Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:AnPhoblacht1981LeinsterHouse.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. Stefan2 (talk) 21:13, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Direct Democracy Ireland, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trim (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Syrian civil war

[edit]

SOHR is not a reliable source except what you remove was cited to The Australian, which is a reliable source. Do not use false edit summaries, and do not remove reliable sourced content. Darkness Shines (talk) 09:13, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • The Australian simply regurgitated what SOHR said. There is no independent verification aside from claims of some guy sitting in a house in Coventry. Therefore it is completely untrue to say that "The death toll was updated to 145". No it wasn't, a claim was made by a person sitting hundreds of miles away in his house in England.--CommieMark (talk) 09:27, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Really? Says who? You are more than welcome to take it to the RSN board. But in a nutshell, what you think about "some guy sitting in a house in Coventry" has no bearing in the matter, the Australian is RS by all Wiki policies so unless you get a consensus to say it is not, do not remove the content again.

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at Syrian civil war, you may be blocked from editing. Darkness Shines (talk) 09:49, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • There was no disruptive editing. Read the link and you will see that the edit is in line with what is said in the piece. Sopher99 intentionally did not include all the information from the link --CommieMark (talk) 09:52, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note - I have changed the section header of your recents talk page edits. See WP:TALKNEW. - DVdm (talk) 10:16, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Cool, thanks
Dear Mark, You probably won't take the advise, but, one, you have decided to battle a person with roll back authority and other privileges -- and while he is not an administrator he or she is as close to being one without being one. And you can never win a battle with an administrator or one that is almost an administrator. Second, even if you had not decided to battle with the wrong person, you were standing on good ground until you wanted to take a swipe at two editors with that section naming on TALK pages, that is a big no-no on talk pages. And at last three. Please read this WP essay. It will save you a lot or heart ache (and the poor cat or dog being kicked around) if you decide to stay with WP. One, an older (and I am old) WP editor several years ago told me "..not to worry about edit reverts or deletion. Move on to the next edit." Very good advise. To wit, edit wars never are worth it. To much energy. Best of Luck! Jack E. HammondJackehammond (talk) 10:42, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cheers Jack. ;)--CommieMark (talk) 11:00, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Direct Democracy Ireland

Hi, despite my repeated requests, user:JustShere continues to edit war at Direct Democracy Ireland. If this continues, then you should open a request at WP:ANI in order to deal with the issue. Snappy (talk) 22:01, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You couldn't help me improve the above article. Said I'd create it, since it's featured so prominently in the media recently. Some mutual acquaintances of ours are involved in that "trust" lol.

File permission problem with File:Brian Stanley TD Sinn Féin.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Brian Stanley TD Sinn Féin.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

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS 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. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Blurred Lines 14:22, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:An Phohblacht front page July 2013.jpg.

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).

Hello, CommieMark

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Govvy, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Wowburger, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Govvy}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)
