May 2008 - New York And Ottawa Railway

Hi, the recent edit you made to New York and Ottawa Railway has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. treelo _talk 20:28, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Treelo. The edit you reverted on the NY&O I put back. The reason I did this is because the map is incorrect or rather incomplete. It only shows 74 miles of the entire 130 mile route, ending at the Canadian-American border. The railway continued into Canada another 56 miles. If a map is going to be included, it should show the entire route, not just a portion. Just doesn't make sense. I may scan one of the timetables I own, showing the full route, and upload that. For now I just wanted to clarify. I had family work on that line, I've studied it for years and have written articles and a manuscript of its history. All I do on that page is either correct what has been falsely posted or add any new information I or my partners have come across that is important.

Thanks for uploading the timetable map (it *is* better than my map), but you should upload it as a different image, and specify different copyright information. RussNelson (talk) 00:50, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Russ, I've uploaded my map in a proper manner and left yours intact, but it is no longer associated with the article.

Bonfire, the map is great, but it doesn't specify a source or a copyright status. Since it appears to have been published after 1923, I fear it probably is under copyright, and eventually, someone will delete it (I could, of course, be wrong). But we could probably get someone to use it as the basis for a free map by requesting it at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Maps. -- Mwanner | Talk 18:29, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

If there is a problem, let me know. I likely have others. Funny thing is that if I find an earlier one from another of my timetables, it will be the same one, only a different issued date. But isn't it 75 years back (which would make it 1933 and this 1930 map would appear to be ok).

In Canada it might be 75 years back, but in the US it is 1923 as a fixed date; since Wikipedia's servers are in the US, it's my understanding that it is US copyright law that governs. So if you have a pre-1923 map that shows the complete route, that should do it. Cheers! -- Mwanner | Talk 11:20, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I found an earlier one, pre-1923, but the funny thing is it is the exact same map. Do you recomment that I scan this new one and upload it or just change the descrption of the original? (This comment was left by me but for some reason Wikipedia says it was unsigned)

If it's identical, I don't see why you can't just change the description. As for the "unsigned" issue, you should add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your posts, and the system will replace them with your "signature" and date (just one of dozens of little things we all have had to learn when we got started here). Hang in there! Mwanner | Talk 23:10, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

The map has been replaced with a different file, indicating both the date and proper copyright statement. Bonfire34 (talk) 13:46, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

And I added a public domain tag. That should make everybody happy (I hope). Cheers! --Mwanner | Talk 11:06, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Map0001.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Map0001.JPG. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this 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. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 19:20, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

I did explain it in the description. I have now editted it to explain it further. I hope that will be enough.

I replaced the image with a different one and specified the proper copyright.

Image without license

Unspecified source/license for Image:Knock Out.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Knock Out.JPG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Feels Like Comin' Home.JPG}

Thank you for uploading Image:Feels Like Comin' Home.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. Additionally, if you continue uploading bad images, you may be blocked from uploading. STBotI (talk) 13:28, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Your uploads

Good day. I see that you have uploaded a number of images to Wikipedia. First off, thank you for your contributions. Unfortunately, there are some guidelines that we need to follow with copyrighted images. Specifically, you need to add a source for the image (a link to a website will do), a copyright tag (there are some listed at WP:ICT), and a rationale explaining why we can use a copyrighted image (explained at WP:NFURG). I see that your images fail to include one of these. Please stop uploading images and address the concerns listed above. If you need assistance, you can ask at the help desk. If you do not fix these images, and you continue to make bad uploads, you will be blocked and your images will be deleted. Thanks for your contributions! STBotI (talk) 16:16, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

I have been specifying where I have gotten my images in the description of each file.
