The David Petraeus article received heavy editing today by unregistered users, which I noticed at WikiRage.com. According to Wikipedia Page History Statistics, you are one of the top contributors to that page. If you think your efforts to improve that article would be improved if new and unregistered users were blocked from editing that article, please let me know and I will protect that page.

Thanks for uploading Image:Flying tigers pilot.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, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I have noticed that you have uploaded many images directly from the website WWII in Color, however, many of the images which you loaded failed to cite the exact website. I saw that there was an old template used for licensing for the use of the images from the WWII in Color website but I can see that this was overturned by Wikipedia. It is fair to say that at least some of the images were indeed copyrighted from various websites and the copyright which you provided on several of the images were made-up license templates. FAQ for WWII in Color
Most of the images stored on ww2incolor.com were collected from government sources or submitted by their respective owners. This does not mean that all images on this site are in the public domain. The majority of the images, unfortunately, have an unknown copyright status and therefore it is recommended that you do not distribute or copy them for any commercial purposes unless they are specifically stated to be in the public domain (some images have a “public domain” notice in their captions).
Most of the images in the gallery are products of government works and therefore are required to be in the public domain by copyright law. However, some of the images were photographed by private individuals, media or other government entities (such as the United Kingdom) that do not fall under public domain law.
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Vc37.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

I noticed that you uploaded the photo Image:NA-73X.jpg under PD-USGov-Military-Army - stating that "Source does not credit or list United States Army for author, however, the image appears to be old, circa 1940 and is most likely taken by a United States government or United States Army employee"
I'm not sure that "Most likely" is good enough to justify this copyright tag- Other photos I have seen of the Mustang in its initial unmarked state have been credited to North American Aviation. If we cannot find a definative source for this photo, it may be better to replace it with a photo of the prototype with known provence - such as the ones [1], which are credited as US Army.Nigel Ish (talk) 18:32, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Signaleer. You have new messages at Kumioko's talk page. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
I like the additions you've been making to the USACE page. If you're not careful (grin), Sheldonville might accuse you of using Wikipedia to promote USACE! LMAO He's really got an ax to grind; I'm assuming he was affected by Katrina. Anyway, I agree with you about Wikipedia being a kind of crack! I'd definitely consider myself to be a newbie Wikiholic! Don'tKnowItAtAll (talk) 19:52, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
I was just editing flag officer and thought it was a rather a bland page. I'm not much up on images, but thought of you. My foray into adding images hasn't been to great to date. I'll try more as I get more experience; but until then, I figured you'd be a good resource based on what you've done for USACE's page. Thanks. Don'tKnowItAtAll (talk) 12:39, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
There probably won't be too many images that display just the rank of Admirals or General Officers which are from government websites. This particular subject is hard to show without actually displaying individuals but since the topic encompasses a global outreach, not just about the United States, it would be difficult to track down just the rank from other nations. That would be my recommendation, as a rule of thumb I try to use images which are public domain so it doesn't violate Wikipedia copyright policies. -Signaleer (talk) 12:49, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Understood. I'm just not good at figuring out which images are public domain without doing a lot of research that I don't really have time for. Is there a place where I can learn more about how to determine licensing on images? I know a lot of people use google but that doesn't mean a thing. Thanks. Don'tKnowItAtAll (talk) 14:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I understand the policy but trying to find images outside of Wikipedia and figuring out if they are public domain or copyright is where I get slowed down. I guess I'm just impatient. LOL
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Saddle and accessories.JPG)[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Saddle and accessories.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.

