Hi Sefan2 I Noticed that you made contributions to above mention artilce about sales tax in Scandinavian countries. Thanks for you contribution, I also noticed you used a lot of edits for some minor contributions, please consider using the Show preview button also. The short reason is the wikimedia server is storing a copy of each page history, and is taking of a lot of storage space. It is also a good idea to fille in a short summary in the Edit summary box like added a link, fixed a typo or added a new section Again welcome to wikipedia and hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of us.
Best regards Angelbo 15:48, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
I noticed that you put the ((moveto)) template on Naoto Ohshima. There doesn't seem to be any controversy about this move, and the target page, Naoto Ōshima, is open. This means that the page can be easily moved by using the move tab at the top of the page. Is there some reason why the tag was added instead of the page just being moved? Thanks. -- kenb215 04:40, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
I'm not user "Fiskmåsen", so that edit must have been done by someone else sharing the same IP address. The same thing happened a few days ago, mentioning some other user name. I suppose that this is kinda problematic, since my IP address is shared with several hundred other users... (Stefan2 11:38, 13 April 2007 (UTC))
BTW, the blocking a few days ago was mentioned not here, but on my IP address's talk page: [1] (Stefan2 11:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC))
Someone else using the same IP address I suppose... (Stefan2 11:56, 30 April 2007 (UTC))
I think you need to explain a bit more than just adding the tags ([2]&[3]). Tried to find the contradiction, but for me it isn’t that obvious. Could you clarify a bit, so we can resolve it? Thanks. --Van helsing 19:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello Stefan2! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 1,557 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the ((unreferencedBLP)) tag. Here is the article:

Sven Manguard's "Completely Safe" Irradiated Barnstar | ||
Not content with distributing ordinary barnstars, I have illegally enriched several ordinary barnstars, for the purposes of rewarding others for outstanding individual achievement. Congratulations, you have just been awarded one of these rare treasures. They glow in the dark, yes, but I'm sure they are perfectly safe.
Thank you for catching the problem with the Copy to Commons tagging by Fbot. Sven Manguard Wha? 17:15, 13 November 2011 (UTC) |
The source was clearly made, can not help it if USAF changed the 140th home page. I've been around wiki for over 6 years, I know how to source pics, especially military. There are many pics, probably hundreds of military pics with source no longer available, eg. NORAD, Clear AFB, etc etc. I've research broken links many times for other wiki editors and fixed the links instead of marking it for questionable copyright and or speedy delete; you can too, like I have. I'll try to research a new source for this pic... also, I will be driving up that way next month for goose hunting and can take my own personal pic for 137th. Cheers, Lance.....

Perhaps you could assist me with tagging more images on English Wikipedia with this; I have a lot of images listed at commons:User:Magog the Ogre/questionably PD-ineligible content that have equivalents on English Wikipedia under the exact same name. Magog the Ogre (talk) 22:03, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
Also there are a ton of logos at Category:All Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons. I've gotten many of them, but not all. Magog the Ogre (talk) 23:39, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
Yeah that ruling on the Edge logo is going to cause issues. The question is: was it a rogue ruling that should be ignored (like the US 9th circuit court ruling on copyright extending 100 years, a baffling ruling that makes no sense and which everyone does in fact ignore) or is that a legitimate ruling? Magog the Ogre (talk) 00:44, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
Hey sorry about those. Back in 2007, coins didn't trouble the copyright hawks. Pictures of 3D works of art (e.g. statues) were expressly un-copywritable back then, and I still don't think a coin is much more 3-dimensional than your average painting (surely paint layers are often thicker than a coin, and surely a head-on shot of a public domain coin is in no way unique such that artisanship attaches, in my IANAL opinion). But as I explained elsewhere, I no longer recall some 5 years later where they came from. Good luck with your (rather pointless) deletion though :) -- Kendrick7talk 00:13, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
This template is effectively a duplicate of User:Buffs/PD-Only in host country, but with less information. Images of this type are currently the subject of a Request for Comment: Wikipedia_talk:Copyrights#RfC:_What_to_do_with_respect_to_the_copyright_of_countries_with_which_the_US_does_not_have_copyright_relations.3F. I agree with WP:BOLD, but it might be best to hold off on such changes until the RfC is finished. I would like to have your input on the RfC, so please feel free to throw in your two cents. Buffs (talk) 04:17, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
Where did this dispute move to? The information I could find says it was filed in the wrong venue, but doesn't point to the right one. I would like to address the copyright concerns. My intent was to include the image as a single comic book panel under Fair Use. Maybe the resolution needs to be reduced? InnocuousPseudonym (talk) 04:23, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
I notice you have raised doubts about images. I am a new user and not familiar much with the references and tagging on wiki, however, all images on Tatrinote are copyright free. I was born in that area and still have connection with it. I left few comments with your comments on those images as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Riztech (talk • contribs)
Hi Stefan2,
You raised a concern about an image I recently uploaded to the MoneyRates.com page. You said I didn't prove that I have permission to use the site's image. I did seek permission from the site's producer prior to publishing, but how can I prove this in the context of Wikipedia?
Thanks,

