Plaid Retina

Just to let you know, I'm putting the wikify tag back onto the Plaid Retina page because the tag is still applicable. Right now there aren't any wikilinks to other articles. I suggest you read through the help files as well as other band articles to give you an idea of what else the article is lacking. Having the wikify tag on the article isn't bad, it's just to make someone who is familiar with the subject aware that the article needs work. Dismas|^(talk) 00:29, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Rejection Era Rehersals in the Boxcar photo Katrina King.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Rejection Era Rehersals in the Boxcar photo Katrina King.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:

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Mind Tracing Spread.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mind Tracing Spread.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Fair use rationale for Image:Rejection_Era_Rehersals_in_the_Boxcar_photo_Katrina_King.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rejection_Era_Rehersals_in_the_Boxcar_photo_Katrina_King.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 17:04, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:RejectionRedVinyl.jpg

I have tagged Image:RejectionRedVinyl.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mind Tracing Compact Disc.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mind Tracing Compact Disc.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 17:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:PlaidRetinaPinkeye.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:PlaidRetinaPinkeye.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 15:33, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Username

I have no idea why no one ever raised this issue with you before, but your username appears to be a blatant violation of WP:USERNAME as it is clearly intended to be offensive. Please go to WP:SIMPLE and request a new username; your edit history will be migrated to that new name. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:28, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
