Please don't force image sizing.

I enjoy seeing the Audubon images that you haver added to Wikipedia but you should not force the image size (i.e., ###px). Have a look here for the reasons why. Cheers. Dger (talk) 20:45, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Problems with upload of File:Arms of Iqaluit, Nunavut.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Arms of Iqaluit, Nunavut.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

File permission problem with File:King Letsie III 42nd birthday.png

Thanks for uploading File:King Letsie III 42nd birthday.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 16:33, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:King Letsie III 42nd birthday.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:King Letsie III 42nd birthday.png. 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. Stefan2 (talk) 13:40, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Crest of the Reformed Church in Amercia.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Crest of the Reformed Church in Amercia.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:05, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Charles XII of Sweden, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Latinized (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

US navy versions of Anthems

Would be best not to spam bad American version of anthems all over. This has been discussed before and many people take great offence to having a bad American version of anthems all over. Would be best to find local approved version. See Template talk:Infobox country#RFC: Audio links to national anthems -- Moxy (talk) 02:50, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps I should explain in more detail - Lets talk about Royal Anthems be it a link or audio file as many articles have talked about this before in great detail (for example see Talk:Australia/Archive 17#Request For Comment). Would be best to talk about it first because its a contentious edit to many (as are many non-native versions of anthems). There is no restrictions on a link or a file nor are they required in an articles infobox. So what this means is concusses should be reached at each article as per WP:INFOBOXUSE over mass change to multiple articles. I hope this explains things better because your good faith edits are welcomed. -- Moxy (talk) 00:38, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi there. I haven't bothered to inspect your recent edits to this page, but I would like to offer a word of caution. Since you were asked to discuss before making many/major edits, and this article is in the middle of a contentious RM discussion with people getting irritated (with you at the center of it all), it might be a good idea to self-revert your recent changes, back off from this article for now, and open up a discussion of what you'd like to change. Otherwise you might find yourself running afoul of some obscure rule that could be used to "nab" you and get you blocked for disruption. Obviously you can feel free to ignore me, and I have no idea who's senior between the two of us, but please at least consider the advice. (And thank you for the barnstar!)