I didnt get your reply from my latest comments in the discussion in the possibly unfree files page. We have always had atleast 1 Armenian dance image on wikipedia. I need atleast 1 valid excepted Armenian dance image to upload here. The previous ones were also removed from the site. The image is in a few main Armenian related pages, and I need atleast one valid image. Can you help me out on this? The images.google.com has tons of Armenian dance images here [4], can you find me one to use a PD or CC tag?? Thank you. Frost778 (talk) 02:29, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading an image from flickr with a CC tag, but this dance image is not the specific type that I was hoping for. You notice the one I currently have uploaded? And if you look in google images most of them are in this type of group circle dances. I have contacted someone (owner of armeniapedia.org site) who will soon send you a message in your talk page to give permission to use his Armenian dance images. Also, how do I contact the user at flickr who I currently uploaded the dance image? Do I need to sign up for flickr to contact him? I'm going to get permission from the user at flickr who has this Armenian dance image in case the other user doesnt get it on time or something. Can you allow time for me to get his permission? It might take long I dont know how long, but not too long. Is it possible you can ask permission from the flickr user? Do you have an account there or? Frost778 (talk) 23:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Did you understand my above message? Frost778 (talk) 02:14, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

These are under CC tag owner is Raffi from armeniapedia. Frost778 (talk) 03:38, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
I didnt get your reply yet. I was asking if you can contact the Flickr user to get permission from him to use his image that you have tagged possibly unfree. How do I contact the Flickr user? Do I need to sign up there? Ok, I figured out how to contact the Flickr user, but I have to wait until he replies and hopefully knows how to change it to "some rights reserved." What is your email so he can email you to give permission to use the image? Frost778 (talk) 23:32, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

I actually did create the logo myself based on the party's logo. I even wrote the words in Arabic myself. The proof is that it's a png file and you can check that the words I wrote are editable in any program that edits png files. Also the rest of the logo I did make it myself.

Dear Stefan2,
You have tagged the following mage for deletion earlier today: File talk:WordLensLogo5Feb2012.png
I have uploaded these files under CC-SA 3.0 license yesterday. The copyright holder for these files is Quest Visual, Inc. Your tags mention that there is no evidence that the copyright holder gave permission to use these file under this license. However, I have obtained permission for the company's president Otavio Good, who has sent an email for the I uploaded to permissions-en@wikimedia.org yesterday.
Please, let me know whether you can check if those emails were received. I would reapply appreciate if you could let me know how to avoid deletion of these files. Alternatively, I would appreciate your advice on how to do file upload properly. I am still a relatively new user, and I thought I have followed the rules correctly by obtaining permission from the copyright holder before uploading the images.

