File copyright problem with File:Fire Alarm On Wall.JPG

Thank you for uploading File:Fire Alarm On Wall.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 04:46, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree File:PlantersAlmonds.JPG

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:PlantersAlmonds.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Inukshuk.JPG

A tag has been placed on File:Inukshuk.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Major problem: whose account is this?

I see a lot of files uploaded that are annotated:

Source = I (NAME) created this work entirely by myself.

Author = NAME

but there are many different NAMEs used over the course of the upload history for this wikipedia account. Is this account shared by the multiple NAME users? That is strictly forbidden by site policy (it's not even allowed to have more than one teacher share an account, let alone have a single account that all students in a class use). Or is there one teacher uploading files for al the NAME students? That makes for some difficult copyright questions--uploader is granting copyright release, but without evidence that the presumed copyright holders (the students) have actually released them that way. Please advise what the situation is so that we can make sure wikipedia copyright policies are being followed here. DMacks (talk) 05:00, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Aquafina bottle.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Aquafina bottle.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. Kelly ^hi! 17:58, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Which state is this Dryden High School mentioned in your pic? There are at least eight different Drydens in the United States and Canada, and not surprisingly, a Google search indicates that there are high schools in more than one of them. Nightscream (talk) 18:35, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
