[edit] London meet is TUESDAY 9th, not Wednesday 10th!

[edit] 1991

It's just that I was upset that Jcsoccer91 has been adding people on the birthday list on 1991 that doesn't have a Wikipedia article with the words that sound like a foul language. So I just assumed that it's vandalism so I reverted the page, but within minutes after I reverted the page 1991, Jcsoccer91 has redone putting the same person on the birthday list on 1991 that doesn't have a Wikipedia article. In addition, Jcsoccer91 has also written "Quit deleting my post on 1991 or ill kick ur ass loser. do u like spend all ur time on wikipedia? get a life" on my talk page.

It's just that when users vandalize pages, then other readers can get very confused. That's the reason for not vandalizing and reverting vandalism. By the way, how did you know that I am new to Wikipedia? Amos Han 01:16, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

When I saw Jcsoccer91's contribution, it seemed like vandalism since he put the words "American Badass" on it. Amos Han 01:56, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Miguel Ángel Fernández Ordóñez

You deleted my article on MA Fernández Ordóñez saying he's not notable. I believe he IS notable since he's the current Governor of the Bank of Spain. I don't understand why that article was even put under "speedy deletion"?!? Please comment if there's some way to revert the deletion of the article. --RiseRover|^talk 07:51, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

In the meanwhile I have created the article again. Please comment if you have any problem with this. --RiseRover|^talk 08:10, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Licence for Image:4337995 5b04ba99e5.jpg

Hi, I have some concerns about the copyright licencing of Image:4337995 5b04ba99e5.jpg, which you uploaded. Please see the image's talk page for the details. Thanks. -- AJR | Talk 23:23, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

I have also noticed that you uploaded Image:196723404 792b728b62.jpg as CC-BY 2.0, while on the Flickr source page it is listed as noncommercial use only. -- AJR | Talk 23:29, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Both of these two images are used for noncommercial purpose, Wikipedia shouldn't use them for commercial purpose. Miaers 23:32, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

That Wikipedia itself is noncommercial is irrelevent, per Wikipedia:Image use policy#Free licenses, noncommercial use only licences are not free enough for Wikipedia's use, since such licences restrict the ability of those who reuse Wikipedia content to do so commercially, and there are many who do so, see Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks, and also restricts possible fundraising projects such as selling DVD editions of Wikipedia. Also, if the photographer (copyright holder) has said noncommercial use only, you cannot change the licence to remove this term, as you have asserted by using the {{cc-by-2.0}} tag on these images. -- AJR | Talk 23:45, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

There are numerous all copyright reserved images on Wikipedia for fair use purpose. Not all images in Wikipedia are free licenses. Those who copy these non-commercial purpose image for commercial uses are violating copyright, not me. Miaers 23:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, there are many examples of images used under the doctrine of fair use, which provides a number of exceptions to copyright; all images in Wikipedia must either be under a free licence or fall within the rules of fair use. While you are technically correct that "those who copy these non-commercial purpose image for commercial uses are violating copyright", we wish to make it easy for people to re-use Wikipedia content, including commercially, and by uploading images which are not either under a free licence or subject to a valid fair use claim, you are violating Wikipedia policies. And, by claiming (va the copyright tags) that the images are licenced under the Creative Commons Attribution licence rather than the Attribution-Noncommercial or Attribution-Noncommercial-Noderivitaves licences, you probably are violating the photographers' copyrights. I have changed the tags on the image pages to reflect the licenses stated on Flickr; notice that the tags {{cc-by-nc-nd-2.0}} and {{cc-by-nc-2.0}} both point to a speedy deletion notice, reflecting the fact that these images under these licences are not accepted on Wikipedia. -- AJR | Talk 00:05, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

You'd better check the source. It is not a licensed copyright. Miaers 00:09, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

The Flickr pages that you linked from the two image pages in question both show that the Flickr users who uploaded those images to Flickr (and, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary should be assumed to be the photographers and copyright holders) have chosen to make those photos available under specific Creative Commons licences, which is why the phrase Some rights reserved is shown on the Flickr pages. These CC licenses are copyright licenses, however they are licenses that are not acceptable for Wikipedia content since they contain restrictions of commercial use (and in one case ban the creation of deriviate works.) -- AJR | Talk 00:16, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

There is no "All copyright reserved" for these photos. The license tabs I put for these photos match the license description for these photos. If there are problems, there will be administors to deal with them. Please don't change the license tabs I put for these photos. Miaers 04:21, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Both images in question are taken from Flickr, where Creative Commons "some rights reserved" terms have been stated by the photographers. The CC licenses chosen by these photographers include specific terms which are not reflected in the tags that you have used on the Wikipedia image pages:

• Image:4337995 5b04ba99e5.jpg is from http://www.flickr.com/photos/ajkandy/4337995/ - you have marked it as Creative Commons Attribution-2.0, but on Flickr the photographer has specificed Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0
• Image:196723404 792b728b62.jpg is from http://www.flickr.com/photos/harvardavenue/196723404/ - you have again sated that the image is Creative Commons Attribution-2.0, while on the Flickr page it is shown as Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 2.0

In both cases, the tags that you have used ignore some of the restrictions imposed by the photographers, and in a way which affects the accptability of those images under Wikipedia policy. This is a problem, and I am changing the copyright tags on the image pages to reflect what is stated on Flickr, and to bring the situation to the attention of an administrator. -- AJR | Talk 22:00, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
