Thank you for uploading File:DragonRealms screenshot.PNG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

A large proportion of your edits are connected with the company and its products. Do you have some special connection with it? Perhaps it would be better to take a look at some articles that aren't Simutronics-related? A.K.Nole (talk) 17:05, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
“ | I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative 'I heard it somewhere' pseudo information is to be tagged with a 'needs a cite' tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced. This is true of all information, but it is particularly true of negative information about living persons. [1] | ” |
There are other places in the rules that say primary sources are allowed on certain cases, provided common sense is used. "Appropriate sourcing can be a complicated issue, and these are general rules. Deciding whether primary, secondary or tertiary sources are more suitable on any given occasion is a matter of common sense and good editorial judgment, and should be discussed on article talk pages." from WP:NOR and "Primary sources, on the other hand, are often difficult to use appropriately. While they can be reliable in many situations, they must be used with caution in order to avoid original research." from WP:RS.
I'm having no luck with third-party sources, I didn't really expect to, doesn't seem like something that would be covered since it deals with policies and practices. If you still don't agree go ahead and put it on a countdown to delete(give it about month or two to find a reliable third party source on the talk:simutronics page, instead of just deleting it right off, to give others a chance of finding something) -- Legeres (talk) 10:52, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
No problem - I just thought your disclaimer might be best separated from the rest of the page. I know some people get annoyed at others editing/tidying their userpages, but everything's undoable, and I've learnt a few snippets of wikicode from tweaks others have made to mine. pablohablo. 05:58, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:DragonRealms screenshot.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 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:35, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
