Copyright of Image:Frankie1.jpg

Hi there, thanks for uploading Image:Frankie1.jpg. I noticed that there is some required information missing from the image description. The Wikimedia Foundation has to be very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page:

• who created the image
• the copyright status

If you created the image:
If you haven't already, please add a note in the description of the image saying that you created it.
Next you need to choose a copyright license so that people on Wikipedia know what they can and cannot do with your image. There are only a few licenses to choose from for images you created yourself. Once you have decided which one you wish to use, simply copy the tag exactly as shown into the image description. Please note that you MUST allow people to freely use and copy your image (you may apply some conditions to that), else it may not be used on Wikipedia.

If you didn't create the image:
If you haven't already, please provide a URL to the site it came from (or the name of the source if it didn't come from a website) and the name of the person or organisation that owns the copyright.
You next need to add a copyright tag so that other users know how the image may be used. Please browse the list of image copyright tags and determine which applies to the image. If, after browsing this page, you are unsure of the tag to add, please add a {{Don't know}} tag to the image description and someone will help you choose the correct tag.

Please note that if you do not choose a copyright tag for the image within seven days, it will be deleted. Please could you ensure that any other images you have uploaded also have the above information in the description - you can see a list of the images you've uploaded by clicking on My Contributions and selecting Image from the drop-down box. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on my talk page. Thanks! --David Johnson [T|C] 01:07, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

• Hi. Unfortunately the 'promomotional photograph' tag only really applies to officially released photographs released to promote a person or organisation (in this case it would have to have been released by the record company). Futhermore, I'm afraid re-uploading and selecting a license doesn't actually save the license anywhere (I don't know why, it just doesn't...) so the image was still un-tagged. I've reviewed the source URL you added and determined that Wikipedia can use the image under fair use. I've added the appropriate tag and an explaination of why I think it is fair use to the image.

Image copyright problem with Image:Blaine-Larsen.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Blaine-Larsen.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. --OrphanBot 05:35, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

christian reincarnation complication

I noticed on your user page that among your hundreds of tags you have that you're a christian and you believe in reincarnation (and several other things). I'm not trying to give you a hard time but don't those two beliefs conflict? and if you don't think they do, does that mean jesus is on the earth right now, possibly as a ladybug?

New Wiki

That's quite a lot of user boxes, but I've seen more ;) I'm contacting people who have depression userboxes. I'm working on a new wiki about depression, and thought you might be interested. It's planned to be a resource for people with dpression, and a wiki community. It's over at Wikicities (a project started by Jimbo and Angela), perhaps you'd like to have a look? The url is http://depression.wikicities.com . Thanks -- sannse (talk) 14:48, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Image:NERD.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NERD.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShadowHalo 22:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