You do a very thorough job of checking files, so if you wanted, I would add you to the whitelisted users for User:OgreBot. When you'd review a file with NowCommons reviewer (Template talk:Now Commons#User:MGA73/nowcommonsreview.js), I would then later run the bot, and any files uploaded under a different file name would have their transclusions fixed to the new name. Then I would delete all the files you've tagged by hand; when it is under the same name on Commons, I could do this very quickly with Twinkle. The result would be that your tagged files are deleted more quickly, and frankly it would save me a lot of time too. Magog the Ogre (talk) 04:50, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

I am curious, if this file (or others like it) were on Wikimedia Commons would that make a difference? From my own experience a few years ago of trying to get an image removed from Commons that had been created by myself and had been uploaded to Commons without my permission, I got the impression that Wikimedia Commons generally don't care much about images having correct copyright tags and give a great amount of leeway towards retaining images.

Hi Stefan2, I appreciate your work to prevent unlicensed images getting onto Wikipedia. So I've taken steps to licence this image File:UK-GHG-emissions-by-sector-1990-2010.png. The image was actually saved by taking a screenshot in Ubuntu of a graph produced using ggplot2. This is all open source GNU licensed software, so I think I'm justified in licensing it in this way. Please confirm or communicate otherwise so this does not happen again. I plan to make many graphs available for Wikipedia.

Hello. I saw your message in my talk page regarding the file File:MEBEA Fox.jpg
This is an old ad, published in my own book, and an extremely rare depiction of the car (maybe I should choose another licensing option). I think that based on the above it should not be deleted. Skartsis (talk) 16:33, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Please post new messages at the bottom of my talk page, not at the top of it. Because you added it at the top, I didn't notice it for a while.
People associated with a specific subject risk writing a biased article on the subject, so editors are encouraged to avoid contributing to such articles. See WP:COI for information. It seems that many of the changes that you did to the article were reverted.
It is generally accepted that files on Wikipedia should be available under a free licence (meaning that most people can do most things with the files without having to as for permission) and that files not available under a free licence should be kept at a minimum. Take a look at the article on Einar Jónsson, for example. He was an Icelandic sculptor and has made many different sculptures. Since the sculptures in Iceland are copyrighted, Wikipedia does not display any photos of them. He made a sculpture in the United States, and there is a photo of that statue on Wikipedia since its copyright has expired. The copyright terms in Iceland are not the same as those in the United States, so a copyright may expire earlier in Iceland than in the United States or vice versa.
In some cases, it may be impossible to find any items which may be used under a free licence, so some images are used under a fair use claim, but such images should be kept at a minimum. The article on Marc Quinn contained way too many fair use images, so many of them have to be removed. There is also the issue that the British copyright law differs from the law in Iceland and the United States: you may take a photo of artworks permanently located at a public place, such as statues, and use the photo without having to ask for permission. In the case of Marc Quinn, there seems to be at least one artwork located at a public place, so the obvious free image here would be a photo of that artwork. However, this also requires that the photographer doesn't require additional incompatible terms.
There is also the issue that you included way too many images: there seemed to be more images than text, making it cumbersome to read the article. --Stefan2 (talk) 23:17, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi Stefan2. Hope you're well. A user recently contested the deletion of File:WanderersLogoFeb1975.jpg on my talk page. Since you were the editor who nominated the file for deletion, your input would be appreciated. Thanks, FASTILY (TALK) 10:36, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
Hallo Stefan2. Thank you for your reply on Fastily's talk page. I agree with you, if Wikipedia's purpose in this context is to reduce the use of non-free content to a minimum. I don't agree, if the purpose of an encyclopedia is to provide interesting information, connections and analogies to the "knowledge seeking" user and links for others to contribute to an article. What are the priorities at Wikipedia?
The second sentence of the "Adaption - Film"-section of the article makes no sense without the image. So it should be deleted as well. And without that sentence it makes no sense at all to keep the remaining image. So that one should be deleted, too. The article itself does not suffer that much from omitting the image, but the section does.
And I'd appreciate, if - in future - you gave reasonable explanation why you nominate an image for deletion, like you did on Fastily's talk page. The reason you gave in the nominated for deletion discussion was not reasonable at all. And a deletion based on that(!) discussion is really hard to follow. Otherwise one might easily get the idea that Wikipedia is not for the world's community, but more a private matter of a few individuals. No offense :-) Thanx for taking your time. Nikoskla (talk) 19:28, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

