Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. What is the copyright status of that Donna DeLory photo? Do you have permission to use it? Is it public domain or fair use? RickK 06:10, Jul 30, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Three requests

Hi. three requests:

  1. Be specific about the license or license assumptions under which you are uploading an image. It is not acceptable to upload an image without understanding its copyright information; it just makes it harder on people who use the images later. If your Madonna pictures are being used under fair use, please add {{fairuse}} to the image descriptions after uploading.
  2. Don't upload BMP files to the Wikipedia. They waste disk space and take a long time to download. The PNG image format was invented to supercede them; please convert your images to PNGs before adding them.
  3. I don't think the Unreleased Madonna Songs article needs so many images. Once you've decided which ones are relevant (you may decide that they are all relevant, of course), please put {{ifd}} on the description pages for the rest and list each of them on Wikipedia:Images for deletion.

Feel free to edit my talk page if you have any other questions, or if you disagree with some of my sentiments. --Ardonik 20:38, 2004 Aug 5 (UTC)20:35, 2004 Aug 5 (UTC)

  • I should point out that for photographic images, JPEG is almost always a better choice than PNG (but both are better than BMP.) --Ardonik 20:37, 2004 Aug 5 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Nick Scotti Promotional Picture 1993.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Nick Scotti Promotional Picture 1993.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

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

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 13:18, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
