If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{cc-by-sa-3.0}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. Note, if you did create this file, you may want to upload it to Wikimedia Commons, which will allow the image to be accessed by all Wikimedia Foundation projects (which include the various localized versions of Wikipedia)
Hi David, this also applies to File:ClusterandFarnbauerLiveinVienna.jpg and File:MFHWithin30Miles.jpg and File:NikLumsdenAlarmsandExcursions.jpg. Since you are the copyright holder, are you able to release it under a free licence that allows commercial use and derivatives such as CC-BY-SA-3.0? If you are uncomfortable with this perhaps you could upload a smaller image say 250 pixels wide and release only the small image freely.
Often with covers of music it can be use under fair use, but this normally applies only in articles about the album, rather than the record label or artist. Normally galleries of fair use images are counted as not fair here, so I don't think that we can claim a fair use yet. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:22, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Pump (band).jpg
[edit]
Thank you for uploading File:Pump (band).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 website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 00:15, 27 August 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:15, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 19
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Yeoman (computing), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Python (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The article Robohack has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs
[edit]Thank you for your recent articles, including Peter Potworowski, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. This can be also done through this helpful user script: User:SD0001/DYK-helper. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:53, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
[edit]Thank you for your recent articles, including Peter Potworowski, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:53, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

DYK for Piotr Potworowski
[edit]
On 5 December 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Piotr Potworowski, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Polish abstract painter Piotr Potworowski influenced the creative thinking of British painters at the Bath Academy of Art? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Piotr Potworowski. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Piotr Potworowski), and it may be added to the statistics page if it received over 400 views per hour. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
