Fair use rationales

Fair use rationale for Image:Arrival_(Mike_Oldfield).jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Arrival_(Mike_Oldfield).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 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 criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 10:15, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I have tagged Image:Blue_Peter_(Mike_Oldfield).jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. 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. ShakespeareFan00 10:16, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Images

I am adding these images to the relevant singles articles which exist about them. One example is Arrival (song). I was under the impression that artwork such as this is acceptable, when there is already an article for it. TubularWorld 10:19, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but you need to provide an IN DEPTH rationale as to why the use of a copyrighted album cover is acceptable. You might

want to see what other uploaders have used. ShakespeareFan00 10:21, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok.... give me an example...

I do not see how my F-U-R is any worse than a random album piece of artwork which i have looked up on wikipedia. "Cover of Bon Jovi's self-titled album" on Image:Bon Jovi Album.jpg . TubularWorld 10:24, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Image:Avoid_One_Thing.gif is a good example of how to do it :) ShakespeareFan00 10:26, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thak you for uploading Image:Don't Get Done, Get Dom titles.jpg, however there is a minor problem with the image summary, it would be appreciated if you could add details of the source media (DVD/film/Video) from which it was captured such as title,volume code, distributor, along with the time code of the relevant frame (if available), Thanks.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Emerald Energy Logo.png)=

Thanks for uploading Image:Emerald Energy Logo.png. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 00:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

cApitalisation iN tiTles

My comment has two parts:

Why I Capitalize Titles, and Spell Capitalize with a Zed

It's the way I was taught.

Why you do not capitalize titles

Please reply. I know why you spell "capitalize" with an ess, it's the way you were taught :-) I didn't revert the change at Pamela's page as it seems a small thing. Pete St.John 17:49, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

good answer (at my Talk): the manual of style doesn't capitalize words in section titles, except the first. I had never noticed. Apparently the sense is that these are not so much titles (implying 'naming' an item) as sentences defining links (implying 'description'). I probably will continue capitalizing when I'm thinking "title" but will at least be more aware of the countervailing trend, thanks. Pete St.John 21:03, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Bon Jovi and Def Leppard

Very interesting indeed -we appear to like the same bands!!!!! I have seen both bands three times each!. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 19:24, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

The Richie Sambora and Jon Bon Jovi images are both mine from the concert in Dublin in May last year ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 19:25, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Both were superb - I love that kind of 80s melodic rock. I'm also into Whitesnake (Vivian used to play guitar with them), Aerosmith and Steelheart. Saw Def Leppard at the Colston Hall in Bristol twice and once in the CIA (Cardiff Indoor Arena). I'd have loved to seen them outdoors such as Wembley. I also wish I could have seen Queen!!!! Keep rockin in the free world!!! - I haven't got Lost Highway yet -to be honest the new song hasn't really touched a chord with me yet but I'm sure there are some good songs on the new album -hopefully Richie will get himself together real soon. Keep up the good work on the songs. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 19:33, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes it was a surprise with Richie -I thought they all had their heads screwed on tightly -but I guess thats what a marriage breakup and pressures of fame combined can do to you. You may want to check out Steelheart at:

♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 19:40, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJvgUrZp5VY&mode=related&search=

is another good un'.

Anyway I won't sidetrack you from your good wiki work any further. All the best! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 19:55, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm pretty amazed the articles Miss You in a Heartbeat and Two Steps Behind didn;t exist as with many of the other classics. I've added to the latter. in my room I have a 100 watt Marshall concert amp with a stereo on top of it so when I play along with the albums it sounds exactly like it!!!! The volume is on like 0.1 and its still very loud!!! I like filling in guitar parts also!!! I have a Fender Stat sky blue -like the one richie plays on keep the faith and a Fender Telecaster Royal Purple. I also have a Gibson Les Paul Sunburst but am saving up for an Ibanez like Steve Vai plays on For the Love of God. But real ones are £2000!!!!! -this will take ages!!!! Also by the side of the amp is my TV and DVD player - where I can play along with the live DVDS -Bon Jovi crush tour is good - I wish the DVD of bon Jovi at Giants Stadium 2001 was available -I consider this as one of the best.

I took for granted those songs had articles. Anyway I'll try to expand them when I can. Keep it up!! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"Expecting you" Contribs} 20:53, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Code.FM

A tag has been placed on Code.FM, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Jauerback 16:16, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Your revert on Northern Rock [1]

Hi, please can you elaborate on your reasoning for this you gave on the editors talkpage -

"I do not believe that it is appropriate, as and I quote "A high court injunction forced Alphaville to remove it""

User_talk:145.246.240.14#Your_edits_to_Northern_Rock

given that WP lays down clear guidelines on what isn't appropriate and UK injunctions have no authority outside of that territory and thus do not apply to WP. To keep the conversation in one place, if the original editor joins in, I'd prefer it if you answered on here. Thanks -- John (Daytona2 · talk) 19:03, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

If you think it should stay, go ahead and re-add it. But my only reason for removing it was, that I have a lot of respect for the UK legal system. Tbh, if the UK courts have their reasons for doing things, it's usually fine by me. TubularWorld 01:37, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for you reply TW, I can't re-add as I'd likely be committing a contempt of court for aiding a breach, but I see the OE has done so in any case. Although you should obviously take heed of the law relating to you, it doesn't mean that you can remove content as long as it complies with Florida law (where WP is hosted/based) and WP guidelines eg WP:LIBEL.

That's the generality of how WP works, but as far as the NR issue is concerned, the suppression of the information on future profits (earnings) since the recourse to emergency funding, is regarded by myself and others as a manifest breach of the UK Listing Authority (UKLA) rules, which require full disclosure to create a level playing field for all investors, and as such has created a false market in the shares which means that some investors are disadvantaged in comparison to others. This situation is not unique to NR, it affects all UK banks. This has created a lack of trust, which has manifested itself in the continuation of the credit crunch. It's heading towards being a lesson in precisely how not to handle a banking problem. It's not practical, nor is it realistic to believe that such problems can remain covered up.

In the circumstances, as a respected international source of unbiased information, the FT has acted with probity in it's efforts to allow all investors access to the latest information. Cheers -- John (Daytona2 · talk) 13:42, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Article deletions

Zavvi store locations

I agreed with the deletion of this directory of stores.TubularWorld (talk) 20:27, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Zavvi store locations, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page.

Notability of Newcastle University Halls of Residence

A tag has been placed on Newcastle University Halls of Residence requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. — mholland (talk) 18:33, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

This was dispute was resolved, by an admin, as it is a notable article.TubularWorld (talk) 20:27, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for Wanadoo Edition and Microids articles

Hi, My name is Jacques Chatenet. I was Test Director by Index+, Wanadoo Edition and Microids. Just to thank you for such good articles about my previous companies (I am now by Ubisoft Shanghai). By the way, what your interest for such companies? Thanks Jacques—Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.213.244.187 (talk • contribs) 09:14, 1 December 2007

Thanks, it's nice to feel that my work on Wikipedia is appreciated. To be honest a lot of the content on Index+ and Wanadoo Edition was already put on Wikipedia by someone else, I've just tidied it up since. My only real interest in the companies is that over the years I've enjoyed playing many of their games.

By the way, do you know the full story about the 2005 Ubisoft-Microids deal? (See [2]). Did any part of the deal actually go through? Just because the information on the internet which I have been able to find is split on the subject. Thanks, TubularWorld 11:41, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
