Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ziferblat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pay-as-you-go (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.

Information icon Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Li-Fi, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Dl2000 (talk) 21:28, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks your attention watching the article. Well, it not was a vandalism, was a real and little contribution, check the diff; your reversion also does not appear constructive, you can put back the template... But I understand the point, and oppened a section at discussion. --Krauss (talk) 22:08, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Software

Tip: In English "software" is a mass noun. Like "hardware", "wetware", "humankind", it has no plural. You want a list of software that supports the encoding, not "softwares that support ..." -- Elphion (talk) 17:41, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:UnicodeGrow2010.png

Thanks for uploading File:UnicodeGrow2010.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:30, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:UnicodeGrow2010.png

⚠
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:UnicodeGrow2010.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 11:01, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, you checked the replacement, it is ok (and old can be deleted) --Krauss (talk) 20:13, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Analogical models

Krauss, I know you mean well, but you cannot copy text from a source word-for-word, or even a close paraphrase. You must write something original in your own words. I have reverted your addition to Analogical models as a copyright infringement. The image is also copied from the same source and will have to be deleted on Commons. You must not claim as your own work images you have copied from books, even if you have done some digital processing on them. There is a copyright notice on page 1 of the source. You have not complied with that notice at all, and in any case, even if you had, it is not a Wikipedia compatible licence. SpinningSpark 08:32, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry the big caption, was a "work in progress"... Thanks, corrected! About the image (also changed it in the correction), is from a "free for Web" book (I show link and source), and a 1956 work... But, yes, there are some risk, I am testing the Commons view about it. --Krauss (talk) 10:08, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You cannot use non-free copyrighted material even in a "work in progress". The licence on the web book is not compatible with Wikipedia's image policy. The licence must allow reuse for any purpose, including commercial to be compatible with our policy. The licence of this book restricts reuse to not-for-profit educational uses which is clearly not acceptable. It also requires attribution with a given form of words, which is compatible with our policy but clearly you did not comply with it as you claimed the work as your own. I don't know how you are going about "testing" Commons view, but their reaction was to delete it. The licence requirements on Commons are even more stringent than they are on Wikipedia. Simply put, you cannot do this sort of thing. SpinningSpark 14:49, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I need "test" because not understand that dozens of "US-variants of copyrigth"... How can a work to be used "for free at Web" but not "for free in the Wikipedia"? ... Ok, if I want to understand, what you suggest to point as "uploaded copyright"? See same img(page), other same img. --Krauss (talk) 16:10, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It does not matter who else is using the image. It does not even matter whether or not they are using it legally. On Wikipedia, you must comply with the legal requirements. But you must also comply with Wikipedia's policies. These are two different things, you have to do both. The legal requirement is that you must licence the image on Wikipedia in the way that the licence holder has specified (if they allow you to use it at all). Wikipedia policy is that material on Wikipedia must be freely reusable by others for any purpose. Licences that say non-commercial only, educational only, or Wikipedia only are preventing this free reuse by anyone, so we don't allow them. There are some exceptions in very limited circumstances for fair use but they don't apply in this case. SpinningSpark 16:41, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I agree... Only a comment about the first img: Johns Hopkins University (the owner of http://altweb.jhsph.edu/sebin/n/t/fig5.jpg) is not a typical "pirat company" (!)... I thing there are some ignorance and exaggeration about US-copyrigth-infringence. --Krauss (talk) 17:34, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Can I vectorize and colourize it, for accpetance in Wikipedia as my "adapted work" (citating the source of inspiration)?
No, it's not acceptable no matter how much you process it. Let me say it again, it is irrelevant who else is using the image. That isn't going to make the slightest difference. SpinningSpark 18:54, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks (!). It was good to reinforce, good to know limits... To not waste my time trying that kind of thing. --Krauss (talk) 19:29, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
