Willamette University

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Willamette University appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. —EncMstr (talk) 16:27, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

About COI

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Willamette University, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
3. linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. Katr67 (talk) 22:14, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Additionally, for Wikipedia style info and university articles, read Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities/Article guidelines, which is a big reason much of your edits have been reverted. You might also want to discuss major changes on the article's talk page, so more experienced editors can help you with the overhaul you are trying to accomplish.

File:WUCL.jpg needs authorship information.

Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:WUCL.jpg is missing information as to it's authorship, or if such information is provided it is confusing.

If possible, please add or clarify this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

When adding authorship information to self published work please do NOT use describers such as 'I made this', 'own-work' , 'self-made' or personal names, without making your user name explicit.

This is so that media can be more accurately traced, if it is transferred to Wikimedia Commons.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:13, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:WUCL.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:WUCL.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. Finavon (talk) 19:17, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Images

Hello, are you Frank Miller? If not, why are you uploading pictures of his to Wikipedia? If Mr. Miller took the pictures he most likely owns the copyright, though if he works for Willamette, then they might belong to the school. Either way, we need permission from the copyright owner that this image has been released for use, see Wikipedia:Contact us/Photo submission. Aboutmovies (talk) 16:31, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

I am uploading images for Frank, on his behalf for the University. Is submitting them via email the only way? Thanks I'm going based off of the information about photographs and media files on the Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest page.SassAnne (talk) 16:52, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe email is the only way. You should be able to send an email to the address in the link provided above with the information that page requests, without attaching the file. The reason why an email needs to be involved is, how do we know you are submitting them on behalf of the university, and how do we know you work for the university? I'm assuming you are Anne Marie Becka from WUCL's comm dept, but that is only an assumption. By sending an email from your school account (and matching that with what is listed on the school's webpage), Wikipedia will then know that you are acting with authority to release these photos on behalf of the copyright holder, and not some random person pulling images of the internet as we are all somewhat anonymous. Also note, on the upload form, the date is for when the picture was taken, not the date of upload. Aboutmovies (talk) 07:59, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Also, you might want to consider signing up for a Commons Account to upload these images. The upload process is roughly the same, and using the pictures in Wikipedia is exactly the same. But, it allows the images to be easily used across Wikipedias, such as the German version and Dutch version for example. Aboutmovies (talk) 08:13, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the information, I will definitely utilize it. (I'm not Anne Becka)SassAnne (talk) 15:15, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Jackson Plaza tower.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Jackson Plaza tower.jpg, which you've sourced to Frank Miller. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the 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 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 permissions-enwikimedia.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 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 permissions-enwikimedia.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: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.  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 20:19, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
