Speedy deletion nomination of Arnold Voltre edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Arnold Voltre requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

License tagging for File:Seedrioru logo.jpeg edit

Thanks for uploading File:Seedrioru logo.jpeg. 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) 18:05, 18 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

File:Arnold Voltre.jpeg edit

You say the file is from a private collection, that's not really enough information.

  1. Who took the photo? (In most countries that makes them the copyright holder)
  2. If the answer isn't that you took the photo, how was permission given to you to use the photo?

If you can start by answering these two questions we can take it from there about what other information might be needed. Nthep (talk) 15:59, 19 August 2016 (UTC)Reply


Ok, this photo was taken by an unknown photographer submitted to the Seedrioru Estonian Camp Archives who is the primary owner. I am on the current Board of Directors and give permission to use the photo.

Thanks, but I'm afraid it is not as simple as that. Donating a photo to an archive does not transfer the copyright to the owners of the archive unless that is specifically stated as part of the donation. As far as I can tell Estonian copyright law follows the EU rules so as an anonymous work this photo remains copyrighted until 70 years after first publication. So unless this image was first published (not created) prior to January 1, 1946 it is still in copyright.
Was it first published prior to this date? If not the best solution would be to change this from a free licence to a non-free image by removing the current detail and adding {{Non-free use rationale}} with all details completed. Nthep (talk) 16:21, 19 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Arnold Voltre edit

 

The article Arnold Voltre has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A general search for sources does not bring up anything very convincing to meet WP:BASIC

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:Arnold Voltre.jpeg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Arnold Voltre.jpeg. 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:27, 20 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Non-free rationale for File:Seedrioru-60-Logo-Official-transparent.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Seedrioru-60-Logo-Official-transparent.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 20:35, 22 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:34, 25 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use File:Mälestussammas.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Mälestussammas.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:39, 17 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
