Fair use images
[edit]Fair use images are not allowed in userspace. By using them, you are infringing on the intellectual property of the copyright owner, and violating United States Copyright law, as well as Wikipedia Policy. If you continue to revert the removal of the images, you will be blocked. --Deskana (banana) 20:05, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
- First of all, the "relevant article" you directed me to wasn't the relevant article, it's here. My apologies for using the "fair use" content improperly; your explanation to me about their use led me to incorrectly believe that moving them to a subpage (/CMB) would make it okay, but I've since reviewed the policy and realized my error. Those images are now all removed and will stay removed until I add all the changes to the genuine article, though I added back the non-copyrighted photos I created myself. Hopefully it's acceptable now.
- I thought it was fairly clear from the incomplete state of the article I'm writing that I was using my userpage as a sandbox, which I believe is an acceptable procedure. The article in question I seek to replace is truly horrid, so I'd rather not even have to look at the thing while doing the new one. I was not seeking to exploit Wikipedia for webhosting, apologize if it looked that way, but want it mentioned that appearances can be deceiving. I didn't know that number of contributions has any weight in the consideration of a name change, but [1] and a major rewrite of Irulan Corrino were also myself. I'm just sometimes lazy about logging into my account. Hopefully this clears everything up, if there is anything else I can do please inform me. Now shall it be possible for my name change to be approved? --TheMuad'Dib

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Alumni Directors.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Alumni Directors.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 08:57, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:ISU Whirlybird.JPG
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:ISU Whirlybird.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:ISU Whirlybird.JPG)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:ISU Whirlybird.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:30, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Iowa State uniforms
[edit]I finally got around to creating all of the NCAA Div I uniforms and I remember when you made the Cyclones version. I still like what you did, but I'm going to tweek it a little bit. JohnnySeoul (talk) 02:25, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
