Your upload was unfortunately somewhat crude and awkward, resulting in a potential violation of COM:OVERWRITE. You cut off the top and right of the upper cloud shape, the top of the gray circle, thereby making the graphic more confusing and harder to understand. Also, the text you cropped off in the image was not transcribed onto the image's description page. And increasing the filesize by over 2000% from 34k to 721k was a severe technical flaw. Please upload any substantially revised image as a separate file under a new name. Thank you... AnonMoos (talk) 17:05, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello McGeddon, you just nominated an image for deletion because a person claimed copyright for it. I suppose this is a misunderstanding: Any image with a free licence is copyrighted and needs to be so. The author's claim to copyright of the image is the reason why he is a position at all to allow others to use the image freely or whatever. It is rather the other way round (and what we see rather often), i. e. that images are "licenced" by persons who do not have copyright to them. This is fraud, the licence is invalid and such images need to be removed here (well, unless the image is in the public domain and the uploader fraudulently claims to hold the copyright when there is none, as you have with stock agencies more often than not). Cheers, --Wikipeder (talk) 11:32, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Nomination for Deletion

[edit]

This is with reference to the request for deletion of images (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Files_uploaded_by_Immdigital) that you have raised. Please be noted that "immdigital" is the owner/custodian of these images which are residing on our official website www.harpalgeo.tv.

This is to inform you that IMMDigital is a Jang and Geo Group based company that owns all its digital properties. The images for which you have raised the deletion request are owned by us.

Hence, kindly renounce your request as soon as possible.

Self-adding of QI-Label

[edit]

You added the QI-Label to an image that was edited by yourself and uploaded it as an extract: [1]. Please refrain to do so. Only images which successfully underwent the QIC review process are eligible to carry the QI-Label. Any extract is a new image. Thanks, --CEphoto, Uwe Aranas (talk) 18:51, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Cccefalon: Thanks for the catch. Looks like CropTool automatically copies that across when creating a new image from a cropped QI image, I'll watch out for it in future. --McGeddon (talk) 08:34, 6 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Torben Sondergaard - healing photo

[edit]

The description of the picture about healing is inaccurate. I saw the video. It was an older lady who touched the girl for healing and Torben was holding the girl's hands to pray for the Holy Spirit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Khwal (talk • contribs) 13:57, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your VFC installation method is deprecated

[edit]

Hello McGeddon, we are aware that using the old installation method of VFC (via common.js, which you are using) may not work reliably anymore and can break other scripts as well. A detailed explanation can be found here. Important: To prevent problems please remove the old VFC installation code from your common.js and instead enable the VFC gadget in your preferences.

Thanks for uploading File:Misinformation effect.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag.

(See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.
