Image:BrookeBrodack.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:BrookeBrodack.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. SchuminWeb (Talk) 07:59, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:BrookeBrodack.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:BrookeBrodack.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, then 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, then 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-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 03:55, 29 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Iamunknown 03:55, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brookers infobox

[edit]

Do you think there's a color we could agree on using for internet personalities? Or do you prefer not to have a color bar? Ichormosquito 05:29, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind that you changed it, but I'm still curious if you think there's another color we can use. I wasn't sure red was best, either. Ichormosquito 16:04, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm happy with that. Ichormosquito 02:47, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What are your ideas?

[edit]

So nice to hear from someone on Wikipedia who doesn't want to chew my brains out.  :) Ichormosquito 12:50, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The "background information" thing looks really good. If I were you, I would only choose one of your ideas to pursue. I modeled the infobox after the "actor", "comedian" and "performer" ones; and all of them are kind of conservative as to what they do. Plus, I already get flak for being "spammy" when it comes to my edits concerning internet celebrities. I sympathize with you, though. They are internet celebrities: of course their bios will have a ton of external links.
So basically, just do what you want; but don't go crazy. Ichormosquito 17:53, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:BrookersNuma.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:BrookersNuma.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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:20, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:BrookeBrodack.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If this image is not under a free license, our policies treat is as a non-free image, whether or not we have special permission to use it. If Ms. Brodack is willing to release the image under a free license such as GFDL or CC-BY-SA, that would allow us to continue using it. Otherwise, per WP:NFCC#1, our policies don't allow it. — Carl (CBM · talk) 17:14, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We need actual confirmation by the copyright holder that the image is released under the GFDL. You can ask them to send it to permissions-en@wikipedia.org. They should mention the image name and give explicit permission to release it under the GFDL. — Carl (CBM · talk) 17:42, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I saw your comment on the image talk page. You say you have permission from this person to release the image under GFDL. Do you have an email or other record of the release? — Carl (CBM · talk) 12:04, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Spore page was moved to Spore (2008 video game) causing your redirect page at User:Yeahwhynot/Redirect/Spore to become a double redirect. I did not update this redirect since it is in your user space, but you will probably want to do so yourself. Dansiman (talk|Contribs) 00:28, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
