CGorman~commonswiki

First of all, thanks for your contributions. However, you need to place a copyright tag on it, since images with unknown copyright information are subject to deletion. Once again, thanks for your contributions. Nadavspi 22:17, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Please note that the commons do not allow fair use images. This, especially logos will have to be deleted (have a look at {{Logo}}). -- Duesentrieb 21:52, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Please don't hide your images

Hello - thank you for providing images to the wikimedia commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the commons should be useful to all users of wikimedia projects - this is possible only if the images can be found by other people. To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should either place the images on topic pages (galleries), or put the images directly into a category, or do both. Which of those possibilities is preferred is however a matter of debate, see here.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There is a large number of completely unsorted images on the commons right now, see Commons:Really unused. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do! Thank you. -- Duesentrieb 12:50, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I know I should be placing them in cats. Its just laziness.. after writing a news story for wikinews or working on a new section at wikipedia the last job generally is to add a graph or chart... and im just so tired at that stage! I've been meaning to sort out all my contributions one day... but have yet to get around to that day! CGorman 20:12, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Royal_canal.png

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Royal_canal.png. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Please help replace this outdated license

Hello!

Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.

The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.

Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.

The images we would like you to check are:

• File:Ftse7july05.PNG
• File:Juniorcert1.jpg
• File:Stocksfall7july.PNG

Question on Irish debt chart

Regarding File:Irish GDPDebt Ratio Chart.jpg, is this cumulative debt, or only debt for a single year? Also, where did you get the data to make this chart? Thanks for your work on the project! -- Beland (talk) 02:16, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called CGorman. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name CGorman~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
