Marc Benno

Hi, this article was A7'ed by you. Benno was a moderately successful solo artist in the 1970s, with a charting record in 1972 ([1]). He released a handful of albums on Polydor Records and also played with Leon Russell in the group The Asylum Choir. This is enough to meet WP:MUSIC, and I was hoping you could restore the article so I can improve it with this information. Chubbles (talk) 21:02, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Yeeees. The version I deleted (there have been 5 before that) was 2 lines long and stood no chance of survival. The best I can do for you is to restore everything as a userfied page, then you can look back at earlier versions and try to assemble a proper article. Then when it's complete you can get it moved back to article space.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:10, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Now at User:Chubbles/Marc Benno - use the page history to see the earlier versions.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:15, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Restored. This page was subject to a hell of a lot of abuse by many authors, at least a half dozen - it's almost a textbook example of Wikipedia "failing" at the hands of editors who aren't doing enough work or understanding the system properly. I wish you hadn't deleted it the first time around, when it was PRODDed for not meeting WP:MUSIC even though at the time it contained information which demonstrated that he did in fact pass the guideline. Chubbles (talk) 13:32, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
The joy of many editors all doing their own thing... Glad you have managed to sort it out. Of course, it cannot be PRODed again, so that will help give some stability.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:20, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

File:Babrasharif.jpg

Thanks for noting your web archive search for this image; I'm always hesitant to delete old PD-self images as copyvios because they might have been copied from Wikipedia, so this resolves all my questions. Curious, though: why not just delete it yourself? Talkback, please. Nyttend (talk) 02:03, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I always think it's a bit like being "judge and jury", if I spot a copyvio and delete it, and it's nice to have a second opinion - none of us are perfect, I may miss something. Also I tend to use Twinkle to add the CSD, that then tells the author what is happening (but only if I select tag, rather than delete) - otherwise the author knows nothing why the article/image was deleted - also a large string of copyvio warnings on the editor's talk page may help suggest more action is required if they keep repeating their bad ways.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the help! Just wanting to know that I've given a contradictory second opinion on File:Bedford Oct 2006 - 20.JPG — if I read the Flickr description page properly, it was either taken or uploaded to Flickr (or both) a year after the image was uploaded here. Again, if you reply here, please leave a talkback. Nyttend (talk) 20:52, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Just goes to show we are not perfect! - but something is odd, that pic is an exact match of the flickr picture - one can overlay the two pics exactly. There must be another original out there...  Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:57, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I suspect you're right; this would be far easier to understand without the dates. Do you know how to use Tineye? I've never done it. Nyttend (talk) 21:00, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
I'm using the tineye firefox add-in - http://www.tineye.com/plugin - one opens the WP page, clicks in the image (to see full size) and right mouse click "Search Image on TinEye" - TinEye result page opens in a new tab - get a list of matches with sizes, click compare under an image, and it open a sub window where you can flick between each image quickly to see the matching. NB: 50 searches per day max.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Hm, okay; if you haven't already, could you please run this image through it? I've nominated it for deletion at FFD, although if you find a third page that could be a source for both this and Flickr, please note that the image is also on Commons, so you could tag it as a copyvio there if you find a source page. Nyttend (talk) 21:33, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
I did, and it's perfect, except the flickr one has more content, the WP one is a crop.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:35, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Seeking assistance

Earlier you were insturmental in helping to change the title of an article. I think there's an issue with another article. I don't know how, or if I'm even permitted, to make the change. The article is W. Thacher Longstreth. The title should be "Thacher Longstreth", as this is how he was known. If this is not possible, then at the least, "Thacher Longstreth" should redirect to W. Thacher Longstreth, which it currently does not. Any assistance you could offer me would be appreciated. Regards. Joefromrandb (talk) 08:48, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

You could move the page - but you might find opposition. I had a quick look and there are several refs quoted that use the "W". So a move should be proposed by adding this text {{subst:RMtalk|Thacher Longstreth|Reason for move.}} to the bottom of the talk page Talk:W. Thacher Longstreth (changing the "reason for move"). Or you could create a redirect as suggested at Thacher Longstreth - just enter this text #REDIRECT [[W. Thacher Longstreth]] into the page and save.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:49, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
Well, for instance, I recently edited the Roger Waters article. Even though his name is George Waters, and that is noted in the article, the article's title is still "Roger Waters", as that's how he is known. Similarly, Councilman Longstreth did not go by "W. Thacher". He was known to the public as "Thacher Longstreth". But my main issue is that "Thacher Longstreth" does not even redirect to the article. I will attempt to follow the advice you offered, and I thank you for your help. Joefromrandb (talk) 20:24, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
I went with the redirect, as it seemed the simplest way to settle the issue. At least now, someone who types in "Thacher Longstreth" will be able to find the article, which was my main concern. I don't think that a move is necessary, although I would support it should the issue arise. Thank you again for helping me. Joefromrandb (talk) 05:22, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Request to watch a page

