Fair use rationale for Image:Escanaba in da Moonlight.JPG

edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Escanaba in da Moonlight.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. Ricky81682 (talk) 06:03, 4 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:WOGB Logo.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:WOGB Logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:32, 7 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Logology article

edit

Hello,

I found you via "what links here" on logology and thought you might be able to help with the new logology page I'm working on, since you're interested in it. I will be editing that page occasionally in the next few weeks as I learn more about the subject.

Hope to see you there! Scientific29 (talk) 03:03, 3 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of extreme points of U.S. states and territories, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cape Blanco. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
