Disputed fair use rationale for Image:JimmyRogers.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:JimmyRogers.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 criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 10:58, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:StayAwake.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:StayAwake.jpg. 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 non-free media 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. Rockfang (talk) 17:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Disputed UPX undo and edits

Thank you for reviewing the work on this page. I'm going to bring the changes to the discussion page. I probably should have done that to begin with, but it didn't look like the page has seem much editing for several months.

Thank you --Caernarvon (talk) 14:42, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Good undo yesterday on the Captain Kirk addition, though it was a tiny bit funny! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Caernarvon (talk • contribs) 14:35, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi Mike, thanks for weighing in on the UPX issue. You mentioned that you accept the change - I just wanted to be clear, was that my version of the change suggestion (use new wording, placement in the Academics section) or Mysteryquest's version (use new wording, place it in the Criticism section? Sorry for the confusion - it seemed you were agreeing with me since you were responding to my post, but I was just hoping that it is clear for everyone. --Caernarvon (talk) 04:11, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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.
