Hi There,
I thought that I had tagged these images correctly after I received the initial notification about the copyright. So because the photo's originally came from NASA they are public domain or so I think. I found the images on the discovery website that I cited as the source but when I went back this morning to check the Mars Page where I added the images of the Mars avalanche as well as the Phoenix Spacecraft page where I added an image of NASA engineers working on Phoenix in the lab...All of them were gone:( Can you tell me if I have done something improperly so that I can fix it as I believe that the images really add to the articles they were placed in. Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you:)

editHello Sepeople, don't worry you didn't do anything wrong. Simply, that gallery was rather obtrusive when reading the article. Images are good, but they shouldn't become an obstacle when reading an article. And a gallery of a specific subject is better suited on a more specific article. So I'd say be bold, add a section or subsection on the avalanche to the Geology article and put your gallery there. And if ya do, you may want to think of placing the images in a row rather than 2 by 2, simply to save scrolling time. --ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk - Contribs) 14:58, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Image:Unicorn Deer.jpg
editA tag has been placed on Image:Unicorn Deer.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Unicorn Deer.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Medical sources and the news
editHi,
I noticed you cited two news stories in medical articles (HIV and headache); note that for medical articles, per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Reliable_sources#In_science.2C_avoid_citing_the_popular_press and Wikipedia:MEDRS#Newspapers, newspapers shouldn't be cited. The proper sources are peer-reviewed journals, though news sources can be used to track down the actual medical source that should be cited. Thanks, WLU (talk) 22:00, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
