Melbourne photos

[edit]

Hi Pyroslim, nice photos of Melbourne. There has been some discussion about the photos on the Melbourne article on the talk page. There really needs to be a rationalisation of the photos in the article. I have removed the photos temporarily until some rationalisation takes place. Feel free to be bold and remove some other photos if you wish to add yours back in. Also, when writing captions for your photos, try and keep a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia not a travel guide. Welcome again and I hope you stick around. -- Mattinbgn\talk 11:05, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Eureka Sunset from Southbank.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Eureka Sunset from Southbank.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --OrphanBot 11:06, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Melbourne

[edit]

Hi Pyroslim. If you are going to add images to the Melbourne article, please take some of the existing ones from the article. There are too many images in the article and it obscures some templates in some screen resolutions and generally looks untidy. Feel free to join the discussion on the article talk page about appropriate images. I would suggest that we only need one photo of the CBD, at night or otherwise.

Also, you may wish to think about uploading your photos to Wikimedia Commons. You can still use the images in Wikipedia but it also makes them available for use for other Wikimedia projects such as Wikipedia in other languages. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 05:25, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to follow up, there is a gallery at Commons for Melbourne - see commons:Melbourne. It is also linked to from the Melbourne article in Wikipedia and the Wikipedia in other languages. -- Mattinbgn\talk 05:29, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You did too, my apologies. Yes, it is a much better photo. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 06:02, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Eureka Sunset from Southbank.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Eureka Sunset from Southbank.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 00:24, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