In order to upload photos here, they normally need to be available under a free licence. It seems that your files already have been deleted, so I can't check why they were deleted, but based on my comment on the possibly unfree files page, it seems that there was something wrong with the licensing terms. Normally, a notice would be posted on your user talk page so that you can participate in the deletion debate, but it seems that something went wrong this time. I have fixed those notices and you can also use the "Main article" links here on this page to get to the deletion debate. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:50, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for notifying me about File:Dakota Goyo.jpg. However, I don't really appreciate the warning template. I am quite familiar with uploading files on Wikipedia. It is dull to notify me that there is a free image equivalent without doing a proper search yourself for free images on Google. The licensing and non-free media information template is properly filled to meet Wikipedia's non-free use rationale guideline and respective policies. For that reason, I've contested your deletion on the file and file talk page. Whenaxis talk · contribs | DR goes to Wikimania! 01:16, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
I'm not sure where you get that there was no rational. Copied from the image page; This low quality, still frame from a television show illustrates the subject of articles to which it is linked without substantially competing with the owners' usage. It is not possible to replace this with a free image as it documents an exhibition which is irreproducable. Darker Dreams (talk) 06:56, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
I'm interested to understand your comment "is there a proof that the work is PD in the US in the first place? There is no proof of publication which is a requirement for anonymous post-1891 works to be out of copyright" The description states where the photograph is from and the records of the Royal Aero Club can be seen at the RAF Museum in Hendon and are available online through Ancestry. Is the question "what constitutes publication?" It's correct to say there was no commercial publication but the records would have been available for inspection by members of the club and presumably others if they asked. That by many definitions would suggest publication has taken place.
In any event I would suggest that the requirement about proof being needed for anonymous photos should be added to the template documentation so that others don't fall into the same "trap". NtheP (talk) 16:10, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Stefan2,
I reviewed your deletion nominations and I agree that the Sixto Escobar Stadium and Gaia (artist) photos have a problem. I noted that in their deletion discussions, and I added that I agree with their nomination. For the other photos, I believe there is an allowable use under WP:NFC#UUI.
Please note that WP:NFC#UUI defines the following as an allowable use:
In every case, I used these photos in conjunction with critical commentary, multiple newspaper quotes, and in-line citations. I did this for every book, and every film, that was illustrated by a photo. I noted this WP:NFC#UUI language in the deletion discussion, and I hope you are able to consider it.
Thank you, Nelsondenis248 (talk) 01:29, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi Stefan,
I saw you stuck up a tag on the "So You Think You Can Dance (United States)" article. I wanted you to know that I removed it, but not because I'm disregarding your concerns. I only removed it because I'm pretty much the only one whose been refurbishing the page for some time now, so I didn't see the need to add yet another distraction to an already too-busy page, if you follow my meaning. At the same time, I appreciate your interest in keeping the page in concordance with Wikipedia policy, so I thought I'd broach the subject with you here and if you have any thoughts, please share them with me on the talk page for the article, which I review from time to time (or on my talk page for that matter).
So here's my rationale for the use of the images. As I'm sure you know, the rules for the English Wikipedia with regard to use of fair-use materials are a little more flexible than are those for the Commons. Wikipedia does allow the use of certain types of non-free images so long as they 1) (first and foremost) follow the policy guidelines and 2) also conform to standard fair-use guidelines. One of the exceptions specifically examined in the policy outlines is the use of screen captures for a television broadcast, which can be used if a number of different criteria are met, including, but not limited to: 1) Foremost, that there is no non-free equivalent available. We seem good there as any other picture of a broadcast that would fit the uses we have would have the same issues. 2) That the image is relevant to the article and generally helps illustrate its content. I think we're good there. I tried to pick images that reflected valid content and tie them appropriately into the main content through the captions and placement. 3) The images should be used in a sparing fashion (that is, not used in more articles than is appropriate. I intend to use them only on the current page. Now the flip side to that is that I could perhaps use less images. I suspect this is probably why you added the tag in the first place. Again, give me your thoughts on a talk page on that. I have an idea of which two I'd choose to axe if we need to scale it back. I also think shrinking the images a bit further to smaller resolution might be appropriate as well, in this case. There are other policy guidelines, but looking at your talk page, I get the feeling you are fully familiar with them. And those are my thoughts on the main issues anyway. I didn't want you to think I was removing the tag arbitrarily and wanted you to know the issue was being minded by the editor who added them images in the first place. edited to add: By the way, any impressions on the page as a whole? Talk page there has been dead for days. Snow (talk) 03:10, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Ok that make sense. F1 duplication. I accept that but the file was a different picture from the movie...it was a few frames further on. Different shot. It wasnt the same file at all, same people yes, same setting, thats all. Different frame, so someone made a mistake. Can I have it reinstated please. I appreciate it superficially looks the same, but its not. However to save this happening again I request this file of mine, the other one that looks like it, be deleted please. If you cant do this can you direct me to where I can request this , thanks in advance. Here is the file I request for deletion Meher Baba and Bill Le Page.jpg . I uploaded this. And then if you dont mind, this one File:Bill Le Page & Meher Baba 1954.jpg with all the justifications attached, put back. Id appreciate it, it took a lot of work to justify its use. I admire Wikipedias goals and based on other files like this, this one deleted is OK as its the same use as one on Meher Baba's page. Last thing if it cant be reinstated because its gone for ever, so be it, then can you delete this file Meher Baba and Bill Le Page.jpg as I put the wrong info on it, being new to uploads. Once its gone I will start afresh --No-More-Religion (talk) 02:55, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the apology. Some of the blame is mine because I put wrong information on the first screenshot from the film as I was new to uploads and didn't see the screen shot radio button. That led to the F1 issue when I uploaded another image. I'm happy now that the file is correctly licensed. No ones born with the knowledge of how Wikipedia works. In fact when I was born the net didn't exist. How far we have come!

