Fair use rationale for Image:BTR 80 diag.gif

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:BTR 80 diag.gif. 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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

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 fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. DarkPhoenix 20:55, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome template

Machan I created a welcome template we could use to welcome Sri Lankan newcomers to Wikipedia. You can see it here Template:Welcome-lk.
Any suggestions to improve it? I thought maybe we could start it off somwthing like

Ayubowan, Hello and Welcome to Wikipedia

If you like it, can you create the Ayobowan text or jpg image, cos I cant make Sinhala fonts right now :( --snowolfD4( talk / @ ) 16:26, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Licensing on images

You seem to have an issue with English or copyright laws or something. There are certain things you should notice when it comes to uploading images and tagging them with their copyright information.

  1. You cannot license copyrighted images as GFDL simply because you feel like it. I've seen through most of your uploaded images, and you license them all as GFDL until someone fixes the license for you.
  2. When others, like myself, fix your licenses on images, or remove incorrect ones, you often just revert them back without giving any edit summary or reasoning anywhere. This is highly disruptive. Please state the reason for what you're doing in that little edit summary box below.

Please correct your behavior so that I won't have to take this further to WP:RFC or similar.

I will revert your faulty revert on Image:Czech_RM70_02.jpg again, and the next time you revert back, please offer a reason, either here or in the edit summary. Thank you.

Shoe Zone

In December last year you reverted deliberate advertisments on the article Shoe Zone. I've just reverted another advert on it. Also I've categorised it under the category, shoe companies. So it's all sorted out now. Rasillon 11:28, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lahiru

Please remove the pictures from Gongala Massacre. Among other things, it's highly disrepectful of the dead to be used in such a manner. I appreciate your attention in this. NinaNina Odell 16:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I realize that these pictures are elsewhere, but they do not belong on Wikipedia. If people want to see them, let them go to those sites. Thank you. NinaNina Odell 16:58, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Being disrespectful would be the last thing i do. I have up most respect to the dead innocent Sinhalese and that feeling led me to post these pictures. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ Walkie-talkie 17:06, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. One, with the soldiers. Please. NinaNina Odell 17:05, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Currently, there are as many pictures as text. There are an inordinate number of pictures for an article of this size. Also, the article needs to "move on" as it were, to describe any potential aftermath, response from the Sri Lankan government, etc. I understand completely your desire for the inclusion of these photographs. Please consider Wikipedia. Sincerely, Nina Odell 17:10, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I really appreciate all your efforts to help the overall quality of this article. You fixed things I don't know how to fix. Thank you. Nina Odell 17:13, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You are welcome Nina, I have removed two pics on your request but please do not ask from me to remove other two as well because you have to understand pain in my heart. 17:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Possibly unfree Image:Kent-farm2.jpg

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Kent-farm2.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 17:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
(also Image:Kids were in kent.JPG, Image:Kent-farm.jpg, Image:LTTE barbarism in Kabitigollewa.jpg, Image:LTTE barbarism in Kabitigollewa.jpg)
These images do not qualify as free-use because the copyright holder prohibits their modification and redistribution (check the note on derivative images at {{CopyrightedFreeUseProvidedThat}}). The provisions outlined at the source websites most likely deal with fair use, they are not an unconditional release of copyright. Use of these photographs may qualify under Wikipedia fair use criteria, but then they will have to be tagged with something like {{HistoricPhoto}} and each instance of use would have to be backed up by a fair use rationale. I'm sorry to say that I am not going to remove the PUI tags from them at this time, but if you desire to contest their license status, please feel free to do so at Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_images#January_2. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 17:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I do understand

A drop in your heart is an ocean in mine. I do this for the sake of us all. This article and others must be neutral. Nina Odell 15:05, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have no intention or desire to rename this article. It's in the body of the article that neutral language must be used. As I understand it, this is a rebellion, and not yet a civil war. So even the phrase war crime cannot as yet be used. Until the Sri Lankan Government openly declares war on the LTTE, these are murders. Read the article you gave me again and look at the language. Nina Odell 17:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Remember too, that all these events are relatively current, and such can open fresh wounds for the victims' families (even distant family members). Please consider this in relation to the photos. Nina Odell 17:20, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Fundamentally, I disagree with no one here. There may be a mis-communication. What is your remedy? Nina Odell 17:40, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Frankly, I misread the situation. I had no idea that there were multiple editors here. I also think that this may be our fork in the road. I won't get into edit wars. I've done all I can, and trust Peter with moving forward. Best of fortune to you, Nina Odell 04:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A request

I think you are following my edits, there is a policy against it. Please read it before I escalate this. Thanks RaveenS

No, actually I didn't. If you look at carefully on my userpage you will notice an userbox called "This user is a newpage patroller." --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ Walkie-talkie 16:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It is a damn good excuse:))), one even I would use but I will keep an eye on this situation in the future but as needed in resolving conflicts I have made my request to you. Thanks RaveenS

State terrorism in Sri Lanka

Hi Lahiru_k you had reverted a link in this article saying its spam, probably you didn't watch the video. Its a BBC documentry on JVP insurrection and other humanitarian issues in Sri Lanka. No worries I have restored the link. ŇëŧΜǒńğëŗ 14:13, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
