Imran Khan photo
[edit]Hello Mtahir,
I'm afraid I had to remove your photo of Imran Khan. You put "The copyright holder allows anyone to use it for any purpose" but this is not true — you can only use photos from Getty Images by paying a fee, and then only for restricted purposes.
In general, you can only use photos you took yourself, or where the photographer has explicitly given permission — unless the photo is so old that it is now out of copyright. I wish this wasn't the case, but unfortunately it's the law. If we ignore it, we are likely to get sued.
I hope this won't deter you from making other contributions to Wikipedia in future.

Fair use rationale for Image:Sou logo.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Sou logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:45, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
File source problem with File:IDCard_PK.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:IDCard_PK.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:49, 27 June 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 18:49, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]Hello Mtahir! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 277 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:
- Shahbaz Ahmed - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 04:58, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jadoo TV is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
