License tagging for Image:JM JJ Duplex handkiss.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:JM JJ Duplex handkiss.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:59, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

re: Josh Max

Hi there AntoinePancakes,

I am the 'wiki twit who apparently never heard of Google' that you referred to in your edit summary for your recent work on Josh Max.

I came across the article randomly and noticed that the two links provided were both for web sites that appeared to be somewhat self promotional, which can be a sign that the subject of the article lacks notability. As I feel that the burden of referencing the notability of the subject is on the creator of an article rather than on the reader, I placed the proposed deletion tag on it.

I did not write in my edit history, 'proposed deletion of article created by someone who has been around here long enough to have had a chance to read WP:NOTE, which spells out the criteria for notability,' as I think that would have been a rude thing to do and would show an obvious lack of class, however accurate it would have been.

I realize that the anonymity of the internet and the decline of civility in society allows one to say pretty much whatever one wishes, especially in venues such as this, but I still believe it worthwhile to be polite and respectful to others as a baseline behavior. This philosophy has a long tradition in our culture as evidenced in such things as the honey/vinegar analogy regarding fly entrapment. This philosophy is also alluded to in WP:CIVIL, WP:AGF and rather succinctly put in the first sentence of the Fundamentals section of WP:DICK.

I truly do believe that for WP to have credibility and receive acceptance it must aspire to a high standard and that it is incumbent on the creators of articles to establish and reference the notability by putting credible, independent references on their additions to WP, and for that reason I will continue to propose deletion for articles that do not. Although I do not consider Mr Max to be particularly notable, he writes a car column, I do think that the reference you have now provided would minimally meet the criteria and I shall leave assessment to others at this point.

Before coming here to write this note I also looked at your edit history and saw that you have made many valuable contributions to Wikipedia, and I want to thank you for the work you have done, we share a love for the music of the Beatles.

Have a nice day, --killing sparrows 01:43, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Dad circa early 70s.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Dad circa early 70s.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.