In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, you can ask me on my talk page or you can visit the help desk. Thank you. 216.163.254.1 (talk) 13:41, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
The english used throughout the article is American-English, therefore I changed the word "Theatre" to "Theater". The logic, if the entire article was written in proper English or British English, then I would have not made any edits. See the policy [2] Please do not revert your changes. -Signaleer (talk) 18:17, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Image:A-26B in Flight.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:A-26B in Flight.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Sdrtirs (talk) 07:46, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Publicity_Photograph_of_Dorothy_wearing_the_Rubby_Slippers.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Publicity_Photograph_of_Dorothy_wearing_the_Rubby_Slippers.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thanks for the move, rather than a AfD, however now the sign says "Aerospace Data Facility East", maybe i should move it to Area 58. Dogue (talk) 15:37, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
Is the official name/title of the organization called "Aerospace Data Facility East"? Does this organization have an official website? The Ft. Belvoir website still lists the organization as DCEETA http://www.belvoir.army.mil/tenant.asp?id=all -Signaleer (talk) 21:10, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
lol, it is a cover name just like DCEETA, no website. there is no official recognition of this facility, but they use euphemisms when they have to deal with the outside world, all the old references use the DCEETA cover name (the signage is ahead of the justifications, or communication)(btw, DCEETA don't talk too well with Belvoir, they just play them in softball)(the air force black programs have an attitude) oh - btw, if you scroll south of area 58 you will find an army signal station - dishes with no radomes, right behind the elementary school, across from the px. --- I was looking at the style guides and copyright policy, there is no guidance for use of quotes, versus new text; i agree that flow of the article aesthetics drive the use of new text as transitions. i will use block quotes. would you support a move to area 58, since the cover name has now changed?Dogue (talk) 15:34, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
If you could take photographs of the sign and post it on Wikipedia, I would think that this would be sufficient enough to do the name change. -Signaleer (talk) 17:44, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at [[Talk:Image:Spitfire Banks in the Clouds.jpg]] and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at [[Talk:Image:Spitfire Banks in the Clouds.jpg]] with a link to where we can find that note.
If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on [[Talk:Image:Spitfire Banks in the Clouds.jpg]].
However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you. MilborneOne (talk) 17:41, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
The source of image was clearly marked on the United States Air Force website and therefore is deemed public domain according to the Wikipedia Copyright rules. -Signaleer (talk) 15:36, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, just because you found it on a USAF website does not make it public domain particularly as it is an image by a well known British photographer and is still in copyright. MilborneOne (talk) 16:02, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
What's the original source then? -Signaleer (talk) 14:58, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Again, where is the proof and evidence? Any website link that shows the credit of the photograph? You did not list any such evidence, additionally, the USAF website does not credit the photograph to the museum or the suspected author. -Signaleer (talk) 17:58, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Sorry I provided evidence that the image was taken by Charles E. Brown (a book rather than a website) it was accepted at Commons and here on wikipedia if you still have a problem then I would suggest you take it to Wikipedia:Deletion review. MilborneOne (talk) 18:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Citing the source and not providing any evidence suggests that citing any book and page number is acceptable as credit. Even though the book was not cited on Wikipedia nor was the book title and I will bring it up. -Signaleer (talk) 19:19, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

File:Boeing XB-17 (Model 299).jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Boeing XB-17 (Model 299).jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Boeing XB-17 (Model 299).jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 07:28, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Monica Lin Brown. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Monica Lin Brown. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:09, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

I've been looking for this pic! (020903-o-9999b-080.jpg)[edit]
I used this pic for a garage collage that I did featuring world war II images like this. Someone asked me who the people were in the pic and I didn't have an answer but no I do thanks to you! I wanted to know if you know who the man is standing two people to the right of Doolittle? The man with his thumb in his pocket?

Thank you for uploading File:400-202xtra.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:09, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:EX25G2.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ww2censor (talk) 15:16, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Fifinella.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Denniss (talk) 17:43, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

G12 copyvio - Stars and Stripes is only partially funded by the DoD - their website says "Stories and photos by Stars and Stripes staffers are copyrighted, and may not be reprinted or used without permission."
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. XLerate (talk) 10:30, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Vc46.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sreejith K (talk) 13:24, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:P38s 1945 large.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting[edit]
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:36, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
