Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created, Bumperball, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article.

Fair use rationale for Image:BumperBall.JPG edit

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:BumperBall.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 image 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 '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 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. Vivio TestarossaTalk Who 14:18, 25 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Image copyright problem with Image:VB6 Advanced GUI.JPG edit

 
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:VB6 Advanced GUI.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Vivio TestarossaTalk Who 14:19, 25 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Lightning edit

Information you have entered is already within the article, Also it has to read like an Encyclopedia which currently it does. -- Bidgee (talk) 15:49, 25 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I'll like to help you out.

"Lightning is one of the most beautiful displays in nature. It is also one of the most deadly natural phenomena known to man."
Parts of the introduction would have got WP:NPV (since it's Your point of view)such as

"With bolt temperatures hotter than the surface of the sun"
Lightning's heat is already in the article.

"and shockwaves beaming out in all directions,"
There is an article on this(Thunder).

"lightning is a lesson in physical science and humility."
Could be classed as WP:NPV and really isn't notable for the article.

  Thanks for uploading Image:BumperBall.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
