Orphaned fair use image (Image:Everybodyreadstheherald.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Everybodyreadstheherald.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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. -- SteinbDJ · talk · contributions 18:32, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Warning of the IP address 84.211.132.125

Why was this user warned. The only edit he has made on the page you specified was this diff, which is in no way vandalism. --TeckWiz Contribs_@ 00:11, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I must have made a mistake. In trying to think back to the incident, I must have seen this page — http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Super_Bowl_XLI&diff=104458666&oldid=104449753 — and assumed it was 84.211... which would make it my fault completely. Chaz! 01:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Copyvio

Brown Daily Herald webpage says they have "all rights reserved." They seem to own the copyrights here. One of the files is just a scan from the paper, a clear copyvio, there is no possible way the Brown Daily Herald releases their newspaper under CC. You can contest this if you'd like, but if you decide to I will have to IfD all four of these. IvoShandor 07:02, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Please do not upload copyrighted images from the Brown Daily Herald

I examined the web site of the Brown Daily Herald, and all pages bear the footer, "Copyright 2007 by The Brown Daily Herald, Inc. All rights reserved." I looked at several contact and information pages, and found nothing that indicated that any content of the newspaper, including images, was released under a Creative Commons license. We cannot use this content in Misplaced Pages. I deleted the four images as copyright violations under the criteria for speedy deletion.

Please do not upload any further copyrighted material from the Herald or other publications except with express release of the material under an accceptable free license by a person authorized to do so, or under Misplaced Pages's fair use policy. Continuing to knowingly upload copyrighted material will lead to your being blocked from editing. Thank you, --MCB 22:49, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
