License tagging for Image:Scotshields2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Scotshields2.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. 09:10, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Copyrighted Free Use

You've been using the {{CopyrightedFreeUse}} tag a lot for these baseball images, which means that the copyright holder has explicitly released all of his/her rights to restrict the use of these images. Can you provide some evidence to that effect? If not, the images will be deleted. Staecker 21:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked indef for keep on uploading them after that warning. They are copyrighted and can't be used. Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 01:17, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I unblocked Just don't upload any more images from the internet, try to create them yourself. Jaranda ^{wat's sup} 16:36, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your edits to L.A. Dodgers

I appreciate your effort, but I personally don't like how the color scheme is working out. If you tweak the previous template (the one that we all use nowadays) instead of using this one, that would make all the baseball player pages more universal because they would have similar templates, instead of different ones for different teams.

P.S. You're free to join the WikiProject. The more, the merrier.

--Nishkid64 23:19, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I guess I meant Angels. Sorry about that. To join the project, just add your name to the list on the WikiProject page. --Nishkid64 14:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked You have been blocked from editing Wikipedia indefinitely, because you have continued to upload copyrighted images you do not own to Wikipedia and tagging them as "no rights reserved," despite having been warned repeatedly that continuing to do so would result in a block. Andrew Levine 00:40, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please accept my apologies for having blocked you. It was a mistake caused by my quickly reading over the edit summary and not noticing the discrepancy in dates. I hope this does not discourage you from future editing. Andrew Levine 04:11, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

TfD nomination of Template:Angels

Hello. I have nominated Template:Angels, a template which you have substantially worked on, for deletion. You are free to comment on the nomination at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. — Ksy92003(talk) 17:51, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image tagging for File:Scotshields.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Scotshields.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

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

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Cardinalwraith! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 139 article backlog.
