File:Killing of Civilian Contractors in Falluja, Iraq 5 - March 31, 2004.jpg
Mutilation of ambushed Coalition Security Contractors in Falluja,Iraq, March 31, 2004

What happened to the image? JDR 19:43, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It was not sourced for months, so it had to be deleted under the new rules. Zach (Sound Off) 19:47, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
New rules? great ... got a wlink to them? I'd like to see the recent info on the image thing.
I did find a copy here (march 31 2004.jpg) ... seem to been off of http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/13180.html (link defunct now) JDR 19:51, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The announcement was at [1], and the rules are now up at WP:CSD. The image history, [2], said the image was tagged with unsourced since July of 2005, which met the new CSD rules. As long as you provide a source and a copyright information tag, like fairuse, then it can be re-uploaded. Zach (Sound Off) 19:59, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Do you know if there is a undeletion for images? I can't rememeber @ the moment.
The image would be template:fairuse from http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/13180.html. I didn't upload it the first time ... but I do remember when it was uploaded (this was a widely known image and news topic).
Just wondering. Sincerely, JDR
There is no undeletion of images, so you have to find the image and re-uploaded it again. All I ask is that you just cite where it came from and what license it is under. Zach (Sound Off) 20:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Shouldn't you have ask the original uploader about the image before the deletion?
Thanks for the info though. Sincerely, JDR 20:16, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I was told by Jimbo to delete on sight and not to contact the uploaders, since most have uploaded to the project and left. Zach (Sound Off) 20:18, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

That's not very nice. A quick preusal of the user wouldn't hurt, though (IMHO). Oh well .... no biggie ... just to let you know, this uploader is active. Sincerely, JDR 20:23, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hey ... I was looking around and ... I found that it'd be a good idea to put in {{subst:Image source|Image:ImageName.jpg}} --~~~~. It's @ Category:Images with unknown source ... and says "if some things can be saved here, or if some images can be inquired about, let's do that." Sincerely, JDR 20:50, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thats new. I also redrew a few images there and at other places, but I think it will be hard to save them all or even most of them. Zach (Sound Off) 21:02, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you know...

Hey, this is Mb1000. Just to let you know, I'm running for adminship, and since we've seen some of each others work (on the article Canadian Heraldic Authority), you might perhaps be able to Support my nomination. Thanks.

By the way, you better vote for me, remember that barnstar I awarded you? (kidding) --Mb1000 20:47, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I voted Neutral. While you were very civil to me and very helpful in the above article, the problems that users cited, such as the copyvios, is a real concern to me. Zach (Sound Off) 21:05, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the Graphic Designer's Barnstar

Thank you for the barnstar. Very much appreciated! --Durin 21:21, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Your quite welcome. Zach (Sound Off) 22:06, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]


image:cat-stub.png

Please cease immediately from deleting cat-stub.png. As it is, the image in a screenshot from Wikipedia, and a little courtesy note would have reflected much better on your action. Please make a note of it for future references, review and adhere to WP:WQT. Thanks in advance. El_C 00:51, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It should be fine now, but I do not understand why it is a screenshot. Zach (Sound Off) 00:58, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

{{cat-stub}} listed my userpage in the category; and I had issues formatting text with Image:Catstub.gif. El_C 01:09, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. Zach (Sound Off) 01:10, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
