==[[:Image:Sss.JPG]]==
Hi, Geographer! Thanks for uploading the photo of [[Convict Lake]]. I noticed that it didn't have an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|image copyright tag]]. If you're releasing it (and other photos) under GFDL, could you add <nowiki>{{GFDL}}</nowiki> to the image description page? Thanks!! -- [[User:Hike395|hike395]] 11:26, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

:Same with [[:Image:01520008.jpg]]. Really nice pic! -- [[User:Hike395|hike395]]

== GE Building ==

--Hey, I like the photo you added for the GE Building, but the time stamp needs to be taken out using Photoshop. If you'd like me to, I can easily handle it. Just let me know. --[[User:Jleon|Jleon]] 15:47, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

--OK, there it is. I also uploaded it as a JPEG for slightly better clarity. --[[User:Jleon|Jleon]] 12:43, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

== Time stamp ==

--Hi geographer, I'm not too familiar with the clone stamp tool you mentioned, but the way I usually do it is my using the "eye dropper" tool to match the colors surrounding the time stamp and then zooming in close and using a small paint brush to carefully cover it up. If you'd like, you can post your pictures onto my talk page and I can see what I'm able to do with them. Some are easier to work on than others. I've noticed some of the ones you have posted, like the Chrysler Building and Lincoln Center and I think they are really great, so I would defintely be willing to help you with any others. --[[User:Jleon|Jleon]] 00:59, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== [[:Image:Sss.JPG]] ==

I see you requested deletion of this image even though it's tagged, sourced and still used in a number of articles. Could you please tell me why you want this deleted (and use <nowiki>{{db|reason}}</nowiki> next time round)? - [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm]]|[[User talk:MacGyverMagic|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] June 28, 2005 08:30 (UTC)

Thanks for the neat photos on my little article!  Nice memories, too.  I'd have loved to have taken a few myself but I haven't lived in the area for more than fifteen years. - [[User:Lucky 6.9|Lucky 6.9]] 7 July 2005 06:16 (UTC)

==Los Angeles photo==

Yo.  I just reinserted the photo DowntownLosAngeles.jpg on the Los Angeles page again.  Can you please explain on the [[Talk:Los Angeles]] page why you believe LosAngeles05.jpg is better?  I personally prefer DowntownLosAngeles.jpg because one can actually make out the specific towers that are characteristic of the L.A. downtown skyline, as opposed to a bunch of distant blobs looming over the L.A. sprawl.  

Also, please note both photos appear to be by the same photographer, Thomas Pintaric, and he has granted permission to use them to Wikipedia under the GFDL.  So this is not a copyvio issue.

--[[User:Coolcaesar|Coolcaesar]] 01:40, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

== Los Angeles photo ==

Hello:

Besides the de-emphasis of the city's skyline, I dislike the LosAngeles05.jpg photo because it shows Los Angeles on an overcast day during the second wettest winter in recorded history.  Los Angeles, as you probably know, is usually sunny and dry.  Also, I am not sure if L.A.'s sprawl is really that notable a feature, since many other cities are surrounded by enormous sprawl as well (like New York City and Atlanta).  

However, I agree that keeping DowntownLosAngeles.jpg on the Los Angeles page and putting LosAngeles05.jpg on the Global cities page is a reasonable compromise.  Feel free to put Los Angeles05.jpg back on Global cities anytime---although if I can find a similar photo (skyline and sprawl) taken on a sunny day, I will put that there instead.

== RE: Social Process ==

Hello! You asked what social processes I'm interested in -
I'm interested a lot in transit/transportation and how that affects people's conception and use of their city and region. I'm interested in city form and the particular processes that lead to it. I'm interested in the individual ways individual people use and think of their city and how all those different conceptions add to a coherent whole. Like why do people choose to live in the particular neighborhoods they choose? What parts of the city do different people know and how far away from home do they go? What makes people comfortable or afraid in different neighborhoods? Why are some people comfortable in areas that others fear? 

