Image copyright problem with File:LamarMD.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:LamarMD.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

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

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 21:29, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

December 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Lamar Advertising Company. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:27, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Lamar glossy logo.jpg

Hello,

Thanks for uploading File:Lamar glossy logo.jpg to Wikipedia. The image, however, is not in the public domain and the copyright is owned by Lamar Advertising Company (see disclaimer). Copyrighted images should not be uploaded to Wikipedia unless it falls into the fair-use guidelines on Wikipedia. Basically, that means that copyrighted images can be uploaded when no possible free image (one that is public domain, GFDL, etc.) could convey the purpose of the copyrighted image. In this case, uploading a logo under fair-use would be appropriate, as no free-use image could convey a company's logo. In the future, be sure to upload copyrighted images that fall into fair-use guidelines by selecting the proper upload tool and following the instructions there. Be sure to read up and understand this before hand, though, to prevent future mistakes. I already fixed File:Lamar glossy logo.jpg, so it should be all good. If you have any questions or need further clarifications, please reply here or leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 23:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Blank Lamar Bulletin Board.jpg

Hi GobiusWiki. I was wondering how File:Blank Lamar Bulletin Board.jpg, an image that you recently removed from the article Lamar Advertising Company in this edit, is a copyright violation? Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 15:06, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please do not removed the maintenance templates from the top of the article without either fixing the problems stated by the templates, or saying why the templates shouldn't be there (either in your edit summary or on the talk page, preferably the talk page as you can type as much as you want and a discussion may easily ensue). Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 15:17, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

BritishAmerican Business moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, BritishAmerican Business, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — Frayæ (Talk/Spjall) 19:51, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: BritishAmerican Business (October 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by K.e.coffman were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:BritishAmerican Business and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:BritishAmerican Business, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, GobiusWiki! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! K.e.coffman (talk) 00:43, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:BritishAmerican Business

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:BritishAmerican Business, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Orphaned non-free image File:Lamar glossy logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Lamar glossy logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:38, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
