Non-free rationale for File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 19:37, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

August 2014[edit]

Information icon Please do not remove file deletion tags from file description pages on Wikipedia, as you did to File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 22:59, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:33, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Provided-by-museums-of.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:34, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Kitale Museum featured s.jpg[edit]

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Kitale Museum featured s.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.

Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:34, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Normally you'd get an automated message telling you that your draft article had been approved, but since it was a new draft of an existing article, the 'normal' method didn't work. After a bit of cleaning work, and a bit of fiddling by an administrator, you draft has been 'approved' and merged on top of the editing stub article, while keeping the coordinates, categories, and such from the existing one.

In the future, if you are working on something that is already an existing article, you can just edit what already exists in the article space. The articles for creation process (that you submitted your article to) is really only intended for new articles that don't already exist.

No harm done in doing it this way, it wasn't much work to fix, just letting you know that it was 'approved' and has been published. Thanks, and hope you get a good grade. Reventtalk 09:39, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
