Blade server image[edit]

Hi,

I noticed that the image Blade.jpg which you uploaded is tagged as "hardware logo". Isn't that wrong? The image adds much to the blade server article (so, if you have others... :)), and it would be a pity if the image were removed only due to an oversight about license info.

PS: you can reply here, so that we have the whole conversation in one place.

Thanks,

  • oh good point, thanks for pointing that out. i cant find wnat tag to use with it though, (im relatively new to wiki) what tag would you reccomend? ^_^

Skaterblo 16:48, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oh, no problem. I'm not a veteran either :) I assumed the photo was taken by you. Did you download it from a website, instead? If so, please tell me the URL (or, anyway, what your source was), so that I can double check --Gennaro Prota(talk) 01:00, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think we should ask for permission if we want to use it (see Finding images tutorial). I'll try finding another, free, image. In case of failure we will ask (I don't see any serious reason why they should give a negative answer. Had I built such a machine I would be proud of the request :)). --Gennaro Prota(talk) 17:47, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lmao true, I would be too. Any ideas where I might find the specs of wikis servers? And we should just ask outright, it would be better than a random found image. Skaterblo
  • Are you thinking to the fact that they are probably blade servers? :) That's a great idea. I think you can ask Angela. As to the article I found other 4 images that could add much to it. Hopefully we'll get a permission for all of them, though that could require time. If we have the photos of the wiki servers and they are blade servers then better! The four images I found are at:
  1. http://www.markiiisys.com/articles/ibmbladecenter.html
  2. http://www.rackmount.com/Rackmt/ATXBladeS100.htm (the 42U rack)
  3. http://www.rackmountmart.com/prodspics/rm8003-01.jpg
  4. http://www.smartvm.com/
  5. http://www.intel.com/design/servers/blades/sbxd62/pix/sbxd62_lg.jpg
Cheers,

  • Those images are great, ill upload two of them, and insert them into the article. Problem solved :D {but what tag should i use :(}
  • Sorry for being unclear. Those images will require authorization as well, just like the one we already have. I didn't find any image available under a free license. So the problem is not solved, we just have -potentially- more material for illustration. --Gennaro Prota(talk) 17:05, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • ohps :( ok so where do we get the authorisation for these pictures? :S do we ask wiki, or the people who own the copyright/took the picture?
  • Hi, I got a message on my talk page claiming I had disappeared and suddenly stopped a conversion. However it was an "unsigned" message coming from I.P. address 86.12.230.89. From the logs I guess it was you; anyway, even if it weren't you... I have still to reply here. Sorry for that, I just forgot. Yes, it's a matter of sending a boilerplate request to the copyright owner(s). It's all explained in the link I provided above (Finding images tutorial - Ask for permission), which also gives many canned texts for various usages. I haven't sent any request for now, as I've been caught up by various articles and things on wikicommons but I'll do that. I must do that! :) (I'm a little lazy when it comes to these sorts of things) --Gennaro Prota•Talk 00:59, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, the unsigned message was from me, sorry, I didnt realise I was not logged in. Have you got about asking permission for an image yet, or should I?
  • I haven't. If you go for it please use one of the forms recommended at the page I linked to in my previous reply. Thanks. --Gennaro Prota•Talk 23:24, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've already asked the copyright owners of three of the images, I'll most likely have a reply in around two days. I'll keep you posted.
Going back towards the left margin :)
Good idea, was getting a bit cramped :P
  • None of them have replied yet =( But oh, thats intresting! I thought it had slipped through the RC patrol officers, obviously not xP

  • I havent, ^_^ However, other people are taking their time to reply..
  • In fact I'm under the impression someone quickly replied with a canned message, without considering that Wikipedia is somehow a special case. I find it odd that they can donate hardware which you can photograph yourself but will not allow you to reproduce a simple photo taken by them. Also, the message says there's a chance to get a written permission, which was exactly what we were looking for. One has also to be lucky that someone with a bit of common sense happens to read the e-mail :-/ —Gennaro Prota•Talk 09:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • That was the end of the email, I think it was a canned reply edited slightly.
  • Oh, I see now :) They are not negating consensus. They are just saying that the procedure is to send a written request to the address above. Well, that's reasonable, after all, as they want their lawyers to examine the issue. I'll see if Angela is online. I think she knows if it is worth to send the letter or not. —Gennaro Prota•Talk 19:01, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus/AID[edit]

Why did you remove the votes of (Evman2010 (talk · contribs), Eshcorp (talk · contribs), Lord_Eru (talk · contribs) and Petrichor (talk · contribs) from the "Jesus" nomination at WP:AID? Arch O. La Grigory Deepdelver 00:21, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can't tell whether or not a user is active from the color of their name. The name is red if they haven't created a userpage, but some active editors go a long time without creating a userpage. If an editor uses raw code for their signature, as Lord Eru and I do, then we can set the color in our sigs regardless of whether or not there is a userpage (but note the color of the Lord Eru link above, which is not part of his sig). The best way to tell if they are still active is to click the "contribs" link as above, although the definition of "active" can be subjective. Lord Eru is obviously still active; he revoted on Jesus, and has been actively voting on other AID candidates. Evman2010 made two edits, both on April 14; apparently no longer active. Eshcorp last edited on May 20 and is still active. Petrichor's last edit was on May 9, right after voting on May 8, and Petrichor was definitely active when he voted.

