Image source problem with Image:WrestlePalooza98.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:WrestlePalooza98.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 17:00, 13 September 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:00, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:WrestlePalooza98.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:WrestlePalooza98.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia 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 under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:00, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Super Mario Bros. Nippon.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Super Mario Bros. Nippon.gif. 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) 05:15, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Slamboree 93.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Slamboree 93.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.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --FairuseBot (talk) 02:53, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Oi!

I was reading over my talk page and you are one nasty git! Oh I suppose I am "attacking" you. For your info, "reading was not my best subject in school" as I am currently still in bloody school, and I hope I get a proper job instead of monitoring a website as if I have some kind of authority. Lol, authority, you don't even know the meaning. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rfcucl1972 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: Image:Battlebowl.JPG

The image had no fair use rationale (it only said "scan, used in Battlebowl"). If you're willing to fix it by following the guidelines at WP:FURG, I can restore it for you. east.718 at 00:45, January 10, 2008

 Done. I've given you an extra two days to fix it up. east.718 at 00:52, January 10, 2008

How did you survive?

I am SO glad you are back Dude!!! But I have a question, how did you survive without any access to the internet for 4 months? I would be dead by now, the computer is the only way I can contact any of my friends acxept one. And he is one of only three that I have in Calgary. Not to mention I think of my computer aS MY friend... Also, if and/or when I am a wrestler; I am hoping to be in a storyline where Shne McMahon Fires me, I will then return in a diiferent persona. I was wondering if I would be able to use the name TJ Spyke for the gimmick if it ever happened. Probably the stupidest question ever isn't it. Message me back. Altenhofen (Real sig not working)

Your edit summary...

...here. I never removed the "Friday" out of "WWE Friday Night SmackDown!". Your edit summary gives the implication someone hacked my account by calling vandalism "I" apparantly made "odd", when an IP address chose to remove it. My edit removed this. I'm struggling to understand why you thought someone hacked my account. D.M.N. (talk) 18:26, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

ESRB rated games on List of Virtual Console games (North America)

I suggest you STOP re-adding them. Look at the discussions about it: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games#Ongoing_issue_regarding_ESRB_as_a_source and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games/Sources#ESRB. There is a clear consensus, you and a few others are for listing the unreliable source, while the rest are saying it's not reliable. Next time, actually check before making false claims regarding consensus. RobJ1981 (talk) 21:01, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

AWB

This is the second time I've had to notify you about your use of AWB to un-redirect a number of links on Talk:Super Nintendo Entertainment System/Archive 1; I have again reverted these changes. Please review the AWB Rules of use, in particular the parts about "Make sure you [...] have NOT changed the meaning" (this did), "Avoid making insignificant or inconsequential edits" (this was insignificant), and "Abide by all Wikipedia guidelines, policies and common practices" (this did not: see WP:R#NOTBROKEN). Anomie⚔ 12:52, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

It was not insignificant and did not change the meaning. The meaning was still the same and didn't affect the edit, all it did was fix a link. Reverting it is petty and a waste of resources and your time. There was no justification for it. TJ Spyke 21:10, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

It made no difference to the text of the page or to the final target of the link, and thus as stated at WP:R#NOTBROKEN the edit should not have been made as it is not worth even the tiny bit of resources it took. It did, however, change the meaning: when people were discussing merging and redirecting Famicom, changing their text to link to Nintendo Entertainment System changes the meaning of their statements. Again, please stop abusing AWB to make this type of edit. Anomie⚔ 21:29, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
