Image Tagging Image:Yurika.gif

This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Yurika.gif. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Misplaced Pages (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Technically, it's been over seven days and this image, along with Image:Kyosuke.gif, Image:HinataWakaba.gif, Image:Chairperson.gif, and Image:Batsu.gif, could all be deleted immediately, but since they are used in article I'm going to hope you can figure out what website or wherever you got those images from. Otherwise, they will be deleted within a week. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:41, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

So far, I've only given the source and fair use justification for Image:Yurika.gif; the website where I got the other images is down and I can't give a source yet, although the fair use justification is similar for them as well. Would you be able to wait until I can access the source of the other images? NeoChaosX 20:03, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for finding that website so fast. It looks like the website has all the images linked on the top, if that's where you got them from. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 20:07, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

I could put that site's pages as the source of the rest of the images (exact same images, in fact), but it's not the site where I found them. I will use it, however, if the original site I got the images from doesn't get back online soon. NeoChaosX 00:26, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Since it's all Capcom's rights anyways at the end of the day, that's fine with me. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:07, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey

Hey, thought you might be interested in a Wikiproject involving anime. Give me a call if you want.

Removing NHL logos on team pages

Comment moved from my Talk page prior to archiving -- wanted to be sure you saw my response.

Okay, I understand why the little versions of NHL team logos were removed from season and draft pages. However, I don't understand why you're removing the logo from pages about the teams themselves. Since they are on the page of the team they're illustrating, I don't see how having those images on the team pages would be a violation of Misplaced Pages policy. Could you explain how it is a violation of policy in that case? - NeoChaosX 23:28, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

The large logo is acceptable under fair use in order to illustrate the team's logo. However, the small logos are not essential to identify the team in question and are instead just used decoratively; therefore, the images are not usable per fair use rules. It's pretty straightforward when you know the law, but a lot of people don't understand fair use and when it does and does not apply. In this case, the logo can only be used if no acceptable non-copyrighted alternative exists and if its use is essential in illustrating the subject in question (and other criteria, but those are the big ones here) and here the repeated use of the small logo serves no purpose other than ornamentation, even if it is on the team's article page. ⇒ B.Rossow _contr ], ], ] @ 23:43 (UTC)

Ah, thanks. I get it now. NeoChaosX 02:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
