Image copyright problem with Image:Usu.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Usu.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. 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 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:

Possibly unfree Image:Usu.jpg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Usu.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page to provide the necessary information on the source or licensing of this image (if you have any), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

The image tag you placed on the image claims common property and no original authorship. This tag usually only applies to the most trivial works (See Category:Public domain files ineligible for copyright to get an idea). Photographs of 3-dimensional object are almost always considered containing original authorship and in most Berne Convention countries photographs are copyrighted by default. The proper image copyright tag would probably be {{PD-release}}, if you can provide written documentation in English from the copyright holder of the image that they agree to release the image into the public domain. An easier thing to do is acknowledge that the image is a copyrighted work that the university has on its web site for promotional purposes and tag the image with the {{promotional}} tag. -Nv8200p talk 13:57, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Hamburg-walk.png

Thank you for uploading File:Hamburg-walk.png. 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 created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILY_sock^(TALK) 00:12, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alexander Misharin

Your recent editing history at Alexander Misharin shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly. - please stop repeatedly replacing disputed content to a wikipedia BLP - move to discussion - Off2riorob (talk) 19:34, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Greyhood

Hi, while I think Greyhood is being disruptive and showing repeated bad faith by deleting info with spurious edit summaries, let's keep discussion calm :) It works out better in the long run. Here's perhaps a better place to discuss things. Malick78 (talk) 11:39, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

AE request

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Gritzko

Eastern Europe General Sanctions

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to Eastern Europe. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read in the Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren#Final decision section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page.

Navalny

Apparently we have different opinion on Navalny, but it shouldn't matter here. If you dont explain why Rykow said that, it would be only a half-truth (a half-lie in my opinion). There is no place for it on wikipedia, delete(i have nothing against it) or post the whole story about Rykows comment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.223.214.197 (talk) 18:37, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, however ridiculous such a discussion may be, hmmm. My understanding is as follows: Mr N. used That Verb in singular, which fact means the use was indefinite (like an exclamation "bljat'" does not mean I am summoning a whore, right?). Certain circles made an attempt to reinterpret that a bit to make a story and that did not work out the intended way. In either case, unless you find a reliable source to support your story, I will undo that change. Gritzko (talk) 18:45, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My understanding is that he said 2 sentences, but both were addresed to his followers. So Rykows comment was not unfounded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.223.214.197 (talk) 19:08, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#New topics and headings on talk pages: "Do not mention other editors by name in article talk page headings." I would suggest you rename this talk page heading. TFD (talk) 15:44, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

February 2013

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. "you are a freaking suspected criminal" and other similar commentary about other editors is not acceptable --Demiurge1000 (talk) 11:06, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Freaking" is indeed an attack; the rest is factual and fully official, unfortunately. The guy was actually paid for doctoring Wikipedia and he was paid illegally and he is currently under a criminal investigation. That will be rather ironic to be banned for pointing that out.

File permission problem with File:Hamburg-walk.png

Thanks for uploading File:Hamburg-walk.png. 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ramaksoud2000 ^{(Talk to me)} 23:48, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
