DOL Starter[edit]

The pictures are my own.

Hi Msdaif. I like the pictures on the Direct on line starter page, and would like to help expanding the page and see the animation for direction reversal being placed back, this time with correct reference. If you keen to continue contract me on my talk page. Cheers --Daleh T 10:28, 27 October 2007 (UTC)



The Scissors[edit]

I didn't think anybody even looked at that article. Thanks for editing it though, but why did you make the picture so big? --EMC 01:03, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Competition aerobatics[edit]

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I've tagged the fair use image you uploaded box.gif for deletion, as I've created an alternative free svg version of it. For future reference, I do not believe the image counted as fair use as it is easily replicable. Also please remember to use a fair use rational for each image. You might well do that now as the image in question was uploaded two years ago. :-) If there is anything that you would like me to fix or change with the new aerobatic box.svg let me know, or feel free to change it yourself. Thanks. Mehmet Karatay 13:28, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mehmet, thanks for the new SVG file, I really like it. Thanks for the effort. (I hope you dont mind, but I do have a comment. Perhaps the ground could be a bit more prominent, and green? So that it makes it a little more obvious that the box floor is above the ground?) With regards to the gif image that I uploaded, there are so many licenses, and although I spent a considerable amount of time looking into it, I didnt (and still dont) understand the licenses and their diferences. Is there a "dummys guide to Wikipedia Image Licensing"? :-) I dont upload images for this very reason, (even if I do get permision) unless I created them myself. Thanks again. --Daleh 08:27, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm glad you like the new file. I was thinking about the ground being emphasised as well. Of course I don't mind you having a comment. That was why I asked you if everything was okay with it. :-) I'll make that change when I have a bit of spare time, I have a good idea of how to go about it.
Regarding the guide to Image Licensing I'll try to explain a few things here. Most images you find will be copyrighted and therefore not suitable for use on Wikipedia. For images you don't create yourself, unless it explicitly qualifies as one of the licenses on commons:Copyright tags then it is generally not suitable. If it does qualify, then there should be little doubt that the appropriate license is applicable. The most common licenses that get used for images found elsewhere are copyright expiry (usually older than 70 years since death of author) or the work belonging to the United States Government or NASA.
Fair use is where it gets a bit more interesting. For an image to qualify as fair use you have to prove that it cannot be replicated freely and that its use will not adversely affect the copyright holder. For each article that the image appears in, you must give a fair use rational explaining why it adds to the article in a way that a free image would not. Fair use is mostly used for historical events, deceased people where a photograph can no longer be taken, album covers or film/television scenes. Image:Batian_first_ascent_low_res.jpeg is the only image I've uploaded as fair use and it hopefully gives examples of the points I'm attempting to make. Image:Najimy_MaryPatrick.jpg has an example of a well written fair use rational.
To summarise, most images you find will not be suitable for use on Wikipedia which is probably why you were struggling to find a license. If the image is available under a free license then that commons link will have a description which fits exactly. Finally, here are a few pages which may help:
Don't let the licensing discourage you from putting images on here, just try to ask someone beforehand if you are unsure about which license applies. I hope this helps, but if anything is unclear ask and I'll try to clarify what I've said. Mehmet Karatay 09:18, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for all this info. If I'm ever in doubt I will seek your advice! --Daleh 16:35, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've put some ground in now, hope you like it. Mehmet Karatay 12:13, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
And this pic looks great. Cool little aeroplane. --Daleh 16:35, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid I can't take any credit for the aeroplane or the man as they are both from the Open Clip Art Library. I merely rotated the plane for the desired effect. Mehmet Karatay 17:34, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Little context in Vibration analysis[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Vibration analysis, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Removed link NMEA-0183 page[edit]

Dale, Thank you for reminding me that commercial links are not appreciated and for rücksickslos replacing my link on the NMEA-0183 information page by a link to your own pages. But your justification in your comment that the site does not contribute with useful information I completely disagree with. On our site one can find a lot of information on the NMEA-0183 protocol, amongst others on the "NMEA Information" page (including a link to your pages...). Besides, people can download useful software to explore the NMEA-0183 protocol, the trial versions are completely fully functional. But what wonders me most is why you did not remove the link of Constellation Data also. This is a BIG commercial operation offerring little or no NMEA information on the site. /Ger --Ger.rietman 09:27, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ger. As you know, Wikipedia is all about editing each others work, and hopefully coming to a moderate and above all, correct position in each article. It is my opinion that the SailSoft website is promoting software, and not information about NMEA. The "NMEA information" page does not have much detail, and does not expand much on what is already said on the Wikipedia page about NMEA. However, the links on that page do have a lot more content for those who wish to research further. For the record, I am NOT the same Dale who wrote those articles, and I am in no way affiliated to his. The reason I changed your link was because it came up on my Watch list. If you feel that Constellation Data is also commercial then remove it as well. Please have a look at [[1]]. Kind regards, --Daleh T 08:30, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
