Hi Chris,

I like you have lived in numerous places throughout the world and have a particular love for Japan, hence my SN.

I would really like to you your image on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advertising the one of the advertisement from the Edo period. I read the license agreement but am a bit confused. I would like to use this image in a brochure that will be distributed for non-commercial purposes through my work. But we are a non-profit organisation and I would just like to make sure that I stay clear of any issues, would you please get back to me when you get a chance? My deadline is tonight and I can't find any other photos that fit in with the argument so perfectly.

Thanks!

[edit] Killer whale FPC

Hello. A Featured Picture Candidate you commented on, Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Killer whale mother and calf, is now in the section for "Older nominations requiring additional input from voters." Contributors have tried to improve it after you commented, and your opinion is welcome as to which, if any, of the available versions deserves promotion. I am sending this message to everyone who participated in the FPC. Thanks! Kla'quot 06:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Chris. I'm back from my wikibreak but I think that I'm about to go on a new due to more unpleasant events which make me dislike wikipedia. Do you think that what's been said here[1] is rational? Thanks. Miskin 13:55, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Remove the Forced Redirect

You should probably remove the forced redirect on "Eric Dill." He is no longer with The Click Five and is pursuing a solo career.

[edit] Mark 48 torpedo

I just went a double checked, and I think the images your composite was made from were actually taken by Australians, not US navy. Since they're aussie, crown copyright applies, and it's non-free. We can probably make a case for fair use, but it's gonna have to come off the commons and should probably be delisted as an FPC. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 02:21, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Forced Redirect - Please Remove for Eric Dill

Eric Dill is now the "former" lead singer of The Click Five, and therefore needs his own Wikipedia listing. This is not possible, however, because it is set on forced redirect. Can you please remove the forced redirect on this listing? -- John | 11:48, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale

Hi Chris, I've seen that you've uploaded the Image:ShipPamirFalklandIslandStamp.jpg under a fair use license. Could you please add a rationale for the license? As Wikipedia has several free images, I'm not sure what to base it on. Thanks, Ibn Battuta 17:36, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Hoppla, gerade erst gemerkt, daß Du deutsch sprichst. Egal, antworte, wie Du magst. ^^ --Ibn Battuta 17:37, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Achso, ja, auf das Datum hatte ich noch gar nicht geschaut. Da das Bild neu im Artikel auftauchte, dachte ich, es sei neuer... Würde es Dir etwas ausmachen, wenn ich das Bild zur Löschung melde? Wie gesagt, es gibt mittlerweile mehrere freie Bilder, da finde ich schwer zu begründen, wir bräuchten ausgerechnet dieses... Viele Grüße, Ibn Battuta 06:05, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:BrickWall.jpg

Do you maybe have a larger version of that for commons?
If you have another one please tell me on my commons page
Thanks --D-Kuru 01:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

I see that there is another picture available on the english wikipedia which is bigger.
If you fell like you can upload it. If not, please tell me so that I can do it instead.
--D-Kuru 01:16, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Do you have a version with a higher resolution for commons?

[edit] New WP:TOJO sockpuppet candidates

A number of odd, Tojo-like edits have been showing-up as parkinsonism again. While I've seen Tojoism in action before, this is the first time I've ever dealt with it directly. Would you mind giving me your opinion on the (all brief) edit histories of the following users and whether you agree with my suspicion that they're Tojo socks?

Thanks much. -- MarcoTolo 19:55, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] deleted "Image:Film reel and film.jpg"

deleted "Image:Film reel and film.jpg" (moved to commons) ... Sounds good, but I don't think you caught all the places it was linked from.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Salt Satyagraha.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Salt Satyagraha.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. —Bkell (talk) 22:06, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mushiki

Hi Chris, do you know if the sides of a Mushiki are also made from bamboo? It looks more like some kind of bark; at any rate, the linear markings seem unlike any part of the bamboo plant that comes to mind. Unless it be the 'bark' of a very large bamboo, ironed flat ... ?

