User talk:Wlkernan

Welcome!

Hi Wlkernan, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Editing tutorial, learn to have fun with Wikipedia.

Picture tutorial, instructions on uploading images.

How to write a great article, to make it an featured article status.

Manual of Style, how articles should be written.

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.

Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.

Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.

Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.

Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)

Image copyright tags

Thanks for uploading Image:Pope-paul-vi-03.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag.

Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you.

Thanks so much, 10qwerty 05:24, 15 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please add in details of the copyright status of the pictures you are adding on. We may be able to use them under fair use but only if we know where they came from, when and what their status is. Otherwise, if we can't establish their copyright status they will all have to deleted, lest Wikipedia be sued for breach of copyright. FearÉIREANN^(talk) 02:36, 16 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Please also do the same thing for Image:John-ohart-wsig.jpg. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 06:52, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Pope-john-paul-ii-01.jpg has been added to Wikipedia:Copyright problems. I have verified that the image is subject to copyright and that the applicable rights are owned by Gerffert (US), distributors of holy cards for Bonella in Milan. Bonella has a history of litigation to protect its copyrights. Please verify that images are free as in libre before uploading. Per Wikipedia:Fair use, a claim on fair use would be very weak considering there are perhaps thousands of public domain images of John Paul II. --Mm35173 20:16, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Great Images

The two new images uploaded on Margret Thatcher's page are very good and suit the article well.User:Right Honrable

Margaret Thatcher image tags needed

Could you please add tags to them though, lest they be deleted. Thanks ♪ Craigy ♫ 14:54, May 21, 2005 (UTC)

Information needed or all your images will have to be deleted

Wklernan, you have been asked repeatedly to clarify the origins of your images. It isn't a minor point. Unless Wikipedia knows we have a legal right use them we will have to delete them. The images we can use are strictly governed by law. Unless you give information straight away on the origins of these images, all the images you have added which lack information on origins will be listed for deletion and deleted from articles. Everyone agreed that the images are great, but unless we know where they come from, especially has none of your images have any information, the presumption may be made that all are unusable because of copyright problems. Please give people in the information they and Wikipedia requires to ensure that images are not deleted. FearÉIREANN^(talk) 21:45, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Pope-pius-x-04.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Pope-pius-x-04.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in its not being deleted. Thank you. —MetsBot 19:14, 9 December 2006 (UTC) Thuresson 21:34, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have recently viewed your picture uploade, Image:Pope-pius-x-01.jpg, and wanted to tell you that if you are Catholic (as I suspect, but there's equal chance I'm wrong) you can add the "Roman Catholic Wikipedians" category to your user page. Thank you, Choooserr

Image Tagging Image:Charles-garter-robes.jpg

This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Charles-garter-robes.jpg. 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 Wikipedia (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 {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia 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. --OrphanBot 10:14, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
