Thank you for letting me know that the image didn't had a proper copyright tag.

Image Source

• The image in quesiton is in the public domain as it comes from an Indian Government site Reserve Bank of India Website.
• Information published by Indian government websites are in Public Domain under the Right to Information Act.

I have appended a proper tag for the image. Please let me know if I need to do anything else. The following webpage is the source of the image [1]

Unfortunately, {{PD-IndiaGov}} is incorrect. The person who created it misunderstood the Right to Information Act. As far as I'm aware, information published by the India government is copyrighted for 60 years from the date of publication. --Carnildo 08:11, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Aihole LadKhanTemple.jpg

This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Aihole LadKhanTemple.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stan 03:59, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Greetings

Greetings on India’s 57th Republic Day.

PD-IndiaGov

Sorry, not an area I know much about. The US government seems to be one of very few that doesn't try to use copyright to control its work, you'd think more governments would free up their images so the world sees more than just the US govt versions of everything. :-) If nothing else, you can try emailing government officials, webmasters, etc, see what they have to say.

Nath

Yes, it would be great if someone with knowledge would expand the article. Though I don't know why anyone gets confused by Shri Gurudev Mahendranath's statement. He never said that he was the only Nath guru. He spoke only of the termination of the Adi-Nath subsect with his death... He meant only that... Adityanath 23:13, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

More images

Don't forget to license your own picture! (Image:Aravind parvatikar.jpg) :-) Stan 03:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Image licensing

Hi, The summary of some of the images you have uploaded (Image:SM Krishna.jpg for instance) says they are in the Public Domain, which is not true per Indian copyright laws. Can you please help us fix this? Thanks, --Pamri • Talk 06:21, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I know that. See Wikipedia_talk:Notice_board_for_India-related_topics/archive4#Template:PD-IndiaGov for my earlier comments. The template was moved to Template:IndiaGov and I have reworded that to better reflect the definition and usage. You might want to vote for keep at Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion#Template:IndiaGov. --Pamri • Talk 07:09, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Can you please help us change the summary, where you have said it is under PD and it is not so (I think you can figure that out from your comments), so the summary does not contradict the fair use license. Thanks, --Pamri • Talk 07:11, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

ING Vysya Bank

Hi, I have rewritten the article you created on ING Vysya Bank, since the original was almost an exact copy of http://www.ingvysyabank.com/OurHistory_fr.shtml . I understand, that you didn't do this in bad faith and you probably intended to rewrite it. But its better to create even a small stub and write it in your own words. regards, --Pamri • Talk 13:11, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Harshad_Mehta.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Harshad_Mehta.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 12:01, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

I personally don't know anyone, but you can ask user:Pamri and User:Sumalsn for more information. Pamri knows a few people, and Sumal is a Delhi High Court advocate. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 07:36, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks...

...for starting H.D.KumaraSwamy - contribs to articles related to Indian current affairs are rather weak and conspicuous by their absence. btw, I moved it to H. D. Kumaraswamy, the most appropriate place. --Gurubrahma 18:40, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

There is already an article about H D Kumaraswamy. I have added a merge request to the articles. I feel we should avoid dots in the name. - Ganeshk (talk) 21:16, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

You are welcome. I had put the merge to happen into H D Kumaraswamy. I feel the name without the dots would be a better convention to follow. Currently there is no project to define how the name should be. But we should decide on one convention and stick with it. Check T R Baalu for example. No dots there. Your thoughts? - Ganeshk (talk) 16:59, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

That would need an admin to delete the dab first and move it there. - Ganeshk (talk) 07:38, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
