Rhapsody in Blue Titleartwork

Goody morning. I am Musicsciencer from the german Wikipedia. I'm also the main author of our Rhapsody in Blue Article. In the service of our encyklopedia I'd like to use the pic from the premiere in our version.

I'm not sure aboute the rights. Is it possible just to upload it on the german server and link to your pic?

As I am not familiar with the copyright issue, I am afraid that I cannot tell much on whether it is alright to put the picture into the German article. The picture should be qulified for US fair use for book cover due to the (common) rationale stated in the image page. It may be alright too to put the picture into the German one, but if you want to be careful, you should ask someone else who is real pro on the issue.

A really impressive work by you and other editors for the German article. Dono 14:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Grand Canyon Suite, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material.

File copyright problem with File:Carl_Nielsen_1922.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Carl_Nielsen_1922.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Chris G Bot (talk) 00:13, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List of compositions by Carl Nielsen

Hi! You made some significant edits to the page List of compositions by Carl Nielsen a few years back that looks like it could either use either citations or more neutrality (judgments on the relative value of some of his works, for instance- this is generally only allowed on Wikipedia when properly referenced to a critic or other authority). Was wondering if you had some time in which you could give the section a look-over?

Thank you, and happy editing - Schissel | Sound the Note! 21:37, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Areas in Hong Kong

[1] I'm afraid the Hong Kong Government uses the word 'areas' instead. This is also the usage in British English.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.237.150.205 (talk) 17:46, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Nielsen Symphony no 5 - 1A. Tempo.ogg

Thanks for uploading File:Nielsen Symphony no 5 - 1A. Tempo.ogg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:44, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
