Thanks for uploading Image:NS HWY 201.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Hi Verne, I was reading the article on Peak Oil - which is excellent and followed the link to global warming and was very surprised that that article did not refer to peak oil at least in passing.
I've added a section with some basic facts effectively inviting readers of global warming to visit peak oil to find out more. I don't know why some of the global warming evangelists are being so upetty about it, but I'd welcome some support 88.110.38.52 22:13, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:S&Ytvweek.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.

Good to see an article on The Bells (group) finally appear. I did consider creating it a couple of weeks ago, but then I forgot about it. "Stay Awhile" was my favorite song back when it came out. Dzubint 15:48, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

I've nominated Esmée Denters, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Esmée Denters satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also " What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Esmée Denters and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Esmée Denters during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. RJASE1 Talk 08:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that you have removed the stub tags from a number of philatelic articles like, Aerogram, Basel Dove and Collectors Club of New York. Why would you think these are no longer stubs when they are rather short and still need fleshing out? I think the stub is appropriate for the amount of information they currently contain. Cheers ww2censor 23:50, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
I will leave it out until I find a ref to the domestic use situation in the UK. I'm sure you will be happy with that. Cheers ww2censor 02:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your compliment re: my work on Tovah Feldshuh . . . I really appreciate your taking the time to write. P.S. Better late than never - welcome to Wikipedia! SFTVLGUY2 13:53, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
When I compared the Eames Lounge Chair to the Morris Chair, I meant it in the sense that they are the both the sort of classic lounge-type chair of their period, both in style, comfort, and massiveness. But, if you think that this is too much opinion, I'll gladly edit it out, as, though I know I've read it, I can't recall sources. Christopher Busta-Peck | Talk 17:43, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
I've responded to the claim you made on this page, which I believe to be incorrect. Perhaps I did not understand you? Also, I hope you don't mind that I moved your coment to the bottom.- Rustavo Talk/ Contribs 01:09, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:AshleyMontague.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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. MER-C 10:36, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
I have tagged Image:BabeRuth.jpg as {{ no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale.

Please also consider using {{ non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. DieInquisitor 21:43, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from
an automated bot. A tag has been placed on
Humber Valley Resort, by
Pharmboy (
talk ·
contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be
speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because
Humber Valley Resort is blatant
advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting
Humber Valley Resort, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at
WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the
bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --

The tables do make for easier reading, but have you considered what should be in the entries? For example, the British SOE was not principally an espionage organization, but an unconventional warfare/guerilla support, and Direct Action, force. Some other works, such as Kahn's The Codebreakers, do include espionage communications, but espionage isn't their main thrust.
I assume that a table can't pick up footnotes, correct? Is there a general Wikipedia policy on reading lists of material that aren't actual references in the article? I was under the impression this was somewhat discouraged. Howard C. Berkowitz ( talk) 20:41, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading Image:EdinburghWaterfront.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI ( talk) 04:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:SaintJohnRegionalHospital.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. -- ImageTaggingBot ( talk) 03:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
