Image:Naomi robson, melbourne promo.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Naomi robson, melbourne promo.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our 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:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On 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, 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 this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Rossrs 08:36, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You said - "The Naomi Robson pic is a screenshot that was on Melbourne TV saying "Thanks for watching Melbourne's Channel Seven".

I don't see why it should be deleted.. it's just a screenshot. --Jamesbehave 09:24, 28 November 2006 (UTC)"[reply]

Hi James. I understand that the screenshot is just that, and that it's widely seen but the problem is that it's subject to copyright. That means that we have to be careful about how we use it as one of the main aims of Wikipedia is to try to use free content as much as possible and to use unfree, copyrighted content only when it's essential. In the case of Naomi Robson, it's possible that someone could obtain a free photograph of her, so with that in mind, using an unfree image goes against our policy. It's nothing personal, but as these images are noticed by other editors they are tagged so that other editors can look at them and determine if they agree that it is fair to use them or not. Maybe reading through Wikipedia:Copyright and Wikipedia:Fair use will help make it clearer. Cheers Rossrs 13:20, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Priceisrightauslarry.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Priceisrightauslarry.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Longhair\talk 03:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Dealandrewo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Dealandrewo.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.