You also asked what I think about ethnic enclaves and social segregation in LA -
I think the degree of separation between different populations is amazing. Like how Westsiders are afraid of Hollywood (and terrified of Westlake). They have no idea what the city is all about there. But the same is true for people in those neighborhoods - they never go to the Westside. People tend to have a solid idea of what Los Angeles is and what it's all about, but that conception varies sharply among different groups, and people seem to tend to associate only with members of their own group. That said, I don't see any "evil" inherent in the ethnicity-based spatial segregation that some people like to denounce. It's like gas stations - they like to be situated next to each other. It only makes sense that a new business dealing primarily in, say, Korean language would choose to locate near other Korean-language businesses. Customers looking for service in Korean go to that part of town to find it. I don't see the spatial differentiation in this respect as racism. However, the fact that minorities tend to occupy less-desirable land probably has something to do with current and past prejudices. And white-westsider fear of minority neighborhoods might be rooted in a subconcious racist fear. However - I think the different "ethnic" neighborhoods is what makes LA amazing. That's why I never want to leave.

Does this address your question? What do you think? [[User:EmergentProperty|EmergentProperty]] 01:34, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

== Coastal cities ==

FYI, some citie, like [[Long Beach, California]] have their own categories, and those categories are subcategories of things like [[:category: Coastal cities in the United States]]. Thanks anyway! -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 08:03, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

== [[Health geography]] ==

I moved medical geography to health geography. Since you created the article, I thought I'd let you know. [[User:MattKingston|Matt]] 17:14, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

== Images ==

Thanks again for contributing these informative photos. I edited [[:Image:SanGabrielMountains.jpg]] in order to straighten the horizon, which was a little crooked. In the process the resolution dropped slightly. I didn't want to lose anything on the left side so I actually copied over the bottom left so the white space wouldn't show. At the same time I darkened it a little to improve the contrast. I'll edit the image page for [[:Image:Western sangabrielmounatins.jpg]] and identify as much as I can, but I don't think that Strawberry is visible. Cheers, -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 06:13, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

:PS: If you're interested in Strawberry Peak some of us are climbing its interesting west ridge on April 15. You are welcome to join us if you're fit and not afraid of heights. Send me an email if you want more info. A general description of the route is here:[http://www.dankat.com/advents/strawb.htm]. Cheers, -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 06:58, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

::I know from personal knowledge that someone died this spring, and I have read of many other deaths, due to accidents or illness. I'll find some cites. -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 06:16, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
::I might add that [[Tahquitz]] is arguably a part of San Jacinto, though few that are climbing it are headed for the summit. Accidents there add to the statistic. -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 06:20, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

:::Here you go. http://www.rmru.org/missions2000s.htm. PS: Strawberry PK was awesome, but too cloudy to get a clear view of any of the surrounding peaks. I'd hoped to take pictures of the local terrain, but no such luck. Cheers, -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 08:17, 16 April 2006 (UTC)   -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 08:17, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

::::PS: the geology of the Southern California mountains is unique and remarkable. If you've ever taken a class or have sources it'd be great to expand out coverage of Southern California geology. Regarding hiking, there's snow still in the high summits, yikes. A planned trip may have to be rescheduled, and we might do Strawberry Peak again as a lower, unofficial alternate, this Sunday. -[[User:Will Beback|Will Beback]] 09:45, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

== Plant identifications ==

The ''Cucurbita'' is almost certainly ''C. foetidissima'', the calabazilla, rather than ''C. palmata''. ''C. palmata'' is normally found in the desert, but ''C. foetidissima'' would be common in the Puente Hills.

I'm not good with cultivated plants, and all I can tell you about this one is that it is in the [[Asteraceae]]. I suspect it's one of the South African introductions.--[[User:Curtis Clark|Curtis Clark]] 14:56, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

== Edit summaries ==

I have noted that you often edit without an [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]]. Please do your best to '''always fill in the summary field'''. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! <!-- Template:Summary2 -->  ''[[User:BlankVerse|<sup><span style="color:green;">Blank</span></sup>]][[User talk:BlankVerse|<sup><span style="color:#F88017;">Verse</span></sup>]]'' 09:58, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

:The Wikipedia has numerous [[WP:RULES|Policies and guidelines]] and it's hard to know them all. One of the guidelines mentioned in the [[Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset|Simplified Ruleset]] is "Decent edit summaries", which is further explained at [[Help:Edit summary]]. All that is really needed to help editors looking through their [[Wikipedia:watchlist|watchlist]]s or the editors doing [[Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol|Recent changes patrol]], however, is a very basic description. If you add a photo to the page, all you need to put in the edit summary is "+ photo". If you move a photo, add "moved photo". You can even set your user [[Help:Preferences|Preferences]] to prompt you if you leave the edit summary field blank. 