The standard for voting, though, is not how active a user is, but rather "To vote or nominate you have to be a registered user with at least one contribution that is not a vote." Presumably other voting rules also apply, such as no sockpuppetry. Even Evman2010 meets the minimum standard, albeit barely. Anyway, I also raised this issue Wikipedia_talk:Article_Improvement_Drive#Votes_removed_with_no_reason_given. Arch O. La Grigory Deepdelver 17:59, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't replaced the votes myself. For one thing, I first wanted to check whether or not their removal was valid. For two things, I thought it might be improper for me to restore the votes, since I nominated the article. However, if the person restoring the votes is the same person who removed them in the first place, I don't think that there will be any doubt that the restored votes are legitimate. Arch O. La Grigory Deepdelver 18:36, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possible copyright violation at motionless electromagnetic generator article[edit]

The article for Motionless electromagnetic generator said that it was directly lifted from another web page. As nothing on that page indicates that the information is public domain or otherwise freely licensed, Wikipedia must immediately remove the text and investigate whether it is a copyright violation, or risk being legally liable.

Because of the serious nature of a copyright violation, Wikipedia is very strict about disallowing the removal of the "possible copyright violation" notice from an article, considering it vandalism. Please leave the article alone, or if you wish to write a copyright-free version, follow the instructions in the notice that currently appears at the article that details an acceptable way of doing this. If you have any questions, or relevant information on the copyright status of the text that was removed from the article, please leave me a note on my talk page. Thanks. — Saxifrage 00:01, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


International copyright law[edit]

I read your comment at Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2006 June 2/Articles, which shows a common mistake about copyright law. Everything that is created is copyright to the creator, and no notice is required. Quite the opposite: explicit permission to use a copyrighted work must be given or posted by the creator (i.e., a license), or they must explicitly release their work into the public domain.

There are some few exceptions, such as products of the US Governement and some others, as well as very old works that are not protected by current copyright law. However, these are very few and uncommon. Images, text, and all else that you find online is copyrighted unless explicitly marked otherwise, no © symbol necessary. — Saxifrage 20:22, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What user pages are not for[edit]

You may want to read Wikipedia:User page and What Wikipedia is not #6: a free host, blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. The community generally grants a lot of leeway in what people put in their user space so long as it aids the project, but some of your pages are of questionable use to Wikipedia. Specifically, User:Skaterblo/An Encyclopedia and User:Skaterblo/My Music are not likely to be considered a valuable use of Wikipedia's computing resources. — Saxifrage 00:12, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright[edit]

The image that you uploaded, Image:Hennin copy small.jpg, is incorrectly tagged and is a copyright violation. The source website does not contain anything that indicates the images hosted there are free for use or otherwise released from copyright protection. Please stop adding images to Wikipedia from websites, because 99.999% of images that appear on websites are not free to use. — Saxifrage 18:40, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm sorry, I semm to be in a bad habit of doing everything wrong. Should i use this image, which is on the German article on Hennin? - Skaterblo 21:08, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    There's a learning curve to Wikipedia, and that's okay. Sometimes the best way to learn is to try something and learn from the successes and mistakes. :)
    That image is perfect: it has traceable source information (though it's in German) and it's clearly in the public domain. And, it must be added, it's a nice graphic. — Saxifrage 21:46, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A short Esperanzial update[edit]

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You've marked this image as {{PD-self}} but you also state it was taken by your friend. As such, this template cannot be used for this image. Instead, your friend needs to decide the licensing terms. Perhaps something like the following:

Picture taken by Joe Schmoe (my friend) on some date in Belfast. Joe Schmoe releases all rights to the image.

...and then use {{PD-release}} instead.

If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. howcheng {chat} 00:18, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PD-release is actually incorrect; see below. The photo can be released into PD by the friend, but the photo is just a picture of a mural, which is copyrighted by someone and not in the PD. Tempshill 16:44, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image Tagging for Image:Samarra23.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Samarra23.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

Image:Soccer2.jpg listed for deletion[edit]

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Soccer2.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Fritz S.

Image:SinnFeinMural BogsideArtists.jpg[edit]

Hi,

For your upload Image:SinnFeinMural BogsideArtists.jpg, I changed your public domain tag to the "fairuse" tag. Your friend has the right to release the photo to the public domain, but the photo is actually just a photo of the mural; and the mural is copyrighted by its creators. The mural's image is not in the public domain. Hence, the public domain tags are incorrect. A fair use claim is probably (but not "clearly", IMO) OK. It would be a good idea to fill out the usual fair use claims as requested in Wikipedia:Fair use to explain why it's an OK fair use.

Thanks,

August Esperanza Newsletter[edit]

Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

September Esperanza Newsletter[edit]

Program Feature: Barnstar Brigade
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!
What's New?
September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!
Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there!
The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. The proposals page has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  2. Since the program in development Appretiaion week is getting lots of good ideas, it now has its own subpage.
  3. The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself!
  4. The new Esperanza front page design has but put up - many thanks to all who worked on it!
  5. TangoTango has written a script for a bot that will list new members of Esperanza, which will help those who welcome new Esperanzains greatly!

Orphaned non-free image (Image:SinnFeinMural BogsideArtists.jpg)[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading Image:SinnFeinMural BogsideArtists.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 '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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
