[edit] Gorilaz of da Mist

Howdy and welcome to Wikipedia. It is not, perhaps, the best way I can introduce myself and welcome you to Wikipedia, but I wanted to let you know the page you created, "Gorilaz of da Mist," was nominated for deletion as a non-notable group. Usually to be included in the main article space, the article must be about groups which routinely appear in the news or other published reports (so the information in the article can be verified). If you think the material is notable, feel free to put a {{hangon}} below the notice, and discuss why you think the group is notable (ideally cite published accounts if you can). I am attaching a welcome message below this, since it has some useful links. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if I can be of any help. Thanks, --TeaDrinker 02:00, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Pldecal.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pldecal.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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 Image legality questions page. Thank you. --Nivus(talk) 14:04, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
