You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Vedas. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Abecedare (talk) 16:35, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Legal threat
Per our policy, stating that you will "invite prosecution" upon the modification of an image is a blockable sanction, in which your editing privileges can be indefinitely revoked. The offending text can be found at File:Aryavarta wiki.jpg. It is highly suggested that you revoke those comments, and respond at WP:ANI#Threat to prosecute if an image is modified. seicer | talk | contribs 16:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- The image is watermarked, and our guidelines at WP:IUP say "user-created images should not be watermarked, distorted, have any credits in the image itself or anything else that would hamper their free use". It is also original research - see WP:OR and I've already removed it from an article (after you reinstated it after another editor removed it). Dougweller (talk) 16:44, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
File:Aryavarta wiki.jpg listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Aryavarta wiki.jpg, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Files for deletion.

Thank you. seicer | talk | contribs 16:40, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Do not delete
File:Name.ext listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Name.ext, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion 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 it not being deleted. Thank you. RussellSpence (talk) 16:55, 17 July 2009 (UTC) The modification clause was removed based on advice from other members. However, this is not original research. In fact this is based on the latest genetics research of SE Asian population and human migrations, as well as latest research on the Indus Script. All these topics are well discussed and settled in Misplaced Pages itself. Please do not delete this.
- The legal threat is still there, and by adding the copywright watermark you've breached our Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License. Dougweller (talk) 17:24, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- It's very simple; anything you contribute to Misplaced Pages must be released under the terms of the Creative Commons ShareAlike license and the GNU Free Documentation License. In a nutshell, this means that you release your contributions to be used by anyone for any reason with any modification they like, so long as they credit you as the author of the original. You may not wish to release your research, maps, or what have you, if you are uncomfortable with these conditions. Thatcher 01:57, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

WP:OR and WP:RS as well as WP:Verify apply to images as well as text. Since we cannot use Misplaced Pages articles as sources for other Misplaced Pages articles, we clearly cannot use them for images. Captions also need to pass the same criteria.