:If you look at your [[Special:Contributions/Geographer|recent contributions]], you can see that you have left the edit summary field blank, let the mediawiki software fill the edit summary (for image uploads), or used the default section header in most cases (If there was an edit summary, it will be in parentheses). The reason that I commented about your lack of edit summaries is that yesterday you did a bunch of fairly quick edits to articles on Southern California topics that were on my watchlist. That can look suspicious because I will sometimes see the same sort of pattern when someone is spamming SoCal articles.

:I know that I've usually been pretty lazy about using the default section headers, but I'm now trying to add something more than the default. For example, if I delete some spam from the external links, my edit summary still uses the default, but I then add "- spam", so the Edit summary reads <nowiki>"/* External links */ - spam"</nowiki>.

== Advice requested ==

I've been attempting to overview and tidy up the geography cats which involve the places where people live. From the top level down to local neighbourhoods. There has been some overlapping and various mis-routings. It's been interesting looking at it all. However, there appear to be two useful ways of doing it - by region, and by size. And these can operate side by side quite usefully. The by region isn't a problem. But the by size has become difficult because [[User:Hmains]] wishes to use the term settlements to cover all sizes of communities, and has altered dictionary definitions [http://www.answers.com/settlement&r=67] to fit his own understanding of the term -
[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Settlement&diff=prev&oldid=110496009]. Community appears to be the term used most often to describe the places where people live, regardless of size. This is the definition of community - [http://www.answers.com/community&r=67]. I did some sorting, placing the cat Human communities under Human geography. Human communities splitting into Urban geography and Rural geography. And those splitting into appropriate sized communities - cities, districts, neighbourhoods, villages, settlements, etc. Hmains has reverted much of my work, and insists on settlements being the term we should use - basing it on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2007_January_18#Category:Settlements_by_region| this decision], which was a declined proposal to rename Settlements by region to Populated places by region. What do you think? Is settlement an acceptable term for covering human communities ranging from well established cities down to refuge camps. Is Human community a viable alternative? Are there other choices (apart from populated places of course!)? I have started a discussion [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Geography#Advice_requested here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Categories#Advice_requested here], with the above wording, but no response as yet. Am I doing the right thing?  [[User:SilkTork|SilkTork]] 19:16, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

==Geographer Classification==

Hello Geographer, sorry for the quite long wait for a response I only really go on Wikipedia in the summer holiday period due to other commitments. With regards to the classification of geographers I agree with you that classifying them according to nationality and not putting them in a Geographers category is a problem, I shall see what I can do to get them all in the gegrapher catergory. 

In terms of geographers being on wiikipedia, i'm not aware of any policy surrounding them as long as they meet the notability criteria there should be no problem with adding any, although, I think we should be weary about adding any geographer and only add those who are international experts. Prehaps we along with the geography wikiproject could draw up some guide-lines on the matter? [[User:AlexD|AlexD]] 13:42, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

== CA copyright law for artworks ==

Hello Geographer,
Even though you shot your own photos of the LA Central Library, you must credit the artists whose work you also photographed in the large hall. The info is well documented all over the internet.  They include Thurman Statom (chandeliers) and Ann Preston (free-standing lamps).  This is California law that you may not be aware of. Architecture is not protected by copyrights but artworks are.  You must get permission and cite the artists. You cannot shoot photos of MacGuire Gardens onthe same property, for example, without including images of the work by Jud Fine.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Uclapowellsnow1932.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, 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, 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 {{Tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], use a tag such as {{tlp|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 [https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=upload&user=Geographer this link]. '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If the image is copyrighted under a [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|non-free license]] (per [[Wikipedia:Fair use]]) then '''the image will be deleted [[WP:CSD#I7|48 hours]] after 02:25, 23 December 2007 (UTC)'''.