Hi Ronjones - you've been very helpful in the past and I wonder if I can troubleshoot an issue with you. The following page, Black Swan dance double controversy, is getting a lot of activity from IPs - not so much vandalism as edits which don't really comply with WP policies or are poorly formatted, misspellings etc. So I'm not sure if we're talking about a temporary lock. But since this is a topical article, I think it should be watched by admins - I'm technically on wikibreak and thus don't have so much time to spend on the WP. Anyway, perhaps you can add it to your watch list or have another admin watch it. Thanks, -Classicfilms (talk) 16:33, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

OK, I've added to watch list. It doesn't seem that bad at all, I see not real recent vandalism, looks like all editors are trying (in their own way) to improve it. Spelling mistakes are easily fixed (thank goodness FF3 can have a spell checker add on! my spelling is terrible). There's certainly no case for any protection at present.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:04, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
Great, I appreciate it. I felt the same way, though I appreciate you adding it to your list. I've been having to make multiple fixes (more than just spelling -- ref formatting, incorrect information that needed to be fixed etc., more due to oversight I suspect than anything else) and I really need to take a break. Thanks for your help.-Classicfilms (talk) 19:30, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Tagging chemical structures

Hi Ron. I would suggest to tag the chemical structures that are of bad quality with {{Low quality chem}} instead or in addition to categories. This would allow to go an unbureaucratic way (as suggested here), if an image has been tagged for e.g. one month, is orphaned and there is no objection. --Leyo 08:12, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

And you quote

When, as you say "it can't be long before the phrase shows up in a magazine column or some other sort of recorded discourse", it does show up in a reliable source, we can add it in, so you have your mission - find the source. Ronhjones (Talk) 23:06, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

American comedian and satirist George Carlin in his famous c.1972 Filthy Words diatribe clearly includes a reference to biting brown. It can be viewed here at ~3:30m: 2. Ronhjones, do we have your agreement this is a "recorded discourse"?

"Well... we're waiting?"

Originally posted on your userpage by 180.210.203.173 (talk), moved to talk by T H F S W (T · C · E).

And what sort of reference is "~3:30m: 2" - it makes no sense. Anyway, the inclusion is not just up to me, pages are constructed on consensus. If you have a reference in the true meaning of Wikipedia's reliable source then a discussion should be started on the articles talk page.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 22:54, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
Consensus was that someone made this term up, and therefore should not be included among legitimate slang. Consensus was wrong. This isn't the OED so I don't think it's the first utterance that counts, it just needs to be a good one. Not sure, but the Carlin quotes could be both. George Carlin at three minutes, thirty seconds into the link that was provided said "Bite the Brown". That was 1972. (The '2' was the link to the reference... again more dust thrown up to discredit. C'mon Ron, you're a heavy user of this site - you knew what that was....)
So if consensus was wrong, and it clearly was, why were super editors like you not more aggressive in defending the truth? I'm sure you never even read any of it - how could you? You would just come in and lock it down after false complaints of 'vandalism' piled up. Such nonsense.
Remember again, that whole thing started because it was claimed that the phrase Bite the Brown as a synonym for Anilingus was "made up". Well, maybe, but surely not by the person trying to add to that wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.210.203.173 (talk) 00:17, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Your reference only links to 2 - a page on Wikipedia about the number 2, nothing else. Also Wikipedia is WP:NOTTRUTH. I'm no super editor, prose is definitely not my thing, I just try to make sure the content follows the policies.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:32, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Ron, it's as cut/pasted quote. Link to the numeral 2 isn't the point. Originally it linked to a George Carlin bit from 1972, discrediting the entire argument against the edits. More lame dust...
What do we do when I show you a reference from 1972? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.210.203.173 (talk) 05:05, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Don't show me, just give the full reference at Talk:Anilingus as ask if the source is reliable enough to allow the inclusion in the Article. It will be up to the community to give you an answer. Have a read first of WP:DISPUTE - if you don't like the answer you get, then that page gives you some options to explore.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:09, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Indian passport Cover1.jpg

I didn't get it what you want me to do... do u want picture of me and my passport to prove i scan my own passport it?.. i think you didn't see Metadata ... its clearly HP all in one (printer,scanner and copier) to scan my passport...--Muzi (talk) 10:37, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

You can take a picture, but you cannot take the copyright away from owner- thus the phrase you added (via a template) "I, the copyright holder of this work" cannot be true. It may be the case that copyright has run out - that will depend on the copyright laws of India, and when they designed that version. Wikipedia:Copyright situations by country says for India - "Life+60" - which means the copyright runs out 60 years after the death of the designer, or 60 years after publication if the designer is unknown. If the passport design has been exactly the same since 1950 then it may have expired. You are more than welcome to get a second opinion - file image problems are very complex, and we don't get it right all the time, hence the delayed deletion process - if you wich to check, you are welcome to post a question at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:30, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

If you don't want them to stay then that's your decision. I am trying to suggest ways to keep the pictures. Wikipedia has to have strong rules on copyright - the Wikipedia Foundation is, in essence, a charity - an expensive court case on image copyright violation could do great damage to it. This is not the first time this image has come up for deletion - your first upload of "File:Indian passport Cover.JPG was deleted on 29 October 2006 for the same reasoning. Since then the rules have been made more clearer for us to tag these files for deletion, and as for your other pictures, some of them will have to go the same way for the same reason. As you say you aren't interested, I won't bother adding more templates to your talk page.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:17, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Xhamster for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Xhamster is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Xhamster until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 22:33, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Tagging of File:Lawdiploma.jpg

