[edit] License tagging for Image:Dalreen.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dalreen.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 18:05, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Dalreen.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dalreen.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BrownCow • (how now?) 22:30, 7 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Dalreen2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dalreen2.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

[edit] Dalreen article

As I noted in the article's talk page, the text you are trying to use in this article looks like a copyright violation from either [1] or [2] and therefore should not be used here unless you are the original author or the current owner of the copyright. Can you make that assertion? Valrith 21:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Please immediately stop adding copyvio to Dalreen, as your edits are direct copyright infringement violations. You have been asked to stop before - if you continue, you will be blocked for violating Wikipedia policy on copyright infringement. Thank you. Cowman109Talk 21:20, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
