Commercial use of Image:Anthos.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Anthos.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Anthos.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:Anthos.jpg itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. If you have any questions about what to do next or why your image was nominated for speedy deletion please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thanks. --Android Mouse Bot 2 00:03, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption

I would highly suggest asking my friend User:Vert et Noir about adoption. He knows at least as much as me about the nuances of Wikipedia, and doesn't have a current adoptee. I must admit I've somewhat neglected my current adoptee, and that's something I'd like to rectify before I consider taking on anyone new.

Your first lesson: Whenever you leave a comment on any talk page, User or Article, sign your comment with four tildes like this: ~~~~. That'll put a little signature on the end, to let people know who's saying what. Vert et Noirtalk 08:21, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now, to the point. I've never adopted anyone before, but I would love to adopt you. We'll talk more soon, I have to run. Vert et Noirtalk 08:21, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Right. So first: The Adoption project suggests adding {{Adoptee|Vert et Noir}} to your user page. I don't mind if you don't, it's just a suggestion, and lets them know what's going on. I have a corresponding one on my user page.

Second: Let's start out with some history. Let's see where we are. I'd like to know how long you've been active on Wikipedia, what you've been up to (not in a creepy government way, just to get an idea of how I can help you, and how far along you are. I'd also love to know if there's anything particular that's blaring out at you, like man, I have to learn this, or something. If not, that's cool too. I'll start.

If you check my user contributions, you can see I've been active since February of this year. But I've been contributing as an unregistered user, and on friends' accounts for two or three years now. As you might be able to tell by my userpage, and hell my name, I'm mostly interested in Anarchism, and I'm hoping to start working more on the Green Anarchism page. I've found working on a page is a hell of a way to learn more about the subject. I also try to keep an eye on the Veganism article, but it's so complex, so many issues, it's hard to break your way in. I also do a lot of rather random edits. And that's about where I stand. I've been involved in a number of disputes, and know most of the ropes involved in them. Vert et Noirtalk 05:35, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Vandalism on WikiProject Italy

Beats me — the history log shows that you're the one who undid your own edit. —Ryan McDaniel 16:44, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption--Abeg92

Sorry, but I can't adopt you right now, because I don't really feel I have the time. Anyway, good luck in your future Wikipedia endeavors! Abeg92contribs 18:33, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image policy

The basic idea behind image policy on Wikipedia, is that since Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia, which anyone can use for any purpose, changed or not, all of our images must be free for any one to use, changed or not. They cannot be copyrighted. There are many different image license templates we use to identify the legal status of each image uploaded to Wikipedia, which you can find at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags.

There is a rare exception to this rule. Sometimes, an image will not be available for an article which is free. If one cannot find a free image to use to illustrate an article, one may use a non-free image under very strict conditions, detailed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free. Whenever you upload a non-free image, you must provide a detailed reason for your having to use a non-free image instead of a free one. You must also use a non-free image tag.

For more on images, see Wikipedia:Image use policy. Vert et Noirtalk 04:27, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to go ahead and take a look at the Anarchism in Greece article. Are there any problems you've had with this article? Vert et Noirtalk 04:27, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
