Revision as of 23:42, 10 June 2008 by 8bitJake (talk | contribs) (→DLC: new section)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Fair use rationale for Image:Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. TheslB (talk) 16:27, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Obama and Wright.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Obama and Wright.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Misplaced Pages takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. TheslB (talk) 16:29, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
About your question
You also blanked your talk page, where a bot had alerted you to problems with those images already. Per the missing fair use rationale and copyright problem messages (see above), your question should be asked at the Media copyright questions page. TheslB (talk) 19:22, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please ask your image-related questions at the Media copyright questions page. TheslB (talk) 19:47, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please review the answer to your question about the speedy deletion. The tag removal was premature (and lacked an edit summary, see section below). TheslB (talk) 03:16, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).
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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" 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. BJBot (talk) 12:09, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Assume good faith & civility
Hi, Tallicfan20. I noticed you added the following comment to my user talk page and then removed it:
Don't think your obvious pro-Obama bias is hidden. It is obvious you love the guy, and you are nothing but an apologist. Tallicfan20 (talk) 02:14, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Please remember to assume good faith and be civil in your dealings with other editors on Misplaced Pages. I disagree with your assessment of my politics and my biases, and hope that you will think about your own and how they may be influencing your perception of our interaction. In the future, please do not comment like the above. It does not help facilitate the spirit of harmonious editing that should exemplify our online time together. Thank you for your cooperation.

Jeremiah Wright
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Jeremiah Wright. 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. Grsz 02:18, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
And this edit clearly shows you don't know what WP:MEAT means, either. Please read up, rather than edit warring to make your point. Grsz 02:42, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
US elections maps
I reverted your edits because your images, even the PNG's but especially your JPEG's, are of poor quality. SteveSims (talk) 07:56, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Some of them were JPEG's, like this one. The PNG's retain the original coloring around the text and state borders. So, Republican (red) states have blue fragments around the electoral votes and the state names, as well as the state borders. I suggest using a graphics editor that can fill shades. A free one is GIMP, but Photoshop should to too. SteveSims (talk) 08:47, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- I re-reverted all of the JPEG's, and left the PNG's. Still, clean up the PNG's around the text and state borders. Perhaps I'll help you when I have time. SteveSims (talk) 08:53, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