==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Lost Horizons.jpg==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Lost Horizons.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images/media|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]].

Hello. I would like to ask you about [[:Image:Mast.jpg]], which you uploaded image almost 3 years ago. In December 2007, another user uploaded another (and much larger) image under the same name, still using you as the source and licensing.

== [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art]] ==
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either  via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art]], a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the [[Los Angeles County Museum of Art]] (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art]]. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! <span style="font-family:Verdana; ">'''[[User:Howcheng|<span style="color:#33C;">howcheng</span>]]'''  <small>{[[User talk:Howcheng|chat]]}</small></span> 23:54, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi Georgrapher. I removed the image of President Nixon as an infant because it is lacking a source.

==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:File:Trinitychurch ny.jpg]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:File:Trinitychurch ny.jpg]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

==File permission problem with File:Union Jack Newspaper.jpg==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=|link=]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Union Jack Newspaper.jpg]]'''. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license. 

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either 
* make a note permitting reuse under the [[WP:CC-BY-SA|CC-BY-SA]] or another acceptable free license (see [[Wikipedia:File copyright tags/Free licenses|this list]]) '''at the site of the original publication'''; or
* Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to '''{{NoSpamEmail|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 [[WP:CONSENT|here]]. If you take this step, add {{tl|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 '''{{NoSpamEmail|permissions-en|wikimedia.org}}'''. 

If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], use a tag such as {{tlp|non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at [[Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use]], and add a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|rationale]] justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See [[Wikipedia:File copyright tags]] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

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. You can find a list of files you have created in [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Geographer}} your upload log]. '''Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Files|criteria for speedy deletion]]. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:image use policy|image use policy]].

==License tagging for File:Qing Ao Bay.JPG==
Thanks for uploading [[:File:Qing Ao Bay.JPG]].  You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image.  Wikipedia uses a set of [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|image copyright tags]] to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/All|this list]], click on [[:File:Qing Ao Bay.JPG|this link]], then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the tag to the image's description.  If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions]].  Thank you for your cooperation. --[[User:ImageTaggingBot|ImageTaggingBot]] ([[User talk:ImageTaggingBot|talk]]) 07:06, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[Topocide]] ==
[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]]

The article [[Topocide]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32; because of the following concern:
:'''[[WP:NEO]] etc. Unreferenced, orphan. Nothing obvious to redirect it to (e.g. there isn't a Wiktionary entry).'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Topocide|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:DexDor|DexDor]] ([[User talk:DexDor|talk]]) 21:56, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

== PUF tags ==

Hello,

Recently, you removed tags listing a discussion at [[WP:PUF]] for two files, [[:File:Yo-ho Brewing IPA 2013.jpg]] and [[:File:HR4437.jpg]].  The PUF tag is not to be removed until the debate is closed.  Further, I noticed that you accompanied the removal with a relicensing under CC0.  The problem is that each file is argued to be a derivative work of a non-free work, so unless the '''original''' work is licensed under a free license, we cannot use the photo on Wikipedia except under [[WP:NFCC]].

Dear fellow Wikipedian,

The LA Wikipedia community has three events in mid-February -- please consider attending!

First, we have a Valentine's Day edit-a-thon appropriately named '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/LA/Redondo Loves Wikipedia|Redondo Loves Wikipedia]]''', which will take place at the Redondo Beach Public Library from 10am to 1pm on Saturday, February 14.  Join library staff, the Redondo Beach Historical Society, and others to help improve Wikipedia's coverage of Redondo Beach!

Second, we have a '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/LA/Wik-Ed Women|Wik-Ed Women editing session]]''' on Tuesday, February 17 from 6pm to 10pm at the Los Angeles Contemporary Archive downtown.  This series of informal get-togethers is designed to encourage Los Angeles women-in-the-arts (though all are welcome!) to contribute their expertise to Wikipedia, specifically expanding content about women artists.

