License tagging for Image:Dora Maar Au Chat.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dora Maar Au Chat.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

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. 19:06, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Overhyperlinkages

You don't have to hyperlink all the words that have been hyperlinked. Once is enough. -- Jerry Crimson Mann 15:23, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Warning

Please don't upload images you have copied from other websites. Doing so violates copyright laws and is against our policy. Continued upload of these copyright violations will lead to your account being blocked. Thanks --Hetar 18:48, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Most images at other websites are copyrighted in ways not accepted here. Please do not make false claims of copyright licenses. Please visit http://www.gakei.com/hkbec/note.htm for the copyright information of your recently uploaded images. We can accept your claims only if you give us evidence of proper copyright permission. Thank you.--Jusjih 12:48, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I have reverted a recent edit you made to the article Image:Lok Ma Chau KCR Station.jpg. You did not provide an edit summary, and I could not determine whether the edit was vandalism or a constructive contribution. In the future, please use edit summaries. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. HighInBC 16:34, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Blocked

I have blocked this account for repeatedly uploading unfree images, making spurious license claims, and then reverting cleanup attempts. I will unblock this account upon receiving a commitment from the user to not use this account to upload any more copyright-infringing images, and refrain from interfering in the attempts of other users to clean up the ones already committed. Jkelly 16:41, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I take it that your removal of the above with no comment indicates that you are unwilling to give any such commitment. Jkelly 16:57, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Please do not remove warnings from your talk page or replace them with offensive content. Removing warnings from your talk page will not remove them from the page history. If you continue to remove warnings from your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks. --Sam Blanning^(talk) 17:26, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Gakei.com images deleted

All images uploaded from gakei.com have been deleted. Per United States Copyright law and Wikipedia policy (which is stronger than the law), it is the responsibility of the person uploading the images to provide proof of free or fair use, and asserting "I have got permission from www.gakei.com to upload his photos for the websites" is not proof. One method of proof, as an example, would be a page on the owner's website (provided the owner actually maintains the website) that gives explicit permission for Wikipedia to use the images. Absent this explicit permission, the uploads violate law and policy. (Currently, the website includes this copyright notice: "IMPORTANT: ALL bus photo images were taken by GAKEI, who retains the copyright privilege over them. You are NOT welcome to show any of them to the public in any form or by any means without his permission IN ADVANCE.") RadioKirk talk to me 20:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Possibly unfree Image:Ngong Ping 360 (2).jpg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Ngong Ping 360 (2).jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:Double decker ferry.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Double decker ferry.jpg. 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.

File permission problem with File:Triple decker ferry.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Triple decker ferry.jpg, which you've attributed to www.nwff.com.hk. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 16:53, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