I notice you have tagged File:Lawdiploma.jpg as missing evidence of permission. In case you didn't realise, the uploder, Mnbitar (talk · contribs), died in February 2011, and hence it is now unlikely that permission will be received. CT Cooper · talk 23:24, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

One never knows the state of the original uploader, there have been plenty who just open an account, upload a few pictures and never come back - it's unlikely that those pictures will ever get permission as well. Not a lot we can do. At least this one is an orphan, so if it goes, it won't degrade any article.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 23:35, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Image issues

Hi! Related to File:S. B. Dissanayake.jpg and File:Hon. Gamini Dissanayake.jpg, if I'm not mistaken, per WP:CSD, as an editor who is not the original uploader, I am permitted to remove the CSD tags. Apologies if I'm wrong though, I haven't been too active here of late.

With regard to the images themselves, the uploader claims he has been given the copyright of the images, and he is releasing them to PD. I understand it's not perfect, and we have to assume good faith on his part. But how is that different to the thousands of images on here that have been taken from Flickr? We've just assuming the original flickr uploader actually took the images and owns the copyright, but we have no way to verify that claim. So say, instead of been truthful, if Photos by Anuradha (talk · contribs) had uploaded these pics to flickr, claimed that he'd taken them and owned the copyright, no one would have questioned it.

Tineye turns up zero results, so it's pretty clear the uploader didn't steal these images from somewhere online. I don't see any reason to doubt his claims, and personally I don't see anything wrong with these images. --snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 14:46, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

If you are convinced it's fine then OK. I never do edit wars :-) It's always likely to get tagged again (not for CSD - that's only once - it would be FfD) by other editors in the future. True there are some old photos on WP that would not survive for 5 minutes should they have been uploaded now. But there is no rule for old photos (I already checked) - we have to apply the same rules as a photo being freshly uploaded. As for Flickr, there aren't that many bad ones any more (Or I haven't found them yet!) - the Flickr policy is easy to implement anyway, so long as it's CC-BY or CC-BY-SA, it can stay, the other 4 types can't. Most (good) Flickr images are now on commons, anyway - and I move them there if I find them (then the commons FlickrBot checks the license automatically, and records the result). I use TinEye, but I have to say, it does miss a lot of images - which I have found on Google Images (but that can take looking at a lot of pages of images - unless one is lucky and the uploader did not change the size!).  Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:10, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of ilisjn.jpg

I noticed that a file I had uploaded was recently deleted as per your suggestion. The reason was "Copy of a newsletter, published in Finland. I would suspect that copyright on a 1983 Finnish magazine is still intact."

This image was in fact the cover of a photocopied newsletter with a small circulation, not a magazine. The cover layout was designed by me (the sole editor), and the cover image was a photograph I had taken. I consider myself as the owner of the copyright. Any suggestions how I can prove this without fearing that my files will be deleted in the future?

Eisaksso (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 13:10, 2 May 2011 (UTC).

The best way is to use the template:information template - the template page gives some good information on how to fill in. My extra advice is do not use your own name! We can't relate names to user names, so for "author" use your username - enter as [[User:Eisaksso]] - then we see the "author" is the same as the "uploader". The more explanation you give in the description, then the easier it will be. If the image appears somewhere on the web, someone will find it - if you know it is published on-line then have a review of WP:DCM. Also consider uploading to commons, images here can only be used by English Wikipedia, on commons they could be used by any Wikipedia (even the Finnish one). If you want me to undelete it here to add suitable data as I have described, then leave me a note, and if you want me to then move it to commons after you have completed the data, then let me know that as well.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:26, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

The image is not in Commons, it's on en-Wikipedia - which is why you have a message on this Wiki. While you can take the photo, you cannot take the copyright away from the owner/designer. You could try to obtain permission (see WP:DCM) from the owner, if you know who issues the notes.
If you can find a web link that specifies that this note is in the public domain or has an appropriate CC license, then you can just add that link to the page and remove the di-no-permission.
Another solution might be to remove the PD template and change the image to a Fair use. If so, then I would suggest adding
  • {{Non-free currency}}
  • and a filled in FUR template based on...
{{Non-free use rationale
| Description       = 
| Source            = 
| Article           = 
| Portion           = 
| Low_resolution    = 
| Purpose           = 
| Replaceability    = --~~~~
| other_information = 
}}
Note that you need a FUR for each Article the picture is used in!

