I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Chad Crews, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Chad Crews. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.—dustmite 23:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Chadcrews.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Chadcrews.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. 00:05, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:ChadCrews.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:ChadCrews.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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.
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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hbdragon88 05:16, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
the picture is OF me taken by my best friend....
the file is hosted on MY server...
there is no copyright i have licensed this to everyone to view....
im not sure how else to go by avoiding deletion...
please help?
- Well, okay. First, write, "This my own file, a personal picture" to specify the source. As for its licensing, how much leeway do you want to give to other people?
- You can place it in the public domian by tagging with {{PD-self}}. Or do you waive all rights to the image? Meaning anybody can modify it without payment or attribution? You can tag it with {{NoRightsReserved}}.
- Now, if you want to retain some rights, you can license it under the Creative Commons. You have two choice: cc-by-sa 2.5 (ShareAlike) and cc-by-2.5. ShareAlike means that whoever makes a derivative work muse also license the image freely. a regular license doesn't require the same licensing.
- I hope that helps. Hbdragon88 19:03, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
