The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 Wikipedia (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 Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Musclemuseumep.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Musclemuseumep.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

When you want to change the title of a page, please use the "move" tool (next to the "history" tab), as this keeps the edit history intact, and would (theoretically) allow a new title at the old page name. No harm was done since you were the only contributor to the old page, but it might cause a bit of a mess in future!

The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), For more information on using images, see the following pages: This is an automated notice by MifterBot.

However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

You could upload your photos to Wikimedia Commons instead of straight to Wikipedia, so that they could be used on all the different language versions of Wikipedia, and also some other projects. For example it would allow your photos to be used on the French language article for Newcastle University, ect. You also don't need to add the main Newcastle University category to the building articles, as the Buildings at Newcastle University category is a subcategory of the Newcastle University category. Anyways, keep up the good work. :) --TubularWorld (talk) 15:13, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Nuttah (talk) 14:04, 16 November 2008 (UTC) MergerA quick glance at the article and I concur, merging Austin & Pickersgill into A&P looks like the best of all worlds. --Richhoncho (talk) 01:10, 17 November 2008 (UTC) On the contrary, the merger is the worst of all worlds as it now completely misrepresents the history of what is now "A&P Group". In an A&P Group context the whole of the corporate history is either wrong or irrelevant (ie relates to Austin & Pickersgill). Although it says little in detail on A&P Group's website about it's history, what it does say - "Originally founded as a centre of expertise in shipyard design and construction in 1971" - is a good starting point. I'll suggest a demerger on the page and am happy to attempt to disentangle the corporate history section (the rest splits neatly as currently edited).

I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

Speedy deletion of Template:Livery CompanyA tag has been placed on Template:Livery Company requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

It says at File:Pirate Flag of HMS Conqueror.svg on Commons that you're the copyright holder of this work (although it was uploaded here by a different person, User:EuTuga). How did this come to be? Even if you made the flag (in which case the "This user is 22 years old" userbox on your userpage is wrong), wouldn't it be under Crown copyright or something? It must have been made by a crewman, I think. A faithful reproduction of the original (which I assume this is, and if not we shouldn't be using it at all) wouldn't create a new copyright, I'm pretty sure.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. — JJMC89 (T·C) 06:58, 6 September 2019 (UTC) ArbCom 2019 election voter messageYour submission at Articles for creation: Straight-10 engine (September 20) Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed!

ArbCom 2020 Elections voter messageNon-free rationale for File:Arrowhead-concept-for-Type-31e-Frigate.jpgThanks for uploading or contributing to File:Arrowhead-concept-for-Type-31e-Frigate.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 in section F6 of the 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.

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.
