Image copyright problem with Image:Mem-Hall,-Front-web.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Mem-Hall,-Front-web.jpg. 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 14:41, 1 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please use the "Move" function edit

Re: Andy Kennedy: When moving an article, please do not just copy & paste the text into a brand new article. Instead, please use the "Move" link (to the right of the "History" tab at the top) - that way the edit history for the moved article is preserved. Also, please fix any links to that article so that they point to the article at its new destination, to save other editors the bother. Thank you. Qwghlm 23:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
