The source was claimed to be from 1908 and it looks like an accurate description to me. Isn't this quite enough for it not to be considered a copyright violation?

Hello, I was wondering if you could close this old backlogged deletion review. Which has been completely lost in the archives and it doesn't look like anyone else is going to comment on it.Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jared Yates. Retiono Virginian 14:48, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi there. :-) I've seen you're replacing the images in Same-sex marriage in Spain by the ones in Commons. Just so you know, originally the images were placed (with permission) in the English Wikipedia and later added (by a friend of mine who has an account there) to Commons so they'd be available on the Wikipedias of other languages. You're free to keep replacing them here if you want, but there's really not much point. :-) Just thought I'd let you know. Cheers! Raystorm 17:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Why did you delete Image:WiliamsTowerFromStreet.jpg. It has the appropriate tag. The tag was added more than 7 days ago. I restored the deleted image. Postoak 18:50, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

hi! i'm new to wikipedia especially in uploading images. i can't make it right and it is always deleted. i know what a copyright is but the instructions in wikipedia help is a little bit difficult for me to understand (given that i'm just contributing and don't have much time to read and understand word-for-word and everything). is there any other way i could post a university's logo without violating any wikipedia conditions? is there somebody who could explain to me in simple english how to post an image without being deleted? i really do hope you could help me. thanks in advance!
It's very kind of you to archive those, but I think Voice of All has a bot which does it automatically after 24h or so. Regards — Dan | talk 04:39, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
If you are not a bot, please read the message at the top of User talk:Emax. It was at the bottom, too, but some people still posted below it (perhaps I should make it blink and scream...). Thank you, -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 22:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
WP:NOT does not say that wikipedia should not be a news website. It clearly states in seciton 6: "Wikipedia should not offer first-hand news reports on breaking stories. Wikipedia is not a primary source. However, our sister project Wikinews does exactly that, and is intended to be a primary source. Wikipedia does have many encyclopedia articles on topics of historical significance that are currently in the news, and can be updated with recent verified information."
The Portal:Current events/Canada is not a primary source as per the definition of secondary source. It fits in all the other history / current events articles like many of the trial articles and world political articles. Mkdwtalk 13:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Greetings! A recent change has been made in the clerking system at Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser. There are no longer any obstacles to editors who wish to help out in this areas, as the standby list has now been deprecated. You were listed as a volunteer on the standby list before it was deprecated. If you are still interested in helping out in this area, please:
I am not involved with the checkuser system. I am acting only to inform you of this change. Thank you. --Durin 14:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Hello Shyam, I noticed you've replaced some WP images with Commons images. Is it policy to ensure that the Commons images are at least as good in quality (e.g. resolution) as the ones on WP? Appleseed (Talk) 18:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Good afternoon (GMT time); I noticed you recently alphabatised the list of clerks. I also done the same, but this was reverted by Daniel.Bryant. Just giving you the heads up, in case the same happens to you. I personally think alphabetical order is an improvement over the "chronological" order, which seems to indicate superiority rather than anything else. At the end of the day, Daniel was Head Clerk, before the position was retired but nevertheless, I don't see how our improvements can hinder the actual clerking.
Kind regards,
anthonycfc [talk] 15:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Your name is still listed at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Volunteers. The department is heavily backlogged with student's requests for coaches, and we need your help!
Note that the instructions may have changed since the last time you checked, and the department now follows a self-help process...
If you don't currently have a student, or if you believe you can handle another one, please select a student from the request list at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests and contact them. See the instructions on Wikipedia:Admin coaching. Good luck.
If you are no longer available to coach, , please remove yourself from the volunteers list.
Thank you.

Hi Shyam. I've nominated Category:Richard Dawkins Award winners for deletion, as there has recently been a move at CFD to stop categorizing people by the awards they've won. The category page links to the CFD where you can comment if you like. Later, — coelacan — 06:34, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Ikiroid's administration request has now been started. I believe you have said you will co-nom. Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Ikiroid_2. Thanks, Seivad 17:03, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
On March 4, you deleted Special:Undelete/Image:Paul_bonaire.jpg, noting that it was now on the Commons. That's great, but it had a different name on the commons, so for a month, the Alexandra Paul article was sitting with a red link instead of an image. I fixed it, but wanted to note it for next time. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 14:27, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Special note to spamlist users: Apologies for the formatting issues in previous issues. This only recently became a problem due to a change in HTML Tidy; however, I am to blame on this issue. Sorry, and all messages from this one forward should be fine (I hope!) -Ral315

Thanks for uploading Image:Ambareesh.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
((Replaceable fair use disputed))
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Abu badali (talk) 17:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

As mentioned in Wikiproject India newsletter of March 2007, the weekly collaboration of the Indian wikiproject has fallen from its once high feats. This message is to request the users to visit the collaboration page and help rejuvenate it.
The present collaboration of the week is Religion in India. Please go through the talk page of the article to see the proposed changes in the article. Regards.--Dwaipayan (talk) 18:44, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I have re-submitted Portal:China to WP:FPOC. A lot of work have been contributed to this portal, but the previous nomination ended up receiving few final attentions. I wonder if you can look at the portal again and see if your previous comments were addressed, and of course, and further comments that should be addressed. Thank you so much!

Just in case you aren't aware, a policy was recently implemented by the Wikimedia Foundation, regarding access to nonpublic data (see [3]) Please note if you do not comply with these rules you should remove yourself from OTRS volunteering where your name is listed. Otherwise, please ignore this message :) Kind regards, Majorly (hot!) 17:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Shyam. An automated process has found and removed a fair use image used in your userspace. The image (Image:1915 Dance by Rodchenko.jpg) was found at the following location: User talk:Shyam/Archive4. This image was removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image was replaced with Image:Example.jpg, so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image to replace it with. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 23:04, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Not that it's worthwhile to bring up at DRV, but what on earth would have made you think there was consensus to delete? Looking at the history, there was 2 users for "keep", 2 for "remove", and one comment with the edit summary "chit chat": that's not a clear consensus. What do you think? ⇒ SWATJester Denny Crane. 10:28, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
