License tagging for Image:Power.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Power.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Re: Boston Mariners

I deleted the page per policy, not because I wanted to "censor content," as you put it. The {{ prod}} template was added to the article on April 7, 2007. Per the proposed deletion policy, after five days, the article may be deleted because the deletion was not contested within five days.

I will agree, there are a bunch of pages on Wikipedia that probably don't deserve to be here, but it takes time and effort to locate these pages and go through the appropriate processes to delete said pages. And even after deletion, when it has been determined that the content is not appropriate for Wikipedia, be it because it isn't notable or verifiable, usually a considerable time or effort has been put into the article.

I will agree that "considerable time" has been put into this article, but that isn't a reason why it cannot be deleted. If you disagree with my reasoning, you are able to take your concern to Wikipedia:Deletion review, where my deletion may be overturned if the community agrees with your judgment. Good luck, If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka 13:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC) reply
