If you have anything to say to me about articles I've created or heavily edited/contributed to, or images, or anything else uploaded or typed by me (i.e., you're a living, breathing being, and not a bot), it would be best to use the link to contact me, and NOT leave a message here. I'm on far too rarely to check.

== You have a fan! ==

I reverted an edit to your user page from a user who is such a fan that he emulates you in name. I don't know if this constitutes a violation of the user name policies but you may want to institute an indefinite block on the username if the vandalism continues. Regards [[User:LittleOldMe|LittleOldMe]] 17:27, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

== [[:Image:SRead Splashscreen.jpg]] ==

Do you have any more information to add to the fair use template I added? I wanted to ask because the copyright template says that the uploader should do it, and you uploaded the original. Also, is there a more current version? We use the Renaissance Place version, so I don't know what the desktop version looks like any more. Maybe we should use the RP version screenshot? &mdash; [[User:Chris53516|Chris53516]] <sup>([[User talk:Chris53516|Talk]])</sup> 15:45, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

==Immortal Beloved==
Hello JohnDBuell. I saw your edit summary on the Chicago Symphony page and I thought I would drop you a line to let you know that it was the London Symphony that was conducted by Georg Solti for the above mentioned film. You can check out the soundtrack listing at IMDb or Amazon. I hope that this saves you a little time and cheers.[[User:MarnetteD|MarnetteD]] | [[User talk:MarnetteD|Talk]] 14:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

==Fair use rationale for [[:Image:Advance_to_Boardwalk_box_lid.jpg]]==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|70px|left]]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:Image:Advance_to_Boardwalk_box_lid.jpg]]'''. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline|explanation or rationale]] as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|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 [[WP:FURG|here]].

Please go to [[:Image:Advance_to_Boardwalk_box_lid.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline |fair use rationale]]. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to insure 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 "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

== Replaceable fair use Image:DNA with H2G2 towel.JPG ==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|32px|left|Replaceable fair use]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:DNA with H2G2 towel.JPG]]'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our [[Wikipedia:Fair use criteria|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 [[:Image:DNA with H2G2 towel.JPG|the image description page]] and edit it to add {{tlx|di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''.
# On [[Image talk:DNA with H2G2 towel.JPG|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, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|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 <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target={{PAGENAMEE}}&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our [[WP:FUC|Fair Use policy]].

==Image tagging for Image:Hitchhikerposter.jpg==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Hitchhikerposter.jpg]]'''. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

==Image copyright problem==
Thanks for your uploads. You've indicated that the following images are being used under a claim of [[WP:NFC|fair use]], but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why they meet [[WP:NFCC|Wikipedia's requirements for such images]]. In particular, for each page an image is used on, the image must have an [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|explanation]] linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

:* That there is a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|non-free use rationale]] on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
:* That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

My user and talk page policies

I have noted that a few other Wikipedians have started posting such disclaimers, and I feel that I must as well, as my user page and talk page have been vandalized at various times.

  1. Vandalism will be reverted on sight. Period.
  2. Personal attacks will not be tolerated and will be reported on sight. Period.
  3. Defamatory statements will be removed AND reported on sight. Period.

I have read over MANY of the primary Wikipedia policies, and I do ask that other editors do the same, even newbies. I CAN AND WILL UPHOLD THEM.

If you have anything to say to me about articles I've created or heavily edited/contributed to, or images, or anything else uploaded or typed by me (i.e., you're a living, breathing being, and not a bot), it would be best to use the link to contact me, and NOT leave a message here. I'm on far too rarely to check.