Hi Stephan. it seems you regularly take a lot of criticism for inaccurate tagging of files.

I didn't say that I took the picture, but I own the picture. My grandfather gave it to me (with a bunch of others) when he passed.

Hi there. I see you seem knowledgeable about Wikipedia's non-free image policies so I have a question for you. I noticed Wikipedia has started deleting old versions of non-free images within the last couple of months (which I can understand), but it leaves me curious about something. For example: When I upload a file that was distributed for publicity (such as a cast photo for a well-known television series), I usually upload the entire image to show the network/cast/date information (or sometimes a side-by-side version of both front and back for the same reason), and then I immediately upload a "cropped" version of the image to appear as it should within the infobox/text of the article. Should I keep doing this in order to provide the information provided by the network (in case anyone has any questions about the image)? Or should I now skip this step and just upload the final cropped version as it should appear in the article? --- Crakkerjakk (talk) 12:52, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the tag on the copyright. I had the permission but forget to send the email to the permission group.

You left a notice with the header "Possibly unfree File:Brettina, headband and Nanette Lepore.jpeg" on my talk page and on the PUF page. Does my reply on the latter correctly resolve the image as CC-by-SA? Assuming it does, should I revise the file page myself, such as with a copy of the pointers to the Archive.org copies of the pages that document the image's status?

