Image copyright tags[edit]

This page should be merge with Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags. They both contain a slightly different amount of tags, but most are duplicates. Why should we maintain two different versions of this page? This is why it needs to be merged. --michael180 21:38, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)

Image copyright tags contains descriptions about when to use a given template. This one contains just a list and rendering of each template. They seem to me to serve different purposes. --Fastfission 16:24, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

CSD[edit]

Can someone take this page off of CAT:CSD? I am not sure how to do it. Maybe someone could subst the templates and take the category out that way.--Adam ^(talk) 13:21, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I found out how to do it.--Adam

Red Links[edit]

Please redirect the red links of the 2nd template from the top regarding orphans to the Wikipedia:Dummy Link. Thanks, I don't know how to do it.

Category:Candidates for speedy deletion[edit]

This page is showing up on that catergory again. Is there a way to remove this page from showing up there? —Whomp t/c 16:36, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Book title page?[edit]

In the case of a hardcover book that did not have any cover image, could the book cover tag be applied to an image of a book's title page? Or is something else needed for that? Шизомби 16:11, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Obsolete/Superseded/Vector Version available[edit]

This page contains templates used in marking images for cleanup (e.g. Template:ShouldBeSVG, Template:BadJPEG, etc.) but not those templates used after these cleanup functions have been performed:

I recommend adding them for the sake of completeness. MithrandirMage 15:53, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- Quiddity (talk) 19:38, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What a mess[edit]

This page needs serious clean-up. Mostly the changes need to be made directly to the templates... too bad I'm not an admin. Rocket000 10:40, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Informing users not to remove deletion notices from images[edit]

Is there a template I can use on a user's talk page to inform them of the guidelines around removing deletion notices on images? I can't find one. Thanks. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 08:29, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The templates {{Uw-delete1}}, {{Uw-delete2}}, {{Uw-delete3}}, and {{Uw-delete4}} seem to be the accepted templates for this particular problem. Kelly ^hi! 13:15, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'm surprised there isn't one specifically for this. I'm by no means a wikiveteran but it seems to be quite a common problem. Is there a place to go to suggest new templates? ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 13:44, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! WP:UW would probably be a good place to start. Kelly ^hi! 14:06, 24 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the Rename Suggested Tag?[edit]

The tag {{ifr}}, which is a general cleanup notice for images/other objects that need to be renamed, seems to be missing from this page. Is this just an oversight or is that template unofficial/listed somewhere else? Chazchaz101 (talk) 05:47, 10 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Currently redirects to {{rename media}}, which someone added. -- Quiddity (talk) 19:38, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Inline templates[edit]

Are there any inline image maintenance templates that can be placed beside the caption text in the article? For example, something along the lines of ^{image may be inaccurate}? -- œ ^™ 19:46, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
