Freqently Asked Questions (FAQ)
|
Q: Why have you reduced the size of my file? A: In accordance with Misplaced Pages:Non-free content criteria 3(b): An entire work is not used if a portion will suffice. Low, rather than high-resolution/fidelity/bit rate, is used (especially where the original could be used for deliberate copyright infringement). If you believe I have made an error in reducing the image, please let me know. If there was no error is the lowering in the resolution, please keep the image reduced and keep it tagged until an administrator has deleted the larger versions of the image.

Q: Why have you tagged my file as {{di-bad fair use}} 10(c)? A: I have tagged it as in violation of Misplaced Pages:Non-free content criteria 10(c): The name of each article (a link to each article is also recommended) in which fair use is claimed for the item, and a separate, specific non-free use rationale for each use of the item, as explained at Misplaced Pages:Non-free use rationale guideline. The rationale is presented in clear, plain language and is relevant to each use. Meaning, provide a fair use rationale on the file description page, every time you use it on a different article. Otherwise it does not meet criteria for inclusion and it can be nominated for deletion.
|
Q: Why have you removed my image from an article because of 10(c)? A: The file does not have a fair use rationale on the file description page for why it is on that article. If you add a rationale, you are free to use the image on the article once again.
|
Q: Why have you tagged my file as {{di-bad fair use}} 10(a)? A: I have tagged it as in violation of Misplaced Pages:Non-free content criteria 10(a): Identification of the source of the material, supplemented, where possible, with information about the artist, publisher and copyright holder; this is to help determine the material's potential market value. A source for where the image was taken from needs to be specified, otherwise it will be marked for deletion.
|
Q: Why have you added {{deletable image-caption}} to an article? A: This is to notify users that the image next to the caption is a candidate for speedy deletion in a number of days due to problems specified on the image description page.
|
Q: Couldn't you just fix this image problem yourself? A: While I tag and re-sizing images, I do keep a look-out for things I can fix, rather than tag it for fixing. There is somewhere near 340,000 non-free images on Misplaced Pages, so I can't do this alone.
|
Q: Are you an administrator? A: No, I am not an administrator here. I can not protect or delete pages, move over redirects, or block users. For a full list of privileges I have, and projects where I have them, see this page. Also, if you offer to nominate me for adminiship, I will probably decline. I have had a few nominations in the past, the last being in 2006. If I ever run again, it will be a long time from now.

done
Done, with help from Yonatan, Moe, can you go ahead and get rid you your CSD tags? --rogerd 22:34, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- I can get the speedy tags, but I may take a few minutes since my computer isn't reading the large archives well. — Moe ε 22:39, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- I did some reverting on 20-23 and also undeleted User:Moe Epsilon/Header. I haven't done too much undeleting/restoring before. I think I got it done ok. --rogerd 22:47, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I think everything is fine now. Thank you for your help :) — Moe ε 22:53, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
Template: Amazonimages
Feel free to delete the template now. I have finished removing the template from the Images which it transcluded. In addition to that, I tagged any image for deletion if they had no source other than the template. — Moe ε 03:38, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks so much for unlinking this. I'm usually pretty knowledgable about what turns up at TfD, but I still freeze when we decide to delete a widely-used copyright template. I have no experience with images or copyright and I intend on keeping it that way. Thanks! RyanGerbil10(Don't ask 'bout Camden) 20:24, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
- No problem :) — Moe ε 20:26, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Extra Spelling templates
So noted and deleted. If they want them back, take it to DRV. By the way, thanks for responding on my talk page. RyanGerbil10(Don't ask 'bout Camden) 02:37, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

- Hello Aharleygirl. I see that you requested that I re-upload a video from YouTube that I made from an account there. There's an issue with that:
- I don't have a YouTube account and I wonder how you got me confused with him.
- Eric82oslo is not me, and the account located on YouTube in relation to that name says that the account is suspended and it makes videos like the one you requested, so I assume thats who you mean.
- It appears the person who made the YouTube account made one on Misplaced Pages located at User:Eric82oslo, I would ask him to re-upload any video for you.

BJAODN
It was not an ultimatum. It was a request. — Rickyrab | Talk 23:40, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- That's your opinion. — Rickyrab | Talk 23:42, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
I apologize for revert warring. Would you mind if I and/or the other editors interested in BJAODN have an edit history of the deleted subpages, please? It would be appreciated. — Rickyrab | Talk 23:50, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