File:Live at Montreux - Gary Moore DVD.jpg File:Live at Montreux - Gary Moore DVD.jpg (delete | talk | history | links | logs) – uploaded by 52-Blues-93-Rock (notify | contribs | uploads | upload log). Excessive use of non-free files. Stefan2 (talk) 00:07, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that a file (image) has been put up for deletion due to the reason you gave a "excessive use on non free content . I'd like to contest this if possible under the grounds that the file up for deletion is different to the first image. (first image in cd cover, second is dvd cover) I'd appreciate it if it wasn't deleted due to the fact it makes the page more professional by having a cover for the dvd minibox. I'm new here by the way so I hope this is the right way of contacting and I apologise if I done anything wrong here, still finding my way and I hope this makes sense. Thanks and bye. 52-Blues-93-Rock (talk) 01:28, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Since that time, the email from the creator of the image indicating permission for its use under a CCO license, has been received, and probably working its way through the process of review. As well, the article in which the image was used has already been the subject of a DYK. The article was the scene of a massive vandal attack, and my efforts were in trying to rebuild the piece into something more worthy; I'm definitely less steamed now.

Stefan,
I sent a forwarded email to permissions-enwikimedia.org for the File:Keefus bleeding. Is there anything else needed in order to stop deletion of this photo? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lazaearth (talk • contribs) 06:52, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
For this file, you noted "You can't release a derivative work of a CC file to the public domain". The "moderate finesse" illustration represents a low-resolution borrowing of a few square inches from "File:Fabry Perot Etalon Rings Fringes.png", which was uploaded by User:Johnwalton under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported.
I was very puzzled trying to figure what license to claim when I uploaded this. Everything except this little bit is 100% my own work. None of the other choices seemed to fit. Should I perhaps computer-generate a replacement image so that this is 100% my own work, with nothing photographic? Does not having a correct license render this image in danger of deletion?

Hello Stefan2,
Thank you for letting me know that the licencing information for the image is not provided the way Wikipedia requests. I have added more explanation in the Licencing section under the image. Please let me know if it is sufficient. If it is not, what information exactly do you require? Would you need me to post you an email where the author of the book (the current copyright holder) gives me an explicit permission to use his image and also the image of the book cover to be posted on Wikipedia? Your advice is highly appreciated.

I did create this image for a post on my website, for a new service that the website I write for was offering. TRG Techcasts is a podcast network featuring 5 shows, and this work is originally mine. I created the logo in Adobe Photoshop CS5 using primarily the rectangle & line tools (with the help of distortion tools to create the curved lines on the radio waves), and the font used in the "Techcasts" word is a font that the author did clear for me to use commercially. I have several references from other employees of the website who were present when I created the logo. I will gladly provide their names and email addresses if necessary.

I am currently setting up a wiki page about my grandfather (Giorgio Matteo Aicardi) who was an Italian painter. I jointly own the paintings with my mother and the pictures were taken by myself and uploaded here whilst writing the article. What is the problem with the licensing I chose on the following?
file:Baptismal Font in St. Peter, Rome (1915).jpg
POST EDIT - There is no actual online source for the pictures I am uploading as they are all photos I have taken of the artwork that my grandfather created. Infact if you google my grandfather's name, Giorgio Matteo Aicardi, you will hardly find any information and the only artwork you will find would be the few that we actually sold in the last 20 years. Hope this helps.

