I'm a little concerned about your article, Vassals-in-chief. I've never heard this term before, and it's hard to tell whether you are talking about some fictional usage or trying to relate the term to real-life history - and if so, in what country or region? Also, the titles of articles need to be in the singular. A quick look at the references above will help. Deb 16:44, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hi. I'd just like to point out that the text that you've attached to you're image (i.e. "Limited license is granted to Wikipedia to diplay the image in context and for use within the confines of Wikipedia itself.") is not concistent with the GFDL licensing or Wikipedia policy. Images on Wikipedia require that anyone can use it for any purpose.
If the usage outhwith Wikipedia is not acceptible then say so and the image will be deleted, if it on the other hand this isn't a problem then just delete this sentence from the image description. I hope that you will chose the latter since it's a very wellmade and descriptive image.
If you're worried that people will use you're image without saying that you've made it then you can clarify that you require this by changing the license to {{cc-by-sa-2.5}}, this requires anyone who uses the image to give you proper attribution as it's creator.
If you have any questions then just ask here, I'll add the page to my watchlist. /Lokal_Profil 21:30, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

The same thing obviously aplies to any other of you're images which are marked with "It may be used in conjunction with Wikipedia" or similar. /Lokal_Profil 21:32, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

---Youre right. It was the first thing I ever did at Wikipedia and I didn't really undersstand the copyright rules. I'll change the tag.

Thanks. It's probably safest to rephrase Image:Adson forceps.jpg and Image:Kelly Forceps.jpg too. /Lokal_Profil 20:25, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as in Talk:Star Trek#Criticism is kind of strange, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. FastLizard4 (Talk•Links•Sign) 00:54, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Greetings! This image looks like it was made in a drawing application such as Illustrator, CorelDraw or Inkscape. If it was, would you be able to upload the original vector file in SVG format? Many thanks, Stannered (talk) 16:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Medicine/Dermatology task force

I wanted to know if you (or any friends of yours) are interested in dermatology, and would be willing to help me with the WikiProject Medicine/Dermatology task force? kilbad (talk) 08:41, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Charles lindbergh aviator leather helmet ca1927.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Charles lindbergh aviator leather helmet ca1927.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 16:36, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
