Orphaned non-free media (Image:StancoNYCMay2007.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:StancoNYCMay2007.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. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. β^_command 22:07, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Stanco

Hi there. Just wondering why you recreated and then blanked Robert Stanco when it was AfD'ed yesterday and you asked for it to be deleted? Also, you created and blanked J. Trotter and pointed it to Robert Stanco. What's it all about? Thanks. --EarthPerson 15:55, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Robert Stanco . . .

Hi there. Regarding your question: "Just wondering why you recreated and then blanked Robert Stanco when it was AfD'ed yesterday and you asked for it to be deleted? Also, you created and blanked J. Trotter and pointed it to Robert Stanco. What's it all about?"

I am a college student, doing a paper on one our Alumni who is a writer. His name is Robert Stanco. He also contributed several short fictional stories to "men's magazines" (i.e., Penthouse, etc.), under the pseudonym "J. Trotter." When my paper was completed, I thought it was pretty good and, since there was no information on Mr. Stanco anywhere on the 'net, I decided to create a Wikipedia article for him.

After I submitted the article to Wikipedia, I was so excited with my work that I emailed Mr. Stanco to show him his Wikipedia entry. Unfortunately, he was not happy with the article. He mildly took issue with my portrayal of his work as "a commercial failure", but he was downright furious that I had listed his (numerous) arrests in the article. He asked that I either delete my references to his criminal record, or pull the article entirely.

In the meantime, I had been notified by several Wikipedia staff members that my article was marked for "speedy deletion", due to Mr. Stanco's "lack of notability", whatever that is. I disagreed, and temporarily contested its candidacy for deletion on the grounds that Mr. Stanco is somewhat of a public figure in his hometown of Oceanside, New York. His arrest in 2004 was covered by the local television and print news media on Long Island. In fact, I have, in my possession, a VHS video tape of the news coverage of his arrest for bank robbery in December 2004.

However, based on all the resistance I was getting from the Wikipedia staff and Mr. Stanco himself, I decided to simply pull the entire article, rather than fight on two fronts.

I have saved the text and "Wiki formatting" of my article and fully intend to re-submit it after the publication of his next book. This time I will fight to have it made permanent. Qwerty1001 06:50, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! The only advice I have to offer is, have a careful read of Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons before re-submitting the article, and be very sure that you have solid reliable sources for anything in the article which could be potentially libellous, such as references to the subject using drugs, and having a criminal record. --Stormie 12:05, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Battered Beyond Recognition.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Battered Beyond Recognition.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 image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 23:38, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:Battered Beyond Recognition Cover.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Battered Beyond Recognition.jpg. The copy called Image:Battered Beyond Recognition.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 23:44, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:HelstarADistantThunder.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:HelstarADistantThunder.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:06, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
