Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:RAshtray.JPG

Thank you for uploading Image:RAshtray.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia 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 under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:48, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Knef Halt mich fest.JPG

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Knef Halt mich fest.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:06, 11 October 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —An gr 18:06, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Knatterton.jpg

Unhelpfully the image police are pretty much insisting all rationale have to be loaded with their templates. I can somewhat sympathise but it is somewhat galling when all the information is there and all it needs is reformatting. :: Kevinalewis : ^{(Talk Page)}/_(Desk) 18:59, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

School Days and This Sweet Sickness

Regarding my re-write of the synopsis for the articles you mentioned, I felt that many users might prefer a short, concise outline of the story instead of a long and turgid analysis. As for the lack of an edit summary, I have had trouble remembering those in the past (as you'll see from one of the above messages on this page); I really am sorry if my forgetfulness there caused any big problems, I promise I'll try harder! I've removed the ellipses you mentioned, I guess there just a side effect of my own pretentious nature (I try and make every single sentence seem artistic, sometimes to the detriment of my mental health!). Finally, I changed the article rating because I thought it needed serious improvement, although my partialness to the work probably did play a part in my decision.

Anyways, I hope I answered all your questions and didn't cause too much bother! --Heslopian (talk) 22:19, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

I do hope I haven't annoyed you too much, I assure you I also have no intention of engaging in an edit war. If you think my re-writes are really that problematic I'll revert them in an instant, and I apologise if you feel I've ruined your hard work in any way. I just thought that people with an interest in the topic could learn something about it without having any potential surprises ruined for them.

Also, I did seem to be mistaken about the purpose of the article rating; of course I shan't argue that Robert B. Parker belongs on the same pedestal as Jane Austen and Leo Tolstoy! Best wishes, --Heslopian (talk) 01:37, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi KF, I have listed File:JHodgins2.jpg for deletion at Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2009 May 25#JHodgins2.jpg because non-free images of living people are generally not permitted.

Mary Queen of Scots

Thank you so much for cleaning up this article, removing so much vandalism and re-instating the original sense! I am having an eye on this article, having edited some passages, but I kind of lost track, vandalism taking over.

Hi KF,

There's no fair use rationale given for this image, and free images of Klestil exist. I've replaced the image with a free alternative. Although it isn't as clear an image, I think it's good enough to remove the need for the non-free media. Papa November (talk) 11:28, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
