License tagging for Image:Crestghs.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Crestghs.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:

I deleted this image because it was marked as {{untagged}} for more than seven days, which is one of the criteria for speedy deletion, specifically I4. If you like, I can restore the image and give you a chance to provide the information requested above - ie. source information and an appropriate copyright tag. Let me know if you want me to do this. --TheParanoidOne 23:11, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image restored as requested. Please add a copyright tag to it or it will be deleted again in seven days. If you do not know what tag to add, ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --TheParanoidOne 22:53, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Amos P. Godby High School

I appreciate all the effort you put in on this article. I did find it necessary to trim it down a little, however. Specifically: The names of the coaches is not proper to include, per WP:BIO, and the email addresses are not includable because it is considered WP:SPAM, as well as possibly infringing on the privacy of these individuals.

For the same reason many of the website links were removed. Websites should only be included if they are references to back up otherwise unsourced statements in an article, not as a collection of links intended to generate interest in or traffic to the external website or its subject (again, see WP:SPAM).

I trimmed down the section on sports as well. Please take a look at other Wikipedia articles on High Schools, and you will see that the way I left the article is typical of most Wikipedia High School articles.

I sincerely hope that you are not offended by the editing of your hard work, but it is a collaborative effort, and I feel strongly that my edits were the right thing to do. Thanks, Jerry lavoie 04:44, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Crestghs.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Crestghs.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. BetacommandBot 03:54, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:N045197.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:N045197.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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:Non-free content, 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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 05:09, 8 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. B (talk) 05:09, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Brian Belefant

A tag has been placed on Brian Belefant requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

AfD nomination of Brian Belefant

I have nominated Brian Belefant, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brian Belefant. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

File permission problem with File:Godby High School 19920920.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Godby High School 19920920.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The above also applies to File:Godby High School 19900307.jpg. CT Cooper · talk 10:06, 7 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
