License tagging for Image:Jnicc logo.gif

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Jnicc logo.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 19:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

responsibility to react

edit

Hi -- I just undid your edit in responsibility to protect, where you had changed "responsibility to react" to "responsibility to respond". Where did you find this term? The literature I know (including the ICISS report) uses "responsibility to react". Joriki (talk) 21:59, 10 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi, sorry for the very delayed response. I saw the term used by UN Secretary General Ban-Kimun in his speech on 15 July2008 at the Berlin conference on Responsible Sovereignty: International Cooperation for a Changed World (see SG/SM/11701). I thought the term was authentic--though probably 'diplomatically' chosen. But you're probably right so I thank you for undoing it. Thanks!--Etranger (talk) 11:01, 30 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
 

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of United Nations Convention on Environmental Modification, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.atomicarchive.com/Treaties/Treaty12.shtml.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Hi. :) Since you have not been back in a couple of weeks, I just wanted to be sure that you were aware that United Nations text is not public domain. It would be great if they would make it so, but they have not chosen to do so. If you click the "copyright" status at the bottom of http://www.unog.ch/enmod, you'll see "Copyright © United Nations 2009". Their terms explicitly forbid non-commercial use and modification, which is not compatible with Wikipedia in any language:

The United Nations grants permission to Users to visit the Site and to download and copy the information, documents and materials (collectively, “Materials”) from the Site for the User’s personal, non-commercial use, without any right to resell or redistribute them or to compile or create derivative works therefrom, subject to the terms and conditions outlined below, and also subject to more specific restrictions that may apply to specific Material within this Site.

See wmf:Terms of Use and WP:COMPLIC. This particular article has been modified to remove close paraphrasing from the UN source. If you've copied content from the UN before, please rewrite it so that we are in line with our copyright policies. Thanks! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:52, 4 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited United Nations Convention on Environmental Modification, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Convention (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.

File permission problem with File:Jnicc logo.gif

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Jnicc logo.gif. 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 08:00, 13 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