Main page: Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files/2012 April 21 § File:Seamus Romney.jpg |
I strongly disagree with the proposed deletion of the picture of Seamus (dog). I submitted documentation that Scott Crider, the founder of Dogs Against Romney, gave Wikipedia the right to use the picture under a Creative Commons 1.0 license, and I was given an OTRS number. There is no way that I can definitely prove that Scott Crider was granted permission from Boston Globe to use the photo, and likewise there is no that I can definitely prove that the Boston Globe was given permission by Jane Romney. However, nowhere in Wikipedia's image use policy does it require that a picture be verified back to its origin -- antecedent verification would be an impossibility in many cases. Many of Wikipedia's images are from magazine and newspapers -- do we verify the magazine or newspaper has a proper copyright? Below I list two Wikipedia images whose copyrights are not verified all the way back to its origin. Debbie W. 04:40, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
You've contacted me because of the lack of permission proof of some images I've uploaded:
All mentioned images are by my own hand, I (Age Bosma, a.k.a. Forage, f.a.k.a Prodoc) made those pictures. All documentation about donating images talk about hosting the images elsewhere to proof they are mine. I, however, never published them elsewhere and I have no intention in doing so because I have no use for it. I have no idea on how to proceed now, just to proof the images are mine. --Forage (talk) 11:59, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, sorry about the incident with the image on the "Turning Tables" page. I originally uploaded the image on my website about Adele, the Adele Wiki (http://adele.wikia.com), which is a very reliable source of information about Adele. I have had that image in the article about "Turning Tables" on the website forever (ever since the page was created), and I swear I found it on a reliable website that I thought had the copyright and stuff, but maybe I was wrong. I did cite the Adele Wiki as the source for the information, but I totally understand if it still can't be verifiable and you have to delete the image. As far as I know, though, it is the official cover art for the single, but if you have to delete the image, I totally understand. Sorry about that. ---Tsu'tey♫ (talk) 01:49, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello Stefan,
Thanks for your notes about five images I've added to the Joseph Eastham High School page. I designed and drew two of these images myself: 1. The Little Shop of Horrors Ticket was my ticket design. 2. The Superpupil comic was drawn by me. Should I also send this information to permissions or is it enough to inform you?
3. The Barry Island 'Postcard' illustration from school magazine was by another teacher at the school, John Jordan and I'll hopefully be able to get him to send confirmation to Wiki permissions. 4. Similarly, I'll ask Leanda Ryan to send permission for the Lyme Regis circa 1989 photograph.
5. The only problem would be the Profile Magazine Christmas cover by Wai Tsau Wong who left the school in 1988, I've no idea where she is now. Can anything be done to keep this image in, or do I need to replace it with a credited image?

---Under the options menu, the artist allowed the option to download the image, that was his choosing, he easily could have disabled a download option.
Same goes for the Ideologija page, they designed the album cover and also gave it as a free download, again under the options menu here: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=368422636543304&set=a.368422573209977.97964.106806276038276&type=3&theater
I might have choose the wrong license, but that does not mean the cover can't be used. If you want to remove it, do so, I really don't care because the artist doesn't have a problem with it, his publisher doesn't have a problem with it and the company that designed the cove doesn't have a problem with it, but you do, so remove it.
"Mere downloading is a copyright violation in some countries." Might be so only if you profit from the image, so explain how you are profiting from it other than using it to illustrate a cover.

In Response
I think I said that I created this particular piece of artwork. When doing so, I did not have it copyrighted. This particular structure is a copy of a copy going back to the 5th Century AD. Changes have been made along the line such as colors, the use of saints or cherubs and even size. Nevertheless, the original creators of this structure are gone at least 1000 years. My photo is a picture of my finished work. I would guess that this work of art is public domain since the design has been in one for or another for 15 centuries. This artwork was build in the United States, New York State and is build to stand for one week out of every year in celebration of Saint Paulinus of Nola, Italy. (San Paolino, (It))

I did not alter with an of the image files and they are clear and normal. Please message me before you do anything else to files I have uploaded before you decide to delete them with suspicion. Thank you User talk:NackFinch May 3rd, 2012 —Preceding undated comment added 22:34, 3 May 2012 (UTC).
Hi, I just uploaded a smaller version of File:Xuanyuan Jian The Scar in the Sky (軒轅劍之天之痕).jpg. Feel free to check it out and, if possible, delete the previous versions.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 00:54, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
Hello Stefan, I need some help with the image you tagged earlier. It seems to be missing a description and author. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to add these into it. For referrence I am talking about this picture. -User:Atomic Religione
What do you think - if you can help - is this image free? http://photo.cefapa.com/ursula-murayama/334777 Michele — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.0.221.244 (talk) 16:16, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

If you are an administrator you can speedy delete it. I just hadn't gotten around on tagging it yet. Jhenderson 777 12:42, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
This page has now reached a ridiculous size. I have asked MiszaBot to do something about it. See this message for my reasons. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:56, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
