License tagging for Image:12900181-01-031.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:12900181-01-031.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 21:05, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:NMHM-Dreyer-Sequencer.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Eight-ball

Please do not promote this game in the article. It may be your patent, or you may just like it and have no connection, but it is not a notable variant in this article on the global game. I don't think even mentioning this game would be warranted under WP:WEIGHT.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 03:05, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Ah, I see you have been promoting this one person in multiple articles. Please stop now.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 03:08, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