Third, we have an '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/LA/EOB/Unforgetting 8|Unforgetting LA]]''' event put on by East of Borneo in collaboration with the [[Getty Research Institute]].  Come help improve Wikipedia's coverage of LA design and architecture, and have an awesome free day at the museum -- parking will be validated for edit-a-thon participants! If you'd like to use particular books from GRI's great collection, be sure to email before 2/13 (instructions at event page).

And be sure to check out our [[Wikipedia:Meetup/LA|main meetup page]], because we already have three SoCal events scheduled for early March!

Dear fellow Wikipedian,

I would like to personally invite you to the March edition of the [[Wikipedia:Meetup/LA/Wik-Ed Women|Wik-Ed Women meetup]], which will take place on March 15, from 6-10 in the evening. It will occur at Los Angeles Contemporary Archive, 2245 E Washington Blvd, Los Angeles, California 90021 (downtown LA -- [https://goo.gl/maps/7NQBg map]). The building has a pink top with old signage for American Accessories, Inc. dba Princess Accessories ([http://www.lacarchive.com/images.pdf Photos] <small>[PDF]</small>). There is on-site parking in the back, which also has an entrance. If you cannot attend in person, you are more than willing to work remotely, as we appreciate all help that you can provide. Finally, [https://www.facebook.com/events/758449097623273/ here is a link] to the Facebook event, in case you want to invite friends, as we are always looking for new editors to help expand coverage of women on Wikipedia!

==Image copyright problem with File:Infant Nixon.jpg==
[[Image:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|alt=Image Copyright problem|link=]]
Thank you for uploading [[:File:Infant Nixon.jpg]]. 

This image is a [[derivative work]], containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. 

While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.

Wikipedia takes [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the '''license''' and the '''source''' of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a '''[[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|copyright tag]]''' to the [[Help:Image page|image description page]].

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Geographer}} your upload log].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]]. {{You can request undeletion}} Thanks again for your cooperation.<!-- Template:Di-no license-notice --> — [[User:Diannaa|Diannaa]] ([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]) 00:04, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:File:Widmer Brothers Hefeweizen.jpg]]'''. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under [[WP:NFCC|non-free content criteria]], but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable.

==Image source and copyright licensing problem with File:Al-Watan (Qatar).jpg==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left|Image Copyright problem|link=]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Al-Watan (Qatar).jpg]]'''. 

This image is a [[derivative work]], containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. 

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create the original work contained within this image, you will need to specify 

# the creator of the original work
# the copyright status of the original work, usually indicated by adding a licensing tag. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], use a tag such as {{tl|non-free fair use}} 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 derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Geographer}} in your upload log]. '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described in [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#F4|section F4 of the criteria for speedy deletion]]. If the image is copyrighted under a [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|non-free license]] (per [[Wikipedia:Fair use]]) then '''the image will be deleted [[WP:CSD#I7|48 hours]] after 15:28, 9 September 2017 (UTC)'''. If the file is already gone, you can still make a [[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request for undeletion]] and ask for a chance to fix the problem.<!-- Template:You can request undeletion --> If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

You probably don't remember taking this picture, but I managed to dig it back up while cleaning up the COI mess that happened at [[Sennheiser]]. The stupid MX400ii dirty buds that were on the article had been bugging me for ages and my own HD6XXs won't get here for about another month, so your picture was perfect. Kudos for the picture, mate!

Dear Geographer,

You're invited to a zoom call, taking place on February 11, with the goal of improving the article on [[Los Angeles]] to [[WP:Featured article|Featured article]] status! I often find it daunting to approach the Big Subjects on my own—so if you, like me, want a time to sit down with fellow dedicated editors and tackle something important and complex, this is the zoom for you! I, unfortunately, have no way to transmit snacks over zoom; but I trust you to exercise good judgement and discretion in selecting snacks of your own. Hope to see you there—if you're interested, '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/Los Angeles/LA to FA 2022|add your name here]]'''!

Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Château Batailley 2011.jpg]]'''. 

This image is a [[derivative work]], containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. 

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. 

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Geographer}} in your upload log].
