IM Arms and related

Please do not create extremely short articles without sufficient context. If they don't include sufficient information for the reader, they may be deleted. If not enough information is available for a longer article, you'd probably be better off merging the pages. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 11:29, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Sturmgewehr 57 Chile.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Sturmgewehr 57 Chile.JPG. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. 15:11, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:FN38.JPG

Thank you for uploading Image:FN38.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Megapixie 04:25, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Other images with problems

All of the images you've uploaded also have problems - i.e. no license. You appear to have found all of them by searching using google. Our image upload page makes it very clear that:

Please note: Most images on the internet are copyrighted under terms intended to prevent them from being freely used on other sites, making it inappropriate and/or illegal to upload them to Misplaced Pages.

I will tag all of these images to have them deleted. Please review our Image use policy before uploading any more images.

If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Image upload problems

Dave - the problem is that the images are unlikely to be suitable for wikipedia for copyright reasons. The best thing that you could do is go to Special:Upload and read EVERYTHING linked in the blue box at the top of the page (in particular WP:IUP and WP:UPIMAGE). Misplaced Pages is not a forum - you cannot upload images you find randomly on the internet without having them deleted fairly quickly. Megapixie 23:08, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
