Noddy (character)

edit

Hi - and thanks for adding your personal reminiscences of Noddy in Toyland. Unfortunately, personal memories are not particularly useful on wikipedia. Can you find a description of the show in your programme, or possibly a contemporary review that supports your account. Adding a reference will ensure that it is not removed by a subsequent editor as 'unreferenced'. This is known as ensuring verifiability from reliable sources.

Additionally, I had a quick look at the image you added, and I have some concerns about the copyright description. I understand that you probably scanned this yourself from the programme. Unfortunately, the copyright is still vested in the original publisher. All is not lost! If you have a look at File:Noddy Goes To Toyland 1949 cover.jpg that will give you some pointers as to how to provide a 'fair use rationale' for its use.

I know all these things might seem complex but they are necessary to ensure the quality of wikipedia; and will make sure that what you've added is not removed by another editor. Thanks for all your hard work; should you need any help please feel free to contact me. Kbthompson (talk) 13:55, 3 December 2009 (UTC)Reply


Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Noddyatstoll.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Noddyatstoll.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Stefan2 (talk) 17:57, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