Hope that makes some sense. If you want me to start adding the Free Use bits for you (and you then fill in any gaps), then come back  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:15, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Dear Ron, thank you for your patience and assistance. I have revised the Licensing by adding a FUR template as you have suggested above. Would you kindly check and see how I did? [4] Many thanks, -- — Keithbob • Talk • 15:43, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Almost there... I've added a second FUR as there are 2 aticles that use the image - please check the second one. I've reduced the pic down to a reasonable size for Fair Use.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 22:41, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

File:BrendaHowardEarly90s.jpg

Hello, I'm not sure what exactly you are talking about. I have noticed today that someone seems to have inappropriately removed a photo (the above). I'm going to attempt to restore it and failing that will upload a new copy. CyntWorkStuff (talk)

The picture was claimed to have come from http://www.nyabn.org/brenda/images/BrendaHowardEarly90s.jpg. One either needs a link to a statement on that site that shows the Creative Commons License, or to get someone from www.nyabn.org to e-mail the permission to Wikipedia. The full details are laid out at donating copyright material  Ronhjones  (Talk) 23:22, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
I know that permission was given by the photographer who donated the image to the group and the group itself (she was a founder). This is the problem that come from constant changes to things. People such as myself who only log in infrequently and who complied with all the necessary steps at the time then find things deleted or annoyed officious squawking and flitterings about posted on pages because Wikipedia has changed the rules once again. Sigh CyntWorkStuff (talk)
The rules change because they were being abused. Far too many images with "I've got permission", and of course they never did. Sadly some good ones get caught in the net. But if we ignore the abuse that was occurring, then the outcome could end up with a copyright suit against the Wikipedia Foundation, which at the end of the day is just a charity, and an expensive legal wrangle would not do it any good.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 23:48, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
Well I'm not altogether sure what was wrong in this case. But 1st I'm trying to reload it and then I'll try to put on whatever verbiage you all want. CyntWorkStuff (talk)
OK uploaded. Now what language do they need to have added to this now to keep everything on the up and up? CyntWorkStuff (talk)
The full explanation is at WP:DCM. In my opinion the more "bombproof" method is to ..
  1. Use the Template:Information template to set up your fields on the image page.
  2. Get the photographer to email, ideally using the language from the template at WP:CONSENT to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, and place {{OTRS pending}} in the permission field.
Once the OTRS volunteers get the email they will replace the pending template with an approval ticket. The image should then never be in question as to it's license.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:23, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
Here's a typical example File:ShannonLisa.jpg  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:28, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
OK. Well I THINK I put everything on correctly. And will get an email or two sent to the address specified. The thing that is odd to me is what is left (a fake, flatering and 'overly optomistic' shall we say resume, someone else's college art project, etc.) as opposed to what is taken down. Oh well. So now I'll also have to go and see why they took down some movie posters attached to their respective films. *smile* CyntWorkStuff (talk)
We get round to the more useless files as well. I did several files at FfD on the basis of WP:NOTHOST only last week - and all the best files get moved to commons. Anyway, time for bed...  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:58, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Potential copyvio

Hi, Ronhjones. As you are an expert in the field of images' copyright issues, I would like to ask your opinion about two recently added images. Uploader of images File:227899 220916007919115 190360330974683 933110 2715285 n.jpg and File:Noahsark555.jpg declares that these images are his own work. However, this seems highly unlikely. Beagel (talk) 10:34, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Not an expert (yet), but certainly gaining plenty of experience. Looks like both were on commons, first one has gone, and the second one is set to follow it. Commons tends to be much quicker at getting rid of copyvios.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:28, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Please do something about the personal attacks that have been made by User:Juri Koll towards myself and User:Prof.rick in the past. Juri Koll has also reverted any edits that Prof.rick and I had made in the past even though we had provided proof with our edits. Juri Koll has left the Richard Kastle page to be to his likings and so it is to be considered biased. I am sure you can access the previous comments left by Juri Koll.

I understand that I had performed vandalism in early 2010 but it was due to nothing being done about the Richard Kastle page and so I felt it was the only way to get an administrator's attention as I did not know any other possible way to bring the attention towards the page.

File:Togolese passport.png

I believe you are mistaken regarding File:Togolese passport.png. The stuff you posted on my talk page is not applicable for multiple reasons, the main ones being the assumed distinction between myself and the copyright owner, the qualification "but have previously published it elsewhere", and my least favorite, the assertion that "there is no proof" that I agreed to license it. I guess the huge box with the text "I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby release it into the public domain. This applies worldwide" does not qualify as proof? I am the creator of that file, everything on that page that was written by me and is accurate. I have not published this image anywhere because it took it specifically for wikipedia, uploaded it, and selected the correct license, and clarified my ownership of the image in as explicit a manner as I could. I would like for you to please cancel the nomination for deletion or whatever other action you may have initiated. EAE (Holla!) 02:06, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

You cannot be the copyright holder, that belongs to the Government that issued the passport - you cannot "grab" the copyright by taking a photograph of it. If the Government decides to declare that the imagery is PD then you can have it. One needs to have a good understanding of the Togolese copyright laws. (As for the wording - that's a Wikipedia approved agreed template, to inform an editor that an image of his has been tagged with a no-permission notice - we do not type each one out separately), If the image is use with critical commentary in any article then it is possible to change the license to one from HERE (maybe {{Non-free book cover}}, along with a Fair Use Rationale WP:RAT - see also WP:NONFREE for more information  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:01, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:ToxicAvengerShockini.JPG

