User talk:SD6-Agent

This user may have left Wikipedia. SD6-Agent has not edited Wikipedia for a considerable amount of time. As a result, any requests made here may not receive a response. If you are seeking assistance, you may need to approach someone else.

I often blank this page. You can assume I've read any messages left here. I may or may not reply on your talk page, or on the relevant article talk page, as the situation warrants.

Congratulations! You are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those. Good luck. Angela. 07:05, May 5, 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the privlege and to those who voted for me SD6-Agent 13:14, 5 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Given that I've explained more than once that the problem has to do with commercial vs. non-commercial use, how is it that you still view the issue as being a dispute between Canadian and American law? Bearcat 06:32, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I may not comprehend the issue entirely but I would have thought that by now someone would offer a solution as to solving this issue.SD6-Agent 06:34, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's 3 a.m., and chances are that there aren't too many other canuckawikipedians awake just at the moment. Give it a day or two. It's unfortunately a very tricky issue; it's distinctly possible that we won't be able to solve it without consulting a lawyer.

You don't need to understand every last nook and cranny of GFDL, but please understand the basic point that because of the way Wikipedia content is licensed, Wikipedia is a commercial use. As a result, using material licensed only for non-commercial use is problematic. Please just don't upload anything else that's licensed for non-commercial use, until we can get a clear answer regarding the legalities involved. Bearcat 06:50, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. We need a lawyer, or someone who knows laws well enough, to offer a solution. If this isn't a Canada vs. US laws issue then I have to wonder how a lawyer could help us.SD6-Agent 07:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A lawyer could tell us whether or not a commercial source can use "non-commercial use only" logos under the "fair use" provision. (And by the way, if we can, the appropriate tag to use in that case would be {{logo}}. But under the circumstances, I'd still recommend we don't just start using that until we can clarify the matter, because even the logo template cites "fair use". Everything with that tag on it currently is a corporate logo that isn't under an NCU-only license.)

It's unfortunate, but the reality is that there's a distinct possibility that we will have to delete the images. The way you've talked about the matter so far, I'm just worried that you'll take it a bit too personally if that's what happens. Bearcat 07:53, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. I do understand this is not a Canada-US issue but when the result of this is that information provided by the Canadian government can't be used here because of a law it contradicts then I feel slighted.As a Canadian, I feel that a slap in the face of Canadian law (Crown Copyright) is a slap in my face too. SD6-Agent 08:10, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a slap in the face to Canadian law. It's just a conflict between two equally legitimate forms of content licensing. You don't even have to compare Canadian law to American law to run into this problem; it's a conflict that exists just as vividly within Canadian law. If Wikipedia were governed solely by Canadian law, we would still have this problem.

In the meantime, I've reviewed the items with this tag on it. "Official portrait" photos of political figures by themselves, intended mainly to illustrate their biographical pages, are unquestionably fair use. Retag those as {{promophoto}}, but do cite the source in the text box under the tag. But only do those for now; don't retag anything else (including group shots) until we can get further clarification. Bearcat 08:32, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. Do you know of any legal expert you could contact to clarify this issue? SD6-Agent 09:05, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh. You said you understood it this morning, and yet you're still back onto the notion that there's a national law conflict here. I'll explain this point-form:

1. Wikipedia is a commercial use.
2. The terms of CanadaCopyright specify "non-commercial use only".
3. A commercial use cannot use "non-commercial" content, because a commercial use is not a non-commercial use.
4. If Wikipedia were based in Canada and governed exclusively by Canadian copyright law, there would still be a conflict between commercial and non-commercial use, and we would therefore still be facing the same problem.
5. If the images were American, there would still be a conflict between commercial and non-commercial use, and we would therefore still be facing the same problem.
6. Since the same conflict still exists no matter which country's copyright law is applied, the conflict is not between Canadian and American copyright law; it is between "commercial" and "non-commercial" use.

Could you please let me know which point you're still having trouble with? Bearcat 22:28, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'll make this as straightforward as I can: Where can I find similar information, that I could get from http://www.parl.gc.ca, that is applicable under commercial use? SD6-Agent 23:13, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know; unfortunately, that's what we're going to have to research in the coming days. SimonP already posted a link to the National Archives' database of Canadian-related public domain images. Unfortunately, however, some types of photos probably don't have any viable GFDL-suitable equivalents, but "fair use" doesn't always mean we can just use the non-commercial version anyway; in some cases, we're just going to have to accept that there just won't be any available image that we can legally use. Bearcat 23:27, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

We need to find someone who is familiar with Canadian law. I think that may be our only answer.SD6-Agent 23:34, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that you have listed yourself as an atheist Wikipedian. You will probably be interested to know that Brian0918 has nominated Omnipotence paradox as the front page article for December 25th.

Thanks for uploading Image:Charlesdalfen.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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.

Thanks for uploading Image:T'pring.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Rossrs 15:37, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Stonetemplepilots.jpeg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use.

A tag has been placed on Stephane Provost, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Esrever 08:52, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:JosephMcGuire.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Thanks for uploading Image:Liana white.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 07:34, 22 December 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Remember the dot ^(talk) 07:34, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:LOTRROTKmovie.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 (talk) 17:39, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:LOTRFOTRmovie.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Quentin X (talk) 19:01, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated Editor in chief, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Editor in chief and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:59, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

edit  WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear SD6-Agent! You are receiving as you are a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey There's been many more new things going on at WP:HOCKEY; this newsletter will be sent every two weeks/months. If you wish to not receive the newsletter, please remove your name from the newsletter mailing list. Thanks! edit  New recognized content By The Pancake of Heaven! There has been numerous new recognized content, so much that it's too time-consuming to sift through the "trophy cases" on WP:HOCKEY. Some interesting achievements: 2016 NHL Draft has been newly created and has immediately become a GA status article. The Vancouver Canucks task force has become active again, thanks to Canuckian89! J.D. Watt has been declined at WP:AFD. Drafts related to the OHL have been published! edit  Task forces By The Pancake of Heaven! We are working to create a new task force within the WikiProject to deal with topics related to the Pittsburgh Penguins. It hasn't been created yet; but it aims to expand articles based on former and current Pittsburgh Penguins players and articles. Good luck! edit  New Administrators Currently 0 promoted admins! Be the first one at WP:RFA. edit  Featured Topic Drive By Maxim The original featured topic drive, initiated by Scorpion0422, has concluded succesfully. National Hockey League awards is now a featured topic, with 24 articles in total. Of them, 20 are featured lists, one is a featured article, and the other three are trophy articles that were too short to become featured lists. Eight users signed up to help out, shown here. The next Featured Topic hasn't been decided upon, and the ideas and organization for it fell apart. If you have any ideas, don't hesitate to share them at WT:HOCKEY. edit  Notes More editors are needed to help out with the newsletter. The newsletter creator doesn't have an infinite nor perfect supply of ideas, and thus he might omit some interesting news. Portal:Ice hockey is being considered for featured status. Should Chris Pronger have been suspended for more than eight games for stomping on Ryan Kesler? Vote here! Help Patrik Stefan -- one of the greatest NHL draft busts -- become a GA status article.

A tag has been placed on Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. WilliamMThompson (talk) 07:46, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Great Seal of Ontario requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
