Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Blaine.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Blaine.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. 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 escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Inutaisho-2-.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Inutaisho-2-.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).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:31, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:C-97.jpg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers. If you have any questions please see Help:Image page.

Image source problem with Image:C-97.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:C-97.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 20:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Malikarcanum for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. Mfield (talk) 06:28, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Blocked

I have blocked you from editing for the following reasons:

• Multiple questionable image uploads
• Failure to engage with others and discuss the above issue
• Creation of a sockpuppet, Mymuffpuff (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log)
• Use of the sockpuppet to harass another user.

Since you have not responded to any of the criticisms raised on this page, I have not set an expiry on this block. Guy (Help!) 09:54, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I've been accused of "Sockpuppetry", something i've never heard of until now, because someone else came along and reverted the metallica article back to my edit, and no i've been indefinitely blocked. Now, if you look through my submissions, you will see that I have NEVER posted any vulgar, or offensive materials, i've just had a long history of images i uploaded being taken down because i initially didn't understand the copyright laws. I have no idea who this muffpuff is, but it's definitely not me. I don't know what other evidence is expected from me. One other thing about this situation is that this "JzG" blocked me only THREE hours after i had been accused. that was nowhere near enough time for me to notice and respond to these accusations. it i had known about them in time, i would have responded, but now my account's been suspended without expiry. I just find it a little unreasonable, only giving me 3 hours. You have no real proof of these accusations, and thus have no truly valid reason for blocking me, othere than mild suspicion.

Decline reason:

Use of the alternate account has not been addressed. — Jayron32.talk.contribs 19:05, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

 Administrator note I have informed the blocking admin about this unblock request. — Aitias // discussion 16:25, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

• As blocking admin, this response does not address the reasons for blocking as listed above. The other account was MyMuffPuff (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), for comparison, and the sockpuppetry report is at Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Malikarcanum. It's not about responding to accusations, it's about a pattern of disruptive behaviour which places the Wikimedia Foundation in legal jeopardy. Guy (Help!) 17:10, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Request reason:

Now I believe I understand the situation, and what's expected of me. I looked at the contributions page for Mymuffpuff, and he was following User:Elizabeth Bathory, deleting her contributions, editing her talk page, and calling her a "whore" even before i posted those images, to spite her for some reason. She was the one that removed my edits to the Metallica articles, then muffpuff reverted them back to my edit. I have never had any contact with her other than my edits to the metallica articles, so i have no reason to harass her. I had no idea she'd even reverted the articles until after the sockpuppetry accusations. It was purely a coincidence. Also, since i don't have much of an understanding of the copyright laws, and it seems to be causing problems for users other than myself, i shall cease uploading images if my request for block removal is accepted

Decline reason:

Mymuffpuff was created 20 minutes after Elizabeth reverted one of your edits. The sock proceeded to follow her round and their edits uniformly support the edits you made. Its simply not true to say that there was no intersection between you and Elizabeth before the sock was created. I don't believe your explanation and I do not see that you have anything worthwhile to contribute to the project before you confront your actions. — Spartaz ^Humbug! 11:58, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:

I cannot believe how difficult you're making this. I've given you people everything i know of to prove my innocence. I have only ever had the best intentions in editing this site. Is it honestly that hard to believe someone's innocent? I've tried to be polite, I've given all the relevant information about that day. Can't you check my IP or something? there has to be something that can definitively prove my innocence. Am i supposed to admit that i made a sockpuppet? I won't, because i didn't. I refuse to own up to something that has nothing to do with me. From what i've read, it's almost impossible to prove your innocence in a situation like this, so i'm sympathetic to the others who have been in the same predicament. This is the truth, accept it or not. If the true reason for not unblocking me is the image uploads, i already promised that i'll cease uploading them if my block is removed. If this isn't enough to prove my innocence, so be it."

Decline reason:

So be it, then. It is becoming increasingly obvious by your actions alone that you are not as innocent as you say. Please, stop requesting that your block be lifted; it's not going to happen. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 08:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