Hello. You recently marked a file I uploaded for deletion, but I'm not sure why. The photo is one that I took myself and has not been published elsewhere. I released the image into the public domain and added the appropriate tag (I thought). Has Wikipedia policy changed since I uploaded the file? Please advise on what I need to do to prevent the deletion. Thank you. ShockerHelp (talk) 03:04, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't think policy has changed too much, but it has become much more focused on making sure that the image is really correctly described and licensed. There were a lot of "I have permission" statements, which frankly were not true. Last year saw the introduction of the pseudo-speedy system which allows tagging the image for "no source", "no license", "no permission", "no fur", etc. with a grace period of a week for the uploader to fix the problem. I think toys are in a bit of a grey area as regards copyright, but the fact that there is also the card with artwork on it swayed my decision, and the majority of toys on Wikipedia are all in the non-free use category. Note my last answer above - the copyright always belongs to the manufacturer, even if you take a photo. Anyway, I would suggest change it to Fair Use - and I suggest have a look at this image of a toy File:Hungrrr-toy.jpg, which should help you compose your page. If you do decide to do that, then just remove the whole of the "di-no-permission line" when you edit it.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:13, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

File:Historical MC13.png (and others recently commented on my talk page)

I followed the guidelines of adding {{OTRS}} (or whatever the correct syntax is; it escapes me at the moment) to the page to ask for a request of an extension. I sent an email to permissions to permit the page using the recommended consent form. I thought this is what I needed to do, no?

In the future, especially for new folks to wikipedia editing like me, it's helpful to not delete an image and then say why, but rather flag it or reach out to the person first to attempt to rectify. I think I'm OK now, with the consent letter covering all images in use on the Mathcad page. - 96.233.39.63 (talk) 01:21, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

That's exactly why we have the pseudo-speedy system for image issues (the no permission, no source, no fair use, etc) - it allows the uploader a full seven days to sort out the problem - the system allows me to tag the image, and automatically makes sure that the standard message is placed on the uploader's talk page, so that they can deal with the problem. A normal speedy (which wasn't used here), is just that, it would be often gone in under 24 hours. Anyway, I see that the OTRS volunteer has given you the required ticket - that should stop any further issues with these images.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 18:48, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for clarifying. I meant no malice or strong-arm... just getting used to the syntax. I, too, think I should be OK. If not, simply let me know and I'll respond as soon as I can. Seven days is much more flexible than one. And thanks for the Wikipedia Image 'training' - it is appreciated. Abelniak (talk) 16:04, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Remember, you don 't have to keep uploading. Nothing is ever removed forever, if there is a delay getting it sorted, then any admin can restore the page when you have sufficient data for the image to remain.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:52, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

File:WHEEL-1971-on-set.JPG

In regard to the above reverenced photograph, please tell me the best and easiest way to resolve this. Let me explain the facts and perhaps you have a good way for me to resolve this. The subject of the article David Winters, sent me this and many others, after I introduced myself to him in the process of writing my first article. It was much by accident, and I have fully disclosed my current connection to him. He has a website http://www.davidwinters.net - most if not all the images are there, can he put a cc3.0sa license on that as copyright holder? This particular image is a back stage photograph by a staff member of his company on his production. Unambiguously he is the copyright holder. He knows why he sent it to me, and in good faith I uploaded it. I understand I need to make it easier to verify the chain of events that led to this. I have a treasure trove of similar images spanning 4 decades, but have been holding them back because of this issue. I was very new when I uploaded this image, and now, usually spend the extra time finding a properly publicly licensed image, or I just take them myself LOL. I have a similar one you cited, which is different subject, but I received it from the estate of the article's subject Gertrude Warner. Her son has taken an active interest in her legacy and has contributed more information to her biography. The image itself is a scan of her copy of a publicity photo for a long forgotten radio show. Could I treat that as a "press kit" type of fair use, but sourcing it is awkward in that I did not find it online, but was sent to me in the manner described. The others you tagged are my original work, I was just not as accomplished at writing documentation when I uploaded those. K3vin (talk) 23:39, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

There are a few good ways to keep the images.
  1. Obtain the classic OTRS ticket - yes a bit involved, but it's then locked to the image for ever more.
  2. Change the images on a web page(s) to state "cc-by-sa 3.0" - and maybe use a proper cc logo as well (see my web page - I've put it in the menu bar - http://www.crhf.org.uk/)
  3. A new one I saw yesterday. The web site made an extra page, just for image release - it just had some text at the top saying the following images were all released under cc-by-sa 3.0, followed by a select group of images that the owner was happy to release. The URL to this page was then used as the permission link. Has the advantage that the web site owner can easily pick and choose what he wants to release, and as the images are on the server already, the actual size of the new page on the web server is insignificant.
The main problem (my view) with both 2 & 3, is that if ever the web site closes down (and it has not been archived by the Web Archive), then your permission technically vanishes.
As for Gertrude Warner, you can use "fair use", as she is deceased - thus satisfying the "non replaceable" part of the FUR. I guess you could use {{Non-free promotional}} or {{Non-free fair use in}} along with your FUR or any other from Category:Non-free_Wikipedia_file_copyright_tags that you think suitable.
For those that are 100% your work, then remove the template, and make sure that the description is filled in to show that it's all your work. Note: we cannot tie real names to user name, so I always suggest to make sure that you use your user name - i.e "taken by K3vin", not "taken by <real name>".
Hope that all makes some sense. Taking the pictures yourself is always easier - and always consider uploading those to commons instead. I have no images on en-Wikipedia, mine are all on commons.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:17, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Ah, the classic problem. We have no way of telling that User:Weaselbit = Mike Rider (if only we could, it would save lots of problems), so I see a painting by Mike Rider and uploaded by Weaselbit, it could be good or it could be bad. Since mid last year we have had the new pseudo-speedy system which allows one week for the author to sort out any missing issues - earlier attempts at just flagging missing parts were mainly ignored.

