Orphaned fair use image (Image:RichmondSC.gif)

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:RichmondSC.gif. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

License tagging for Image:Indochine promo band.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Indochine promo band.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 18:06, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Dandenong Thunder SC.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Dandenong Thunder SC.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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.BetacommandBot 14:06, 29 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

David Whitfield

edit

Regarding your recent edit concerning the song "Answer Me". If you care to read the song's article and the accompanying "Answer Me, My Love", you will see that Frankie Laine did record the English version first. So Whitfield's effort was a cover version. The fact that Whitfield got to #1 first in the UK Singles Chart is irrevelant to which was the cover. I am from Kingston upon Hull, like Whitfield, so I have 'insider knowledge'! Pedantic, I know, but in the search for the truth it is important. Best wishes,

Thanks for uploading Image:JAM Productions Logo.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Vote for Football as the Australian collaboration

edit

Hi -- I recently nominated Wikipedia:WikiProject Football (soccer) in Australia/To-do for the Australian Collaboration of the Fortnight.

This WikiProject has been inactive for a long time and with the World Cup coming up, it would be good for football (soccer) articles to be in depth and comprehensive in Australia.

The summary of your edit to New Zealand English said -- ' Removed reference to "maroon" as it was completely incorrect and unreferences. It is pronounced the same in Britain and Australia, and it is always spelt "maroon".' I'm not sure how you can be so sure it is not pronounced "morone" in parts/s of Australia. It sure is in parts of NZ and has been for a very, very long time. Moriori (talk) 05:48, 27 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Actually I meant the opposite, it is pronounced marone nearly always (according to the Macquarie Dictionary, it is "marohn"), my main point was it's *always* spelt maroon, and never marone. Either way, it was totally unreferenced and it was something that as an Australian I feel is untrue in my personal experience, so I removed it. If there's some reference out there to say that I'm wrong, it should be added back. HorseloverFat (talk) 06:42, 27 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

National anthems

If you have a problem with what was Australia's national anthem then please find an authoritative source that is more authoritative than the Australian government source in God Save the Queen. The Australian Government source in the article says "The official anthem was ‘God Save the Queen’ (or ‘King’) from 1788 to 1974", not "1901 to 1974".[1] Opinions of Wikipedia editors do not trump verifiable, authoritative source. --AussieLegend () 14:43, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Victorian Premier League 2010.png

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Victorian Premier League 2010.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 23 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