[edit] IHO did Not decide to only sea of japan use

  • about sea of japan/east sea edit.

the Ninth Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names elected to retain the title of the body of water as "Sea of Japan". <<?

actually, iho chief said,
"I encourage the three countries concerned to find a solution acceptable to all of them, taking into account any relevant solutions, or else to agree to differ and to report the outcome of these discussions to the next conference."
IHO did not decide to only 'sea of japan' naming use.
The IHO declined the name use both "East Sea" and "Sea of Japan". They did not decide to only sea of japan name use.
1. IHO cheif said, "these discussions to the next conference."
2. Previous IHO's map delete that only "sea of japan" name use.
3. The latest meeting of the International Hydrographic Organization ended without any changes, but South Korea is happy because the head of the organization suggested the moniker “Sea of Japan” be deleted from the world’s oceanographic maps until an agreement on the disputed name can be reached.[3]
4. so, IHO did not decide to exclusively "sea of japan" name use.
According to IHO's technical resolution,
It is recommended that where two or more countries share a given geographical feature (such as, for example, a bay, strait, channel or archipelago) under a different name form, they should endeavour to reach agreement on fixing a single name for the feature concerned. If they have different official languages and cannot agree on a common name form, it is recommended that the name forms of each of the languages in question should be accepted for charts and publications unless technical reasons prevent this practice on small scale charts. e.g. English Channel/La Manche. [4] [5]
so, exclusively 'sea of japan name use' did not permited. "Sea of japan/ East sea"(same use) is right.
I correct from JPOV edit. also, i already discussed in this page.[6]Panelequal3 05:12, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Check the wikipedia Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean) =

Check the Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean). According to Wikipedia naming convention,

Per the vote that took place from 18 July 2005 to 8 August 2005 here, this is the new naming convention for the body of water that separates Japan and Korea:

  1. For all international articles use: [[Sea of Japan]]
  2. For all Japan articles use: [[Sea of Japan]]
  3. For all Japan/Korea and South Korea articles use: [[Sea of Japan]] (East Sea)
  4. For all Japan/North Korea articles use: [[Sea of Japan]] (East Sea of Korea)
  5. For all Korea and South Korea articles use: [[Sea of Japan]] (East Sea)
  6. For all North Korea articles use: [[Sea of Japan]] (East Sea of Korea)

Per the conditions of the vote, use (East Sea) only once at the first mention.

so, Sea of Japan (East Sea) is right.

admin, you must check first WP:NVPanelequal3 09:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

This is an international article. Hence Sea of Japan. -- Chris 73 | Talk 09:59, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photo use

I want to use a photo of yours on a protest sign. The photo says, "u can use this image freely for any purpose, including commercial use, provided that you license it under one of the above licenses. My suggestion is to use the following text: This Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons image is from the user Chris 73 and is freely available at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Whale_meat_on_dish.jpg under the creative commons cc-by-sa 2.5 license." What does this mean? It seems to mean I have to put these words on the photo, which is about the same as saying I can't use the photo as a photo. Is this correct? I'm not trying to license the phote. I tried to understand GNU Free Document License but it does not seem to apply to photos. The Creative Commons seems to be about commercial use only. I looked for this information on Wikipedia but could not find it. Thanks for the help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.225.2.17 (talk) 05:43, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

What or how do you want to use the photo? The text usually goes e.g. in the subtitle or the credits, but this depends on how the photo is used. The CC license in this case also allows for commercial use (otherwise it would say "NC" for non-commercial) -- Chris 73 | Talk 09:39, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
I want to use it on a save the whales protest sign. Not an article, or caption, or subtitled movie, or with credits, it's a protest sign-I wouldn't have to protest if whales or the poor or the innocent had voices and words. The point of a photograph at times is to convey 1000 different words-which this photo does. If I add text people will ignore the image and focus on the words. Watch people at an art gallery or a museum some time-they spend more time on the words and lose the image. Is it possible to use this image as an image, without words?
Technically, you would have to have a small print at the bottom of the poster with the credits. That does not have to be on the photo. You could also put it on the back of the poster. However, realistically, I don't think anybody would mind or care about the particular license. I added the license so others don't use the images commercially without continuing to share the photo, and have no problem with you using it on the poster. So go ahead and just use the picture. BTW, which pic are you interested in? -- Chris 73 | Talk 08:35, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
Thank you, your permission is sufficient. No one would mind or even notice except for me as I'm an artist and you might for the same reason. The whale meat. It's linked above.
You're welcome. Also, if you're interested - the whale meat tasted really bad. All the white stuff is fat and grease from the blubber, and only the red part is actually meat, and even that was not very nice. I have no interest in eating that stuff ever again. Best wishes, -- Chris 73 | Talk 12:26, 1 December 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Sandbox

