Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Israeli M109 howitzer fires into Gaza.jpg

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Israeli M109 howitzer fires into Gaza.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:50, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Israeli soldiers in Southern Lebanon.jpg

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Israeli soldiers in Southern Lebanon.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:52, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please identify File:DSCF1465.JPG

[edit]

Hello. I am going though all files with names starting with DSC and where applicable renaming them, filling out Template:Information summaries, and/or marking them {{copytocommons}}.

As part of this I have come across your upload, File:DSCF1465.JPG, which does not have description information on the file description page and is not used in an article. Therefore I cannot on my own identify the subject of the image.

Please insert a description of what the image is at the file description page (File:DSCF1465.JPG).

Notice

The article Operation Northern Lights has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Useless article. Lacks sources and notability. Has two sentences.

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.
