[edit] Image source problem with Image:TY Peter 1997.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:TY Peter 1997.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 05:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Cyclonebiskit, it would be a great help if you could link directly to the url where you are getting your images from. Someone else might want to know exactly where something like Image:Tornado Reports 2005-2008.png came from. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 05:50, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tornado intensities

When they were on NWS information statements and local storm reports, I wrote them down and stored them personally. You'd need to do a LOT of research to find them (and even then, the numbers are probably not complete), and of course, they are just preliminary until the Storm Data is released (it is completed to December 2007 as of now, so later in the spring we should have the information for the early season tornadoes and outbreaks). If such a page is created, it should be primarily in list format, and for those with separate articles, a link should be provided beneath the page.

Storm Data will help out once released - but one thing to be careful is that they are listed in the database multiple times if they crossed county lines (as opposed to only once on article pages). CrazyC83 (talk) 18:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] just for later..

[edit] Image:Windsor, Colorado Tornado 5-22-08.jpg

This image says that it was taken by a sheriff, which is a member of local government and not federal government. I will tag it for deletion because it is likely not public domain. -RunningOnBrains 22:17, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
