Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Blind Shot.JPG

Thank you for uploading File:Blind Shot.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

Outline of Gibraltar

I noticed your work on the Outline of Gibraltar. Nice.

I added a bunch more links, finding them with the following Google site-specific searches of Wikipedia:

"of" and "Gibraltar"

"in" and "Gibraltar"

"for" and "Gibraltar"

with "Gibraltar" not at the end

(You can use the wikicode for the links above as the basis for new searches - just replace "Gibraltar" with any other country or region name).

The outline is approaching completion.

The redlinks need to be bluelinked where possible. The most useful way is to create redirects leading to the material (which is usually included in a section of an article - see Wikipedia:Redirect#Redirects to page sections. That way, when the redirect pages are replaced by the actual articles, the links will already point to the right places.

Gibraltarian people

Regarding your POV revert on Gibraltar, may I alert you to the fact that the IP editor made the same change on the above article. I'm at 3 reverts so didn't want to risk a 4th as he has threatened to report me for edit warring and I didn't want to risk a block. BTW this seems to be a dynamic IP so I haven't bothered with a 3RR report. Justin talk 11:57, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Happy National day !

I've been out taking pics and observing the customs of the natives in bars --Gibnews (talk) 20:27, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

A favour

Could you please try and have a word with Imalbornoz. I'm getting more than a little irritated by his constant accusations of bias and violating neutrality. Not to mention his obsessively reverting anytime someone changes his edits. Its also irritating when you take the time to explain in talk why you've done something only for him to question you about it. It seems obvious he isn't reading talk. Thanks.

Napier of Magdala Battery

Hi Gibmetal77, Nice work on the battery, esp. the pics.

Do you by any chance have any photos of Jyske Bank (Gibraltar), or even better its predecessor Banco Galliano? I haven't been able to find anything.

Regards, Acad Ronin (talk) 21:01, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi Gibmetal77, I bought the book via a friend in the UK and used it to work up the article on the bank. I thought of scanning but didn't see much of real interest, and was concerned about copyright. If you do pass through Gib and can take a photo that would be ideal. Unfortunately, currently there is nothing on the horizon that would take me through there.

Orphaned non-free image (File:Estopa logo.png)

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Estopa logo.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 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 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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aspects (talk) 21:52, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
