Thanks for uploading Image:NewtComputer.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you have questions about copyright tagging of images, post on Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags or User talk:Carnildo/images. 11:46, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Fair use images

Hi. I note that you have a number of fair use images on your user page. Please note that such images may not be used on user pages, only in articles within the Wikipedia "main space" - please could you remove these? Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, CLW 23:13, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Red Alien. Since you are the creator of Image:William Kresse.jpg, do you think you could upload the original image? It is always better to have the source image for any future modifications or uses. Also, having the image in color would be more encyclopedic; why strip out color information from the image? You can overwrite Image:William Kresse.jpg by uploading the original with the same name. Thanks! ~MDD4696 16:59, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter, Issue 4, August 2006

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter
Issue 004 – August 2006

Issue of the Month

Despite it being the lead news article of last month, there is still help required in the assessing of articles and the migrating of comments. Lar is willing to provide assistance to those unsure how to do this.

Beatles News
  • The Beatles in the news. Suggestions: [1] [2]
Project News
  • The Beatles article, the "Flagship" of the Project, is currently under review with regard to its Featured Article status. It is hoped that the review will identify those areas that need some(/lots of) remedial work, and that the Project participants and those editors who are involved in the the FA admin pages to can work together to "save" the status of the article.
    • At the moment there is some discussion as to why it has been listed, and what may be needed to help it retain its FA status. It may well be that some work is going to be required in formulating a plan of action, and then some more in achieving those aims.
    • The FA status is obviously quite important to the Project, and it would be appreciated if participants are able to provide assistance in keeping the article up to standard. The editors would be grateful if those persons receiving this Newsletter could spare some of their time, energy and brainpower in keeping this jewel in our crown in its proper place. Please go to Wikipedia:Featured article review/The Beatles and get involved! Thank you.