There are standard letters here to use, but I don't think we need to go there. I've done all eight pictures, using the standard Template:information to nicely format the data. In addition I think I have made it very clear that the uploader and artist are one and the same, so there should be no question of copyright problems (I hope - one cannot predict the future here!).

They just are not going to be stopped by short blocks - someone is gaming the system, they know if they wait a short while after the block then the next warning is likely to go back to No.1 - so I've given them a number 3 :-) - they vandalised again!, and we'll have a 1 month's semi trial - let's see what happens when that ends - I will likely expect one of two outcomes...
  1. They go away and don't come back, knowing that they can't beat the system.
  2. Once the trial ends they will hit it big time.
If it's the second, then the next protect can be longer.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:19, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

File:Donniedarkoskelcostume.jpg

Hi. You rejected a di-replaceable fair use. I don't deal with image deletion that often, but I don't understand how a character image in a BLP article with multiple free actor images is not replace, considering the actor's look doesn't differ much from the character's (see WP:NFC#UUI #1). There is also nothing special in the character image that couldn't be described in words. Would another di tag have been more appropriate in this situation? I just want to know for the next time I am in this situation. Thanks. – sgeureka t•c 08:43, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

I rejected it, as there was not a huge amount of images on the article and it does lie within the section of the film. It a bit of a "grey" one. After your message, I was inclined to delete it anyway, then I found Wikipedia:Images_and_media_for_deletion/2007_August_25#File:Donniedarkoskelcostume.jpg on the talk page, with the same concerns, and it was kept. In view of that, I would suggest that it has to stay or do another WP:FfD, as views on such non free images may have changed over the last 4 years.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 12:35, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Farid Ghadry

Dear Rohn.. My name is Farid Ghadry (fng18@yahoo.com). My page on Wikipedia has been edited by unsavory characters posting misleading information. Every time I attempted to edit it, it was hacked again with the same information. As a result, I was banned from making any changes or accesses. Further, I personally wrote several articles (you can find them on my Blog at http://ghadry.com) that were somehow deemed as Vandalism or infringing on copyrights of others. I would appreciate looking into the matter so that I can edit my own page and block others from making illicit changes. and against our work for freedom and human rights in Syria. Thank you, Farid Ghadry 301-346-5000 (cell) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.28.111.192 (talk) 14:06, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Oh dear. Where do I start...
  1. I assume you are User:Fghadry. A block is just that - once blocked you cannot edit until unblocked. So actually posting here is technically a block evasion. I'll ignore it just this time.
  2. No one owns a page on Wikipedia - WP:OWN. If you are the person on the paqe, then Wikpedia does not like you to edit it - WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY.
  3. Anyone can edit the page and add what data they may have found so long as it is properly referenced.
  4. Any data added that cannot be verified is deemed to be original research, and as such will be deleted - Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a blog.
  5. Any data added that is a copy or even a close copy of any other web site, is a copyright violation, unless the strict rules in donating copyright materials has been followed. Copyright violations are treated very seriously, and will certainly be deleted, and the user warned.
  6. A user cannot have a user name that suggests any link to an article that they may edit - thus your user name is not allowed.
I can only suggest that you return to your own talk page, and request an unblock - explain what why you made those edits, and suggest a new user name for yourself. You will probably have to agree not to edit the Farid Ghadry page, but just be allowed to add data to the talk page for other editors to consider adding to the article.
(And please do not edit here as an IP - thanks)

Deleted Page

Hi Ronhjones,

I created a page a few days ago for The Inland Real Estate Group of Companies, Inc. and it was deleted. I'd really appreciate your feedback on how I can make it more objective and more of what Wikipedia is looking for. I saw from your profile that you've edited a ton of high profile entries, so I'd love to learn more about what you think I should do.

Also, if possible, I'd also like to get the entry back. It took me a while to write it, and I didn't save the version with the proper formatting.

Thanks in advance for your help! I've been a huge Wikipedia fan for years! 69.174.58.28 (talk) 17:03, 8 June 2011 (UTC)Andrea from 69.174.58.28 (talk) 17:03, 8 June 2011 (UTC)InlandGroup

Oh no, not again (said the bowl of petunias...)
  1. You might read my previous answer above - are you perhaps User:InlandGroup - and you have posted here while blocked?... Once again I will give you the same answer as above, you may not evade a block by using an IP address, and I will ignore it this time if that is the case.
  2. Writing about one's own company is almost impossible to do with a neutral viewpoint, since you have so much conflict of interest, and you are extremely unlikely to add anything that is detrimental (unless you have some axe to grind) - hence it is very actively discouraged.
  3. If you are User:InlandGroup, then you will have to request unblock at that page by asking for a name change (the correct template is shown in the notice there), and others will ask what you intend to edit. If you are not User:InlandGroup, then I suggest you create an account, then I can either e-mail you the content or make a subpage of your new name (nothing ever gets really deleted). Note that even subpages can be tagged for spam, although most are usually more forgiving, if they see a piece is being worked on. We don't do subpages of IP addresses.
  4. If you must work on the Article - good luck - there will be plenty who will oppose you - just see User talk:FaztekSafety to see someone in a very similar situation.
  5. A complted article in a subpage is best submitted fro editor review before moving it to article space - WP:PR
  6. You may wish to review WP:CORP, which explains what is expected of an organisation page to be able to remain.

