That image is tagged as being superseded and more importantly is not protected, while the image that supersedes it, [[:Image:Information icon.svg]], is protected.

== Table of linked license tags == |
|||
I suggest adding this table to the "own work" upload page: |
|||
{| class="wikitable" |
|||
|- |
|||
! License tags used in selector menu.<br> |
|||
In the same order as the menu. |
|||
|- |
|||
|<nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Self|self]] <nowiki>|</nowiki>[[Template:cc-by-sa-3.0|cc-by-sa-3.0]]<nowiki>|</nowiki> [[Template:GFDL|GFDL]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki> |
|||
|- |
|||
|<nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Self|self]] <nowiki>|</nowiki>[[Template:cc-by-sa-3.0,2.5,2.0,1.0|cc-by-sa-3.0,2.5,2.0,1.0]] <nowiki>|</nowiki>[[Template:GFDL|GFDL]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki> |
|||

|||

|||
|- |
|||
| |
|||
''One of the above tags can be copied directly''<br> |
|||
''into an image page during initial image''<br> |
|||
''uploading, or later to correct mistakes.''<br> |
|||
''Hover over an entry in the selector menu to''<br> |
|||
''see the license tag wikicode for that entry.''<br> |
|||
''To see what each tag produces click its''<br> |

''entry in the dropdown selector menu. The''<br> |
|||
''license box will show up below the menu.'' |
|||
|} |
|||
Users are uploading images, and then realizing they used the wrong tag. I have discussed this with a user recently. They were completely baffled as to how to repair their mistake. For more info see: |
|||
*[[commons:MediaWiki talk:Licenses#Newbie uploading problem]] |
|||
They could not find the tags used by the selector menu. So they could not go back and fix their mistake. I could not find the tags at first either. |
|||
This table solves the problem. In addition it links directly to the relevant tag pages for more info. Other info pages cover too many tags to be of much help. Especially for someone in a hurry. People are just picking tags at random now from the selector menu in many cases because they don't have a clue what the tags mean. The info in the improved selector menu is better, but it is still mostly jargon to most people. |
|||
This table is bound to interest uploaders who see this table and want quick answers. Not everybody wants to be image uploading geeks like us, and spend hours searching in vain for explanations. --[[User:Timeshifter|Timeshifter]] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 10:59, 3 February 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:For the record, I do not like this idea. I've thought about it and I would recommend putting a link named "Help! I made a mistake" on [[Wikipedia:Upload]] instead. That way, we wouldn't have to have separate boxes for each upload form, we could just explain how to edit image pages and link to [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|the list of image copyright tags]]. —[[User:Remember the dot|Remember the dot]] <sup>([[User talk:Remember the dot|talk]])</sup> 23:49, 3 February 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::[[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags]] is not much help, and sending people off the "own work" upload page to [[Wikipedia:Upload]] to find another help page is just confusing. I have made several suggestions on how we can more clearly explain uploading, and you seem dead set against nearly all my ideas. Unless you can give some reasons other than [[WP:IDONTLIKEIT]] for not explaining uploading better on the "own work" upload page, then people should ignore you in my opinion. |
|||
::The wikicode for "own work" copyright tags is key to uploading one's own images, and for correcting those image pages. Newbies have pointed out that sending them to multiple pages to get help is not very useful. They have asked me and others for better instructions on the "own work" upload page. |

Flexible is good. It would be even more flexible to use one of the above tables on this "my own work" upload page, too.--[[User:Timeshifter|Timeshifter]] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 18:47, 11 February 2008 (UTC) |

:::I wasn't clear. I don't have a problem with a "Help! I did something wrong!" link on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uselang=en-ownwork&wpUploadDescription={{Information%0A|Description=%0A|Source=self-made%0A|Date=%0A|Location=%0A|Author=%7E%7E%7E%0A|Permission=%0A|other_versions=%0A}} "my own work" upload page]. I think it would be a good idea. Now that you are an admin, you can add that link. I just think it would also be flexible to include the table of tags on the upload page. People may not have done anything wrong. They may just want to batch paste the info into the own work upload form. Or they may just want to understand the main tags better. --[[User:Timeshifter|Timeshifter]] ([[User talk:Timeshifter|talk]]) 21:28, 15 February 2008 (UTC) |

Coshell coconut charcoal is made from coconuts, not wood. It produces a cleaner and better tasting flavor and results in less ash. This product does not contain harmful ingredients such as char dust, saw dust and limestone. It also does not contain petroleum and it doesn't have that ammonia like smell. No trees were cut down to make Coshell charcoal.For more information, please contact us at 212-563 7113. |
