You marked this image as PD, and provided a source. However I looked at the source and could find no evidecne of a release to the public domain. Could you provide further evidence of a release to the public domain. Thanks Zeimusu | (Talk page) 09:21, August 12, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the message on my user talk page. first again welcome to the wikipedia, and I hope you are having fun. And thanks for your contributions.

Let me just say that you are doing a lot of things right: you have given the source and tagged the image. But yes this image is probabaly only allowed under fair use. But before you go tag it, please go and flip through fair use and Wikipedia:fair use. The US law of fair use is a bit of a nightmare. It is worth reading up on it before you get yourself and the project into trouble.

If you want to do the right thing, you should ask for a GFDL release. The source website is in Japan, that might be a problem. See Wikipedia:Boilerplate request for permission for some example requests in English.

Then tag the image as fair use Also you can link to the image source and the top of the site providing the image. Of course if you get the GFDL release you can change the tag latter.

Really, thanks for taking the time to do all this. It is much appreciated.

Happy edits Zeimusu | (Talk page) 11:18, August 12, 2005 (UTC)

Image:Machinenpistole 18.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Machinenpistole 18.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a free image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 22:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kairi SF.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Kairi SF.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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. Sfan00 IMG 15:04, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Edmund Honda.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Edmund Honda.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) 05:16, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