CUSACK - Rate this Page

Hi Ron, Can you help/explain the following? A friend mentioned that since the 'removal', by someone, of the 'Visit Count', I'd put at the end of 'CUSACK', a 'Rate this Page' box has appeared after 'References', at the end of the piece. Having 'Logged In' I went to have a look and found the box which stated An error has occured. Please try again later. When I went back, a couple of days later, the same message was still there. The friend said that he had no problem completing the ratings which had flagged up Thanks your ratings have been saved and when he clicked on 'View page Ratings' the count had increased by one. I went to have another look. This time without 'Logging In' and found the 'Rate this Page'. I then 'Logged In' and found the same old error message. What do you think, why the difference between being logged In or Out? Are these rating boxes frequently added to pages? On the second point would it be acceptable to reinstate the 'Visit Count' hidden/placed in the 'Discussion' page rather than at the end of the piece where it was found unacceptable? Best Regards C.Cleeve (talk) 14:46, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

I don't think you can have a visit count on a page - and as such it was swiftly removed as "rm non-encyclopaedic content". The Rate this Page thing is a Wikipedia Foundation project and is appearing on quite a few pages - I assume they have made a random test pick. WP has been having problems with caching of late. If you get an error then try purging the cache - if you go the Gadgets page in your preferences, you can add a purge tab (has a * symbol on it), that is handy to force a re-load.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 18:45, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Ron thank you. I've ticked 'Add a Purg Tab...' in My Preferences/Gadgets. In CUSACK (at top of page) went across to the 'select arrow' (to the right of the Star) and clicked on 'Purge'. I hope that I've got your instructions correct and now look forward to seeing 'Rate this Page' working and pleased the piece is part of the Wiki survey. Thank you once again for you time, advice and guidance. C.Cleeve (talk) 09:47, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Removal of a picture

You removed a picture that you should not have. I spent hours uploading that picture that I took and following the very complicated Wikipedia guidelines to license it and put it under copyrite. Everything was done according to the text messages I was sent. Please restore it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abdul Muhib (talk • contribs) 16:31, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

I assume you mean File:My Inuit Father.JPG - it was correctly deleted because there was no proper license assigned to the image. I have restored it, tidied up the data so far supplied, and given you another 7 days to add whatever license template you wish from WP:ICT/All - please copy the one you want to the License section I have created on the image page. If you do not add one of the templates, then it is likely that someone will delete it again.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 18:27, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

I found the image in question (File:behenic_acid.gif). I've checked, and it's been replaced with an SVG in the article on Behenic acid, so I'd be perfectly happy for it to be deleted. No need for you to respond further, unless you'd like to. Thanks. Waitak (talk) 13:52, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Several attemps failed...thanks for your help!

Hi there, Ronhjones! I'm writing in hopes that I might get some direct advice about my article, which has been declined for admission about 10 times--the rejection is killing me! I have gotten advice on the live chats, read all the information and feedback I can, and made several changes to my article, but with the same outcome. I work for a designer who has a national presence and by all accounts would warrant being "in an encyclopedia", but the feedback I've gotten is that my article "doesn't sufficiently explain the importance or significance of the subject" and that it "appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia." I'm truly trying to avoid language that does these things...any advice? I wholeheartedly appreciate your direct feedback. The article is "angela adams designs". Thanks! I guess I'm supposed to sign, Kengajilly (talk) 16:15, 15 June 2011 (UTC) Hope I did it right!

Writing about an employer is strongly discouraged - any employee is very unlikely to add anything controversial or detrimental - and Wikipedia insists on all articles having a neutral point of view, and an employee is likely to have a heavy conflict of interest. So you are already struggling. My suggestions - if you must try to write an article...
  1. Always write any new article in user space (e.g User:Kengajilly/Angela Adams Designs), and place {{userspacedraft}} at the start. It can't stop it being suggested for deletion, but you may find more tolerance, while you are working on the article. I would do this for any article - if very difficult to create directly in article space, without a deletion request popping up!
  2. Check the following page WP:CORP - you need to satisfy the criteria here for the article to stay.
  3. Don't forget to add plenty of good inline reliable sources - independent of the type of organisation, trade papers can be used, but don't rely on them. Don't write paragraphs with no references - it will attract the spam-busters.
  4. Before moving the new article into article space, get a review WP:PR, and address all concerns.
  5. Anyone who writes part of the article has has a WP:COI, needs to declare it on the article talk page. Editors will not then think you are trying to be secretive.
Hope that clears a few issues for you  Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:57, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Re: 2011 Malaysian Grand Prix

Little problem is understatement of the century, my friend! Haha. I think me as well as a few others are getting frustrated at the sub-standard English on certain the Formula One articles by the certain IP individual. Yeah, I thought it'd be slightly difficult, having looked through all the various user-warning and notice templates and we could not see one for sub-standard English, so we did not know how to take it further. It is slightly disruptive, so I suppose that template does fit. I shall let you know if semi-protection is necessary, but if it does amount to it, it'd probably be most of the season articles within the last few years and the current drivers. But yeah, cheers!

