University of Manchester images

Hi there. Thanks for uploading Image:Manchester Mark 1.jpg and Image:Manchester University Crest.jpg. Could I ask you to add a source link and a fair use rationale for each? It doesn't have to be very complicated, just something like the description pages of Image:Surrey University arms.png or Image:Gloucestershire University arms.png. I can help with fair use rationales, but I can't tell you where you got the images from! The licensing tag you applied to Manchester Mark 1.jpg comes preloaded with a speedy deletion notice, and it will vanish fairly swiftly if you don't add a source and rationale. I agree that both images are indeed Fair Use in their respective articles. — mholland 18:43, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

I apologise; Manchester Mark 1.jpg already has a source. Just a rationale for that one. Thank you. — mholland 18:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Mholland, thanks for the message. Regarding the Manchester coat of arms image, I received it from one of my teammates since we use the crest for our sports kits to represent the uni. The website [1] mentions that the crest is retained primarily for ceremonial and sporting occasions. However, given that almost all university teams wear the coat of arms on their sports kits, I find it useful to put it on Wikipedia. TheDanNr9 19:52, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the late response. I notice that Image:Manchester Mark 1.jpg has already been disappeared for improper licensing. You re-uploaded, but with an identical copyright tag. Please note that when you add {{Non-commercial from license selector}}, the image is automatically added to a list of images for deletion, which is policed fairly strictly by admins.

I have replaced your summary with a description, source, copyright tag and fair use rationale. I have also removed the image from the article University of Manchester, because I don't think that fair use extends to its decorative use on that page. Feel free to amend the rationale on the image summary page if you disagree.

My apologies if this seems a bit strange: Wikipedia takes copyright law very seriously. Thanks for contributing. — mholland 18:32, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Manchester University Crest.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Manchester University Crest.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:35, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Manchester University Crest.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Manchester University Crest.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 13:13, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
