Please do not copy information from commercial websites, as you did on Monte Crisio Gold Mine. I have deleted the article because it was copyrighted text. If you wish to summarize the information, feel free to do so, but please do not just copy it. --Spangineeres (háblame) 15:37, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. I've recreated the article, and moved it to Monte Cristo Gold Mine. Have a good one! --Spangineeres (háblame) 15:37, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
This is from my website Scripophily.com.
Best Regards,
Bob —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ootsark (talk • contribs)

We have no proof that you are Bob Kerstein. If you are Bob Kerstein you should not be creating an article about youself here - see WP:AUTO and wait until someone else writes a bio about you.

Regarding Jacob Little (and possibly other copies from scipophily), the best way to prove permission is to cause a message to appear on the scripophily website (as discretely as you like) saying "Wikipedia has permission to use this material". Then place a link to that message on the talk page of every article copied. See wikipedia:confirmation of permission.

And if you want your articles to stick, you will not just do idle copy-and-pastes, you will turn the articles into proper Wikipedia articles - like wikifying and giving Jacob Little's dates! And always sign talk page entries with ~~~~. -- RHaworth 05:59, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


The Jacob Little page may be from your website, but the text on your website is copied directly from the book "Toward Rational Exuberance" by B. Mark Smith. See [1]. That's why the copyvio notice has been placed. NawlinWiki 15:30, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright issue with Mary field[edit]

Hello. Concerning your contribution, Mary field, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a direct copy from http://www.maryfield.us/maryfield.pdf. As a copyright violation, Mary field appears to qualify for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. Mary field has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. If the source is a credible one, please consider rewriting the content and citing the source.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GFDL, you can comment to that effect on Talk:Mary field. If the article has already been deleted, but you have a proper release, you can reenter the content at Mary field, after describing the release on the talk page. However, you may want to consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you, and please feel free to continue contributing to Wikipedia.

Please do not recreate deleted material that violates copyright. It just makes more work for others to clean up. If you continue to do so you may be blocked from editing. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 20:57, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have blocked you temporarily for repeatedly recreating the page. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 20:57, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Maryfielddannykaye.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Maryfielddannykaye.jpg. 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

May 2008[edit]

Hi, the recent edit you made to Bob has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. treelo talk 09:45, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jacob little[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Jacob little, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://thehistorybox.com/ny_city/nycity_j_little_bear_wall_st_article1054a.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and 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 and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Speedy deletion of Jacob little[edit]

A tag has been placed on Jacob little requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Image permission problem with Image:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg[edit]

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL 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 did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image 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 in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image 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 uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 16:19, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the tag. Since the image is from the 1890s it is in the public domain and no permissoin is required.   Will Beback  talk  16:34, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NowCommons: File:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg[edit]

File:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Montecristogoldmine1890.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 20:01, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:MaryFieldandRitaHayworth.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:MaryFieldandRitaHayworth.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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:28, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • 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.
