Norinco CQ

Thanks for explaining your initially puzzling revert. That's the way we do things here — explain major changes. Once again, welcome! --Rifleman 82 (talk) 18:08, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I ended up reverting your (revert) on the Norinco CQ before, with a note on the article talk page. Anyway.. nice editing, keep at it. John Nevard (talk) 10:49, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:ARX160withGLX160.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:ARX160withGLX160.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. FASTILY_sock^(TALK) 05:22, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

I am a bot, and will therefore will not be able to answer your questions.

I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used once again.

You need to cite a verifiable external source per Wikipedia policy. See the policy at Wikipedia:Verifiability and the policy at Wikipedia:No original research.

Quote: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true."

Quote: "Wikipedia does not publish original research. The term "original research" refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and stories—not already published by reliable sources." ROG5728 (talk) 23:55, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
