[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Elliott Smith Bust A Move Shirt.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Elliott Smith Bust A Move Shirt.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 21:43, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image tagging for Image:Manvswildpaddle.png

If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Why1.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Why1.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. —— Eagle101Need help? 08:52, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Why
You do not own the copy right to the board game cover. As a result I need to ask you to scale down the size of both of your uploads to thumbnail size. Please see our fair use criteria. Thanks. —— Eagle101Need help? 09:06, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- As I see that you have uploaded a thumb nail image, may I delete the other two? —— Eagle101Need help? 09:16, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- Yes.
- Regardless of whether or not you took the photos the image is not yours. The game cover and the logo are copyrighted to the company that owns it. You are making a claim of fair use that you can use it anyway. The art on that game cover is not yours to re license. —— Eagle101Need help? 09:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- In addition I should let you know that you should not use fair use images for decoration. In other words you should only have to use one or two on an article, if at all. —— Eagle101Need help? 09:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- I would assume the game pieces were also copyrighted, but you can ask here for other opinions. —— Eagle101Need help? 09:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- Probably as a generic fair use rational. Please make sure that your use of these images is inline with the goals of a free encyclopedia. See our policy for more information. —— Eagle101Need help? 09:29, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
