License tagging for Image:NHyokohospital.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NHyokohospital.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. 03:07, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:NHYOKOAIR.jpg

The new source information you posted is great. Thank you for correcting the problem. Sorry you had to get blocked in the process. MECU≈talk 12:48, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What you deem "destructive" and "unhelpful" and "harmful" is actually important, valuable and recognized as critical to the project. (For proof, read the current WP:ARBCOM case where they validate this: Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Betacommand 2/Proposed decision.) All images must have a source and license. The source must confirm the license. Just because any user can upload and slap a "PD-USGov" image on it doesn't make it true, and there are many, many users that abuse or are just confused about licensing. I am correcting this. I've seen state government images applied with this tag. I've seen other country government images applies with this tag (Germany, Australia, Canada....), all very incorrect. So, instead of just fixing it myself, which would be very time intensive and possibly a waste of time since sometimes I don't know where to even start looking, I'm trying to teach editors "to fish", and not just giving them a fish. There seems to be a whole lot of lack of WP:AGF going on around lately. People assume I'm (and others) trying to destroy articles and harm/ruin Wikipedia, when the absolute opposite is true. People come and attack me instead of going "Huh? I don't understand. Please help." I would, am, and have always been happy to help (even when people act like jerks to me), but most don't go to that end and just fly off the handle. "Your article" is in horrible shape when the images are in such poor shape, and you should want to correct the problem instead of fighting the messenger. I've been doing this for over a year (though not so heavily as I currently am) and it's always the same story. But Wikipedia has backed me in confirming my actions are correct (not formally, but in the implicit lack of (legitimate) complaining of my actions). I have never acted in poor form to anyone, responded to all comments, and acted politely despite rarely receiving the same. I hope you can understand where I am coming from. For example, fixing your image took about 30 seconds, yet you have taken 30 minutes (at least) in writing horrible notes to me, fighting other deletion request I have made because you now have a "vendetta" against me, when all you needed to do was spend the 30 seconds. Where is the un-constructive actions? Certainly enforcing policy is a valid task. And it's not "technically" correct, it's wholly correct. It's not jaywalking, it's theft. Taking an image and putting it on here with a "PD-USGov" image without support is potentially a copyright violation. You (I am speaking in general, not specially to any user) are taking someone's work without the legal right to do so. Would you go into an art museum and take a painting off the wall without the legal right to do so? I'm sorry this went on so long, but the complaints recently have mounted and are very frustrating, since it's a lack of understanding on the other editors end about the policy and how things work, and a lack of trying to solve the problem and more attack the messenger. I hope you can now understand the situation. Thank you for your time. MECU≈talk 12:55, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to User:MECU. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Metros (talk) 03:37, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

April 2008

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to User talk:MECU. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Sceptre ^(talk) 04:29, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how that's vandalism. I said the guy has no idea what he's talking about. I meant it. check out the data, it is relevent. MECU is flagging images that are legitimate. Jimmyjones22 (talk) 04:58, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, if you're talking about that particular edit, that was me editing my own words, so i have no idea what you are talking about. Jimmyjones22 (talk) 05:07, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for a period of 24 hours as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our policies concerning neutral point of view and biographies of living persons will not be tolerated. Metros (talk) 10:49, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is completely unfair

I didn't even start this - Admins come to wreck my article, I retaliate, call them on their shit, and I get blocked. Pity I don't have a block feature, maybe I could get you guys off of my articles and out of my talk pages. IMHO, most of you guys are just running around waving your e-peen in people's faces. Do you seriously have nothing better to do than to disrupt good articles? Sad thing is, those good images are probably getting flushed even though I put the required stuff in there - along with several other good, public images that MECU is trashing. Forget it, I don't know why I even try to post - you guys are all buddy buddy anyway. You've been reverting every conversation I've put up in my defense! My talk page (probably completely unwatched) is my only refuge. 10 bucks says you'll revert this comment, too. You guys should have a look at the censorship article.

File source problem with File:New naval hospital main entrance.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:New naval hospital main entrance.jpg. 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. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