RE: This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Template:Welcome-personal, you will be blocked from editing. Chris 73 | Talk 20:03, 27 December 2007 (UTC) : The edit appears to have been erroneous since I was directed there as a link to the sandbox. Hence why someone else had also made an edit on there, which was also deleted. It was a vandalism edit, as you can see, simply placed there under the impression I was on the Sandbox page.

[edit] Photo Use

Hello,

I am the general editor of the Zondervan Illustrated Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament, a five volume academic reference series on the backgrounds to the Bible. One of my responsibilities is to gather photos for the project. I encountered your photo on Wikimedia Commons "Snake Goddess Crete" and even though it is licensed under Creative Commons cc-by-sa 2.5, my publisher would like me to request your written permission to use it in my book outside the restrictions of that licensing. I would need non-exclusive world rights in all languages for both print and digital formats. You will be given credit in the work for your photo as Chris 73 unless you would like the credit to read differently. Thank you. John H. Walton —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jkwalton5 (talk • contribs) 03:56, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I would prefer to keep the license as is. The only difference for you is that in the credits you would have to mention the CC-BY-SA license. This license allows free commercial use, so it does not cost you any more, you only have to add a few words to the credit. Maybe your publisher misunderstood the license term, please check. Cheers, -- Chris 73 | Talk 07:23, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Permission request for photo

I am currently preparing a textbook on Judaism to be published commercially by Routledge, and would like to incorporate the photo of the Speyer mikveh found at <http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/40/Judenbad_Speyer_6_View_from_the_first_room_down.jpg>. Notwithstanding the disclaimer accompanying the graphic, my editors have requested that I contact you for explicit permission--as well as any other instructions you might have about how to credit the picture (and to be honest, it is not at all clear to me what your relationship is to the photo).

Thanks for your assistance,

Hi. The photo is a photo of mine. You can use it for the textbook free of charge, provided you give credits as indicated on the image page, I.e. the attribution to Wikipedia, and that the image is licensed under the creative commons license.

Hi Chris. I just found your photos of Danjuro, Ebizo, and other current kabuki stars, over on the Commons.

Cool, I will try that but I doubt anyone will understand it since the script is in old Japanese.

I am leaving my job soon and need to make sure that I have covered all bases. If not, can we figure out something else?

[edit] Image:Model of historical imperial palace in Edo.jpg

hi there Chris 73,

I stumbled across this image of yours on the Commons [7]. Where did you see this model? And are you sure that it's the "imperial palace of Edo", or is it rather the "shogun's palace in Edo"? 1845 the Shogun was still in power. Hope to hear from you, domou.. Gryffindor 01:55, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Omon-logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Omon-logo.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 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. Project FMF (talk) 03:30, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the photos, the fr:Projet:Lyon had recategorised all so you could see the result on commons. ;) Otourly (talk) 21:18, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Photo vom Valenciasee

Hallo, Chris. Zuerst vielen Dank für Deine Arbeit. Ich würde gern wissen, ob Du das Photo vom Valenciasee in Commons umdrehen kannst? Der Süden steht hier oben. Ich könnte das zwar selbst umdrehen, ich weiss aber nicht, welche Rechte man dann angeben muss (es ist nicht open source, nicht eigenes Werk, etc). Vielen Dank! --Periergeia (talk) 11:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:17th_Lancers_badge.jpg

I have tagged Image:17th_Lancers_badge.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Some examples can be found at Wikipedia:Use rationale examples. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free. Thank you. Project FMF (talk) 13:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Gon, the Little Fox

In analysis part of the page you refered to Gon's mother. But like Q-bay pointed out in the talk page, in Niimi's original story there told nothing about his mother. Would you rewrite that part? --Ypacaraí (talk) 02:26, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
