Image permission problem with Image:CIM general horizontal bue.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:CIM general horizontal bue.jpg. 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. ╟─TreasuryTag►hemicycle─╢ 13:53, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

- As I stated in the discussion, this file is byte-identical to http://www.concretedegree.com/images/sponsors.jpg found on http://www.concretedegree.com/sponsors/index.html . I infer that you saved the image from that webpage and then uploaded it to Wikipedia. Due to copyright laws, Wikipedia cannot accept just any image. Images either need to be in the public domain, or licensed with a GFDL or certain Creative Commons licenses. There are exceptions for certain cases, which might apply to your other copyright problem above, but they don't apply to pictures of living people. Any modern image you find - anywhere - is or was copyrighted, and can't be used in Wikipedia unless the author specifies one of the above licenses.
- If you took that picture, you have the right to release it to the public domain; but since it's been on that site for awhile, and since it's surely much smaller than the original, that looks unlikely to me. Are you the owner or operator of http://www.concretedegree.com/ ? If so, if you could add a note somewhere on the site that this particular image is public domain, and then mention it in the discussion, that would probably clear the whole thing up. If you have the original image in a larger size and could upload that, that would be even better!
- P.S. Sorry about the double-post. I've fixed NoScript so it shouldn't happen again.
- Thanks! — Ken g6 (talk) 21:15, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
- As stated above, if you have permission:
- 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.
- It would also probably be a good idea to preemptively do this for any other media from that page that you've posted to Wikipedia. Thanks! — Ken g6 (talk) 21:02, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Dry Gas Seal
edit
A tag has been placed on Dry Gas Seal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Dry Gas Seal. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you. RadioFan (talk) 17:57, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Bearing (mechanical). Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" is strongly discouraged. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Wizard191 (talk) 18:00, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with Dry Gas Seal. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. RadioFan (talk) 18:50, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you add inappropriate external links, as you did with this edit to End face mechanical seal. Alansohn (talk) 19:00, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of Dry Gas Seal
editThis article has been deleted for copyright infringement. While you announced your intention to fix the stated questions, there is little or no salvageable content which has not been copied from copyrighted sources. If you would like to re-create the article you may, but you must be sure to use your own words and cite reliable sources. If you have any questions you can reach me on my talk page. -RunningOnBrains(talk) 19:26, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Concrete industry related work
editHi there, I see you are primarily contributing in the concrete industry and manufacturing fields. Based on your work at Concrete Industry Management, I would like to make a few notes for the future. If you'd look at the edits I made with this diff, you'll see I removed all of the interwiki links at the end of the page (such as "bs:Concrete Industry Management (CIM)"). This is because articles must already exist at those other languages before such links will work...simply creating the link does not translate the article into those languages. You'll note I also took out the concrete-related categories, because those categories did not exist and thus linking to them served no function. When creating articles or linking to articles, please do not include acronyms at part of the title, such as with "Concrete Industry Management (CIM)" or "Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU)". Especially in the case of linking, this would cause the link to not work (you'd see it coloured red on the page).
I also need to raise the issue of images you've uploaded. Looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&user=Smbrown123, I notice everything has been licensed as released by you to the public domain, yet several of these images are logos or obvious corporate images. If you can prove you own the copyright to these images, otherwise the images will have to be re-licensed and a valid source provided for each, else they'll be deleted. I'll be happy to work with you on this issue. Please respond here or on my talk page regarding this issue and any questions or comments you might have, when you have the chance. Cheers! — Huntster (t • @ • c) 01:12, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The article Constructive Communication has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Unambiguous advertisement for a non-notable business. "References" provided establish mostly that this is a professional spammer: they're only superficially impressive, and turn out to be all internal or to regurgitated press releases in local trade or business papers. Promotional intent is obvious.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
