License tagging for Image:Sanchez.rick.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Sanchez.rick.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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:

Your change to the page Fidel Castro was determined to be unhelpful, and has been removed. Please use the sandbox for any tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. Thanks. If you feel that the edit I reverted should not have been reverted, please contact me. --Chris (talk) 17:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Unspecified source for Image:Main-castro.jpg
[edit]![]() |
This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:Main-castro.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Note that any unsourced and untagged images may 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. (ESkog)(Talk) 02:34, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Blocked for WP:3RR in Fidel Castro Jaranda wat's sup 02:06, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Well I think you were describing yourself demifour. I am not even a supporter of Castro, I just think even less of those Gringo Cubans who live in the States and still call themselves Cubans and then go around hating. Insulting people in an idiotic way will merely make people think the Cuban traitors are exactly that, people without a moral stance. My moral stance is a united Latin America without it being ruled by the US and its traitorous lackeys, whom you appear to support and be one of (from the look of the ip based edit to your user pasge you are a San Francisco based American). IMO showing l;ack of respect to Castro is showing a lack of respect to Cuba, hence my use of the word traitorous to describe you and your ilk. TV Genius 22:21, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
You ask what I would expect people like your family to do given the problems with Castro in Cuba. The answer is I would have expected you and the other Cubans to have gone anywhere in the world other than the US and to have bitterly opposed the trade embargo which has wrecked the Caribbean economy regardless of whether you are in the States or not. Insulting me may make you feel better but please desist the temptation to let off steam by being vulgar. Qué grosero! TV Genius 04:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
Blocked for incivility

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for disrupting Wikipedia by making personal attacks. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires.
I've blocked you for 3 hours for incivility on the Fidel Castro talk page ([1] among others) I note that you're revert warring as well, and you've been warned about that (and blocked in the past) too. I suggest you not revert war, and spend some time reviewing WP:CIVIL. ++Lar: t/c 00:39, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Sanchezsnl.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Sanchezsnl.jpg. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
