LeDoux article
[edit]Hi! I admit to being surprised at seeing a red link pop up for Chris LeDoux...but we now have a slight problem. Since you did the rewrite over the original page, the copyright violation is now a part of the edit history. You might want to drop a howdy over to an admin who can likely help fix it up for you in turn. User:Raul654 is one of the best. - Lucky 6.9 19:44, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I'll contact him. Dave C. 22:52, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I spoke to Raul and he indicated that it's pretty much accepted that copyvios will become part of the edit history. Other than that, do you see any problems with my edits to clear the vios? Thanks. -- Dave C. 01:06, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- None I can see. Looks good now. If the copyvios are only in the edit history and not the current incarnation, I guess we're in good shape. BTW, "Apostrophe" is one of my all-time favorite albums as well! I used "Yellow Snow" as part of a final exam in my college broadcasting class years ago. Have a great weekend. - Lucky 6.9 20:32, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Very cool! Thanks, have a good one yourself! Dave C. 01:19, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Time Cube
[edit]We are facing a pointless revert war with 211.28.*.*, and based on the talk pages he/she has a lot more patience than any of us. I think we need to move this into mediation or at least a survey (so we can have an official consensus favouring a simple page). I've proposed this idea to 211.28.*.* on the talk page, please feel free to join in and add similar comments. Cheradenine 18:25, 1 May 2005 (UTC)

Please vote
[edit]Could you please vote to get the user we call "Time Cube Guy" banned (Wikipedia:Requests for comment/211.28.*.*)? It looks like you tried to deal with him in the Greenwich Mean Time-related articles. —Sean κ. + 16:48, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
It's not about whether I think it's a folk album or not...it's straight category cleanup: Category:Billy Bragg albums is already a subcategory of Category:Folk albums, so Mermaid Avenue doesn't need to be simultaneously filed in both categories. Wikipedia actually has a stated policy about not filing articles in redundant categories. Bearcat 04:48, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
cubism
[edit]It's easier for admins to revert. The easiest way for non-admins to revert is to click on the "history" tab of the article, click on the date of the version you want to restore, click edit this page (it will warn you it's an "out-of-date" version), fill in the edit summary ("rv" would do), and click the "Save Page" button. That's four clicks or so - a bit more odious than the one-click admin revert. But still often worthwhile<g>. You mentioned copying the old source...that really would be a pain in the butt, so I suspect the method I just outlined might be new to you? - Nunh-huh 06:08, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- Glad to have taught you a new trick. Remember, then: never for evil<g>. - Nunh-huh 06:16, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Frank Zappa discography
[edit]A bold move. I don't know many other artists (not even Miles Davis) having pages to themselves just for a discography. Good decision, it could not be possibly fully featured on the main page for longer, the article size is veering towards 40Kb
- I noticed that The Beatles have their own discography. So do The Rolling Stones . FZ was 42kb; it's down to 39 now. Not sure that saved much bulk, but physical length of the article is much less. -- Dave C. 00:39, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Peter Rowan discography
[edit]When adding "New Freedom Bell" to the Peter Rowan discography, I noticed 2 albums listed for 2009 ("Peter Rowan and the Red Hot Pickers" and "San Antonio Sound". I can only assume this is a typo, but I don't know the correct years. Cmadler 13:51, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for welcoming
[edit]Hello Dave Cohoe, thanks for welcoming me and also for sending me that nice link about this MIT studie concerning mobile phone activities in Graz. Some of the pictures you can download are really amazing. I also had a look at your user page and I was quite astonished to how many countries/states you have already been. I like that kind of visualization and if you don't mind I will just copy it for my page. If that's not alright with just let me know. Have a nice day, Thomas Schenkeli 10:59, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

major editing
[edit]Hi Dave C
I am planning to make major additions to the article on Igor Andreev...just thought I should let someone know before I start. Thanks Aabha R 07:12, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
Hi!..umm..I have edited the page Igor Andreev..am just a bit apprehensive because its my first piece of work. Oh, and thanks for welcoming me onboard! Aabha R 13:27, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
- Looks fine to me. BTW, you don't need to check with anyone; just make common sense edits. It looks like you've done that. I am a bit curious about the copyright of the picture you've added. I don't think I've seen that tag used before. -- Dave C.talk | Esperanza 03:07, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit]Ah! Okay, that makes a lot more sense. It's always quite satisfying to decipher a garbled spelling like that, mm? DS 12:12, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Copyvio template
[edit]Well the reason I created that template was in response to a trend that I noticed. Most new users on Wikipedia simply do not understand the concept of plagiarism or the policies Wikipedia has on it. Whether it simply wasn't taught in their school or maybe there was more tolerance I do not know. What I do know is that most repeat offenders of copyright violations do "Google dumps" believing that they are improving Wikipedia's breadth of content. Once they do a dump, they move on and create more pages, not knowing that are violating copyrights. This is because it is mostly the users reporting these violations do not alert the users on their talk pages. I noticed that it was not a recommended policy to alert copyright violators on first offenses so I took it upon myself to create such a template and alert every user on Wikipedia:Copyright violations but it became too daunting of a task to carry on.
My thoughts was simply that Wikipedia needed an extra provision in reporting copyright violations, that when a user reports a violation of a copyright, that they also alert the user. My template would facilitate such a task. I now see that since then, Wikipedia has added that provision. I do think that the nothanks template is lacking. Should we start a movement to improve it along the lines of my template? — oo64eva (Alex) (U | T | C) @ 17:56, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Howdy, would you like to add a source and a licence tag to the pic?! - Thanks, Scriberius 13:58, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Dave C.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too.

Grammar on Tietê River

- I would suggest "squatter" (squatting), if that seems accurate to you. In fact, São Paulo shows up in the list of "notable and well known squats" in the squatting article. Also, see Prestes Maia. Cheers, Dave C.talk | Esperanza 00:45, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Junior Brown.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Junior Brown.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL.

[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Junior Brown.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Unspecified source for Image:Asylum_Street_Spankers.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Asylum_Street_Spankers.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Fair use rationale for Image:Hazel_Dickens.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Hazel_Dickens.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Speedy deletion of Image:Pete Kleinow.jpg
[edit]A tag has been placed on Image:Pete Kleinow.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[Talk:Image:Pete Kleinow.jpg|the article's talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Image source problem with Image:New Riders of the Purple Sage.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:New Riders of the Purple Sage.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:42, 22 February 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 12:42, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:New Riders of the Purple Sage.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:New Riders of the Purple Sage.jpg.

Replaceable fair use Image:Country Joe McDonald.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Country Joe McDonald.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 10:29, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Flatt and Scruggs.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Flatt and Scruggs.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. 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
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
