More information needed about File:Rhsclogo.png

edit

Hello, Samkange!

It was really helpful of you to you to upload File:Rhsclogo.png. However, we need to properly format the image license information in order to keep and use new images.

If you can edit the description and add one of these templates, that would be great. If you're not sure how or would like some help, please ask us at the media copyright questions page and we'll be happy to assist you.

Thanks again! --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 02:07, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Rhsclogo.png. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition

edit

Hi Samkange, I got your message about the Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition page. What will help the most to improve the article and ensure it is inline with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines is to add more reliable secondary sources. Right now it seems like the only sources are from the organization's website. The secondary sources are needed to establish notability. Make sure that the content and tone are not promoting the organization but rather, describing the significant aspects of it with a neutral point of view. I hope this helps. Best of luck to you and let me know if you have any more questions. AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 02:03, 17 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

You didn't have to contact me about it (but I don't mind at all); if you fix the problems then there's no problem with you removing the tags. You added more to the references so you can definitely remove the 'bare urls' tag. Although you could still improve the citations by using the cite web template. It's easier though to just click 'Cite' on the editing toolbar while you're editing and choose 'cite web' from the dropdown menu. It gives you a box to fill in all of the categories like title, url, publisher, author, access date, etc.
As for the advertising tag, just do your best to make sure the article is written like an encyclopedia entry and not the website for the organization. It should be stating significant information about the organization that is represented in reliable sources with a neutral point of view. If you think it does that, then feel free to remove the tag.

  Thanks for uploading File:Rhsclogo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:17, 31 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

File:Noah Howard, Alt Sax.jpg listed for discussion

Hi, and thanks for your reply in regards to this image. In a nutshell: The copyright for any photograph lies with the person that took it, unless it is a specific "work-for-hire", where a photographer is paid to take photos but the copyright is with the person giving them the job. Perhaps you know which it is in this case.
If the photographer owns the copyright, they need to send an email
If Noah owned the copyright, the copyrights will have moved onto an heir, and they will need to send an email.
A template and more information can be found here (section:Declaration of consent for all enquiries), where you just need to fill in the blanks. If you need help, I can assist, just let me know. In the process I am also moving it to commons.wikimedia.org - this is where all the free files are kept. It makes it possible for people on other language wikis to use the image too. Hope that helps & it will get sorted. Thanks Deadstar (talk) 08:47, 11 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