Wikipedia is not a blog. You cannot add data to a BLP article unless there are suitable references available to support that data. We have no way of verifying the identity of any editor - all editors are treated equally. This is one reason why editing of any article of which you have a large conflict of interest is greatly discouraged. We have to ensure that the data being added is 100% correct - we cannot do that unless there are significant articles published to back up the data. We cannot accept unpublished data from the subject - that counts as original research and is not permitted. If you wish to add new data, then you may either make them under your user name (User:NadeemZaigham), once autoconfirmed, or add the data to the talk page in the hope that an uninvolved editor will view, verify and add the content for you.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 18:34, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

CUSACK - Rate this Page (issue 2)

Hi Ron,

Reference your advice on how to 'highlight the error' to 'management' that the survey placed at the end of the piece was not appearing, when one was Logged In, but was there when you did not Log In - the problem has not resolved itself.

I did try doing what you suggested, some time ago, but without a result.

Any suggestions?

Regards C.Cleeve (talk) 11:53, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

Hmmmm, beat's me. I get a rate this page, and I did rate it to see the effect - and then I get the ratings I gave and it allows me to alter as I desire and re-rate - it also will show the result of 6 ratings given so far. Maybe it's a browser issue? What are you using. Not everything in WP works with IE - as IE does not follow the W3C standards 100%. My only suggestion, as it's a technical question is to raise it at WP:VPT.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 12:54, 28 June 2011 (UTC)


Ron,

Sorry to take up your time. Thanks for having a look at it, I thought that it might have been something I had done incorrectly when following your suggested fix.

I'll let it ride, I just thought that 'management' was missing out on data from the 'on line' source where I get the error message of 'try again later'.

The Revival Fellowship

Hi Ronhjones; in protecting this page, the contentious section composed of original research (no indication that the published sources refer specifically to this church) and unreliable sources (blogs, message boards) has been preserved. Perhaps you could have another look. I've no dog in this fight. Much obliged, 99.168.84.75 (talk) 15:55, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

It's an edit war - there's no right or wrong page, otherwise we could call it vandalism and block just one editor. Wikipedia is not news, there's no real need to make a page perfect all the time, it gets there by a slower process of consensus. The page is locked for only one week. Assuming that an edit war does not resume, then anyone can edit the page as soon as the protection is over. If I start reverting to a different version then that means I have an interest in a particular version - I don't, so I'm not choosing any particular version. Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:41, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
I've encountered a laissez faire approach to this kind of situation in recent months, which is less apt to discern legitimate edits from inadequately sourced POV. As noted above, the current section is supported by personal blogs and original research, the kind of content that once was reverted without question. Such is the reason I've retired my account, and will soon hang up the IP nonsense as well. Thanks, 99.156.70.163 (talk) 13:12, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
It's up to the active editors of the page to decide properly by consensus what they want to keep/delete, not for admins to wade in with all guns blazing - there are only about 1000 active admins anyway, and 10,000,000 editors - we don't have that much spare time to fully investigate page content (~150 pages are edited every minute), unless it's obviously vandalism, or a subject we personally know about.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 18:51, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
I appreciate the demographics--I've edited here for 5 years and know that the tide is constant. But we're not talking about guns blazing. What troubles me is the disclaimer re: obvious vandalism or subjects of expertise. Between those extremes lies an ocean of POV and abusive contributions. You did take the responsibility of protecting the page, and that is why I left a note here. To turn a blind eye thereafter is surely your prerogative, but I came here requesting a follow-up--it took me a few minutes to ascertain that the edits in question were unsourced soapboxing. However, as I already indicated, I've recently had other similar encounters, and conclude that Wikipedia has gotten out of control, to the extent that administrators can't or won't go further than dealing with the most obvious abuses, which themselves are of a multitude. One returns to the printed page, wondering why one left. Thanks anyway. 99.156.70.163 (talk) 21:37, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

A thought. Has wikipedia ever had an artist or an heir (copyright holder) complain about the use of an image on wikipedia? Carptrash (talk) 20:19, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

An interesting question, to which I have no answer. The problem is that Wikipedia is much bigger than it was several years ago, it tends to get a very high rank in google, so these old pictures have potentially a bigger audience. Then we must remember that Wikipedia is not a company (it's a charity), it does not have vast amounts of cash to fight off any legal cases - which could get expensive, - remember that any picture here (excluding non-free) can be used for any purpose (even commercial), so a picture might end up being used in lots of places and they will all point to Wikipedia's policy which allows them to copy freely.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 21:50, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
