==Utilizing a revert tool over good faith edits==
Greetings, this is a polite warning to you to never utilize a revert tool over good faiths edits as you did . Revert tools are to be used to revert blatant vandalism. Using a revert tool in such a manner is not taken lightly and editors have been blocked in the past for such behavior. Thanks. ''(]])'' 04:07, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Courtney Simpson and Alexis Malone images

Please leave the images found on Wikicommons on the pages. As mentioned on the Misplaced Pages:Copyrights page:

It is preferred that these be obtained under the most free (libre) license (such as the GFDL or public domain) practical. In cases where no such images/sounds are currently available, then fair use images are acceptable (until such time as free images become available).

In both cases, the images on the page are from lukeisback.com, and both are licensed under the Creative Commons regime. The images you contributed are only tagged as fair use. Free trumps fair in this instance. Tabercil 01:18, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Courtney Simpson Throated 4 (cropped).jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Courtney Simpson Throated 4 (cropped).jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Misplaced Pages and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Tabercil 20:45, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Alexis Malone Stick It in My Face! 2.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Alexis Malone Stick It in My Face! 2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Misplaced Pages and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Image change

Please do not remove content from Misplaced Pages. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Tabercil 00:50, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to remove content from pages, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages.

Please stop. Your continued reverts to a fair use pic is not appropriate. As I stated before:
It is preferred that these be obtained under the most free (libre) license (such as the GFDL or public domain) practical. In cases where no such images/sounds are currently available, then fair use images are acceptable (until such time as free images become available). (emphasis added)
You are continuing to revert back to fair use images in cases where free use images are readily available. If you continue, you will be blocked. Tabercil 03:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)


You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from editing. Tabercil 03:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)


Mena Suvari

Could you please find a free use alternative because I'd like to see an image up for Mena Suvari (there wasn't one previously) but can't find a free use or at least fair use. I just want an attractive image put up. Mactabbed 00:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Hmm... there's this image which is tagged as Creative Commons, and has subtags that are Misplaced Pages compatible. Problem is that Mena's on the far right of the image, and that part is a bit overexposed as she's lost in the glare of the background. Probably going to take a fair bit of work in Photoshop to rescue her from that pic. If you do decide to use the image, make sure you tag the uploaded as Creative Commons, and clearly put the URL of where the original image was on Flickr. Tabercil 05:05, 16 November 2006 (UTC)


Image:Aliciaalighattisfs.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Aliciaalighattisfs.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed 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}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

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. —Angr 15:49, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
