- It is completely inappropriate to have pictures with names and websites displayed in them.
- The picture is practically worthless--a modern road and an unreadable sign. It does not meet the style standards of an encyclopedia article.
Thank you for your cooperation. Hal Jespersen 21:51, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Moritzryssby.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --OrphanBot 11:42, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
So strange when one is editing and finds things already fixed (in "Show Changes" display). No edits on Winter War for days and then we were _both_ editing at the same time. :-) Shenme 23:44, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Ussaugusta-80-g-466398.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Ussaugusta-80-g-466398.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Dethomas 20:53, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
External links
editPlease do not add commercial links (or links to your own private websites) to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. See the welcome page to learn more. Thanks. -- Mwanner | Talk 23:48, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
Are you Robert Swanson?
editHi. Could you please state here on your page that you are Robert Swanson? Otherwise, your images with "Source: Robert Swanson" will eventually be deleted as copyrigh violations, unless you can show that Robert Swanson releases all his images on his website under GFDL.
Thanks, Fred-Chess 08:31, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

editPlease stop. If you continue to use Wikipedia for advertising, you will be blocked from editing. Mwanner | Talk 13:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mwanner | Talk 18:06, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, one or more of the external links you added to the page USS Augusta (CA-31) do not comply with our guidelines for external links and have been removed. Wikipedia is not a collection of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. -MBK004 16:38, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with File:Hastingshudson.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Hastingshudson.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}}
(to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 20:43, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
File copyright problem with File:Hastingshudson.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:Hastingshudson.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Radiant chains (talk) 10:14, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation
editYour upload of File:Cerv2.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

File permission problem with File:Matterhornswanson.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Matterhornswanson.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA 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 [email protected], 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 take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File 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 created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 06:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
