[edit] Image:Karkemish 1.jpg

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Karkemish_1.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Prince Kassad 07:54, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Hello,
Thanks for telling me. Please leave me about 1 month (I remove the tag) to ask to the copyright holder if he is OK to put the picture under the GFDL/CC licences. Thanks in advance. Poppypetty 07:57, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image: Wikipedia_Malay.JPG

You have recently listed this image which I uploaded for deletion. I have to say that there is no basis to your claim. The Harry Potter cover shown is not the main subject of the screen shot. This image is a screen shot of the Malay Wikipedia. It clearly implies that that is that. Should there be claims that the Harry Potter cover is not a free image, the Harry Potter cover image uploaded at the Malay Wikipedia should be deleted instead of this screen shot.Horacenew (talk) 16:04, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Your reason applies to personality rights, but we're talking about copyright here, where it doesn't matter whether the copyrighted part is the main subject or not - if one part is copyrighted, the whole image is.
Also, of course the Harry Potter cover is copyrighted - copyright is granted to every object without registration or notice, and Rowling has not released the cover under a free license as far as I know. -- Prince Kassad (talk) 16:08, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pointless redirs

I was just wondering, how do you search for/find those useless redirects containing control characters and the like? [Good job on that, by the way!] I was wondering if I could help find them. Thanks! RichardΩ612 Ɣ |ɸ 13:05, May 11, 2008 (UTC)

I go to Special:Allpages and list all pages starting from the Armenian letter Ա (logged out and with IE which conveniently shows all special characters in the adress bar). That's where the hunting ground begins, I use my eye and look for suspicious redirects, dotted circles (indicating a misspelling in Indic names) and the like. You can't believe just how many useless redirects are hidden there. -- Prince Kassad (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Something that might just make your day! A proposal to speedy these kinds of things without days of pointless prebaricating. Your input would be appreciated. RichardΩ612 Ɣ |ɸ 14:33, May 11, 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:ArabicWikipedia 20071124.png}

Thank you for uploading Image:ArabicWikipedia 20071124.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
