Image:Ryanklesko.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Ryanklesko.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Chowbok ☠ 19:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jenna Jameson and Jay Grdina[edit]

First, they're still married until the divorce is finalized. Second, even when they get divorced, the picture of them in the Jenna Jameson article will still be of them as husband and wife, and the caption won't change. The caption doesn't describe him, the caption describes the picture. AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 13:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we can write "then-husband" or something, I guess, but it's clumsy. Here's a Wikipedia: Featured article, Gerald Ford#Accession picture caption: "Vice President Ford is sworn in as the 38th President of the United States" - he's not the Vice President any more, but was at the time. Gerald Ford#Foreign policy "Ford meets with Soviet Union leader Leonid Brezhnev" - he's not the SU leader any more. Wikipedia:Captions doesn't specify, but does point to http://www.poynter.org/content/content_view.asp?id=4355 which says we should use the present tense, and the specific example "Mayor David Dinkins, 1993" - it was posted in 2000, so he's not mayor any more. Do you think there's a Wikipedia style guideline somewhere we can refer to? AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 00:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Mikematheny.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Mikematheny.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Carlos Zambrano[edit]

Feel free to leave more suggestions at Wikipedia:Peer review/Carlos Zambrano/archive1. I didn't write the article, but I'm trying to get some 'proper' suggestions on how to clean it up. -- ShadowJester07 ►Talk 07:22, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Fredlewis.jpg[edit]

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Fredlewis.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy.

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
