I have nominated Volée Air Flight 180, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Volée Air Flight 180. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Lusitania at New York, 1907.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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. SchuminWeb ( Talk) 00:43, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Lusitania at New York, 1907.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.

A tag has been placed on List of fictional aviation accidents and incidents requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact

However, the year in this image has got to be wrong - here is image of what she looked like in late 1962 when she was launched from drydock.

I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s).

Thanks for uploading Image:MS Kungsholm 4.jpg. I noticed that that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
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, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

A tag has been placed on Princess Kaguya (cruise ship), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{

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

Hello again. I have some questions about some of your image uploads.
You have today uploaded two images of Cap Arcona, a ship in existence from 1927-45. You have stated that more than 70 years has passed since the death of the photographer. It is possible that one or both of these images was taken in the last 70 years; it is likely that the photographer died within the past 70 years. You have stated that the dates and authors are unknown. Given that, where is the basis for the claim that the photographers have been dead 70 or more years?
Yesterday you added an image of the SS Barbarossa under the claim that it is in the public domain as the work of the US Navy. The image is a color painting, perhaps a cigarette card or advertisement, with a foreign language legend. It is unlikely it is a work of the US Navy. What is the source of your assertion that it is in the public domain?
On 5 November you uploaded an image of the MS Kungsholm with the assertion that the copyright holder had released it into the public domain. Proof of that is lacking. Do you claim you are the copyright holder, or do you have proof that the copyright holder released it?
On 30 October you uploaded an image of a postcard of RMS Llandovery Castle with the assertion it is a work of the British government. Is there any proof that the UK government created this postcard?
This talk page indicates a number of other problems with images. While your contributions to ship articles are welcome, images cannot be added unless their copyright status is clear, and use is allowed by law or permission of the copyright holder. Kablammo ( talk) 15:45, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Aquitania, you are helping Wikipedia by adding content to relatively sparse articles on historic vessels. But as shown above, your image uploads are causing a lot of concern as well. You are now starting to ask questions, which is good. But to prevent problems in the future, here are a few comments and suggestions.
Now I do not claim to be an expert on copyright, and you should direct your questions to the appropriate resources on Wikipedia, as you have started to do.

Please upload public domain images - mostly images published in the United States before 1923 or whose photographers died more than 70 years ago - to the Wikimedia Commons so they can be shared by Wikipedias in other languages as well as other Wikipedia projects. Note that most photographs taken by employees of the United States Government while on the job, including most military photographs, are in the public domain.

Hi ! I just saw that you began to translate some text of my french article about the Olympic class ocean liner. I'm the one who wrote it on the french Wikipedia, and I'm very pleased to see that my work is useful. On the french Wiki, I created a project about Titanic ( projet Titanic) wich is working very good since we have created it. We count more than 20 good articles and featuring article. Unfortunately, I don't think to speak english as good to help you directly, but if you need some sources, help or hints, don't hesitate to ask me. Please, if you need it, contact me on my french talk page beacause I don't look very much to the english one. Keep on the good work ! LittleTony87 ( talk) 11:43, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
Hey! I've noticed that quite a few pictures you have posted over the years have been removed. Here is a good way to get around this if the pictures are of ships: Try to find a postcard of the ship in question (Like for example, the SS France (1961) as the Norway.) Make sure that the company who issued the card is/has: 1. Defunct (Italian Line, Home Lines) 2. Sold the ship for other service or scrap (NCL, Louis Cruise Lines) Upload the photo. Add a fair use rationale. In the description for no.1 put: (Company) that issued this postcard no longer exists, therefore has no interest in its reproduction. (website) does not own the image, just a copy of it.
In the description for no.2 put: (Website) is a reproducer of this image, but does not own it. The author just owns a copy of the image. The issuer, (Company), now longer owns or has any interest in this image, and none of its kind have been issued since (year ship was sold/scrapped)
Just a little tip. This has worked for me 6 times. I am planning on using this formula to add a picture to the Raffaello and Michelangelo articles. By the way, its nice to known that another liner buff lives in San Diego :) 1Matt20 ( talk) 23:07, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Continental 1404.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 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).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited SS Traffic (1911), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brest. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot ( talk) 05:59, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Cunard Ambassador.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{
Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Lusitania at New York, 1907.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
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.

A tag has been placed on List of fictional aviation accidents and incidents requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. -

Please do not continue to add non-free images where a free equivalent already exists or can reasonably be created.

I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s).

Hello Aquitania. I have nominated an article you worked on for deletion, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Princess Kaguya (cruise ship). It was deleted before, which you likely were unaware of, as I see you came "on board" Wikipedia relatively recently. You can express your opinion at the link above. My regards, Kablammo ( talk) 00:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
I noticed your work on RMS Alaunia and it is generally good, but you are using a deprecated infobox that is only adding additional work to editors who are converting the old ones to the new one: {{ Infobox Ship Begin}}. I'd appreciate it if you would use this one instead and stop adding additional work to those who are working to convert all the old ones. Thanks, - MBK 004 04:15, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Princess Kaguya (cruise ship), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

Thanks for uploading
Image:Princess Kaguya.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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.

Hello again. I have some questions about some of your image uploads.
You have today uploaded two images of Cap Arcona, a ship in existence from 1927-45. You have stated that more than 70 years has passed since the death of the photographer. It is possible that one or both of these images was taken in the last 70 years; it is likely that the photographer died within the past 70 years. You have stated that the dates and authors are unknown. Given that, where is the basis for the claim that the photographers have been dead 70 or more years?
Yesterday you added an image of the SS Barbarossa under the claim that it is in the public domain as the work of the US Navy. The image is a color painting, perhaps a cigarette card or advertisement, with a foreign language legend. It is unlikely it is a work of the US Navy. What is the source of your assertion that it is in the public domain?
On 5 November you uploaded an image of the MS Kungsholm with the assertion that the copyright holder had released it into the public domain. Proof of that is lacking. Do you claim you are the copyright holder, or do you have proof that the copyright holder released it?
On 30 October you uploaded an image of a postcard of RMS Llandovery Castle with the assertion it is a work of the British government. Is there any proof that the UK government created this postcard?
This talk page indicates a number of other problems with images. While your contributions to ship articles are welcome, images cannot be added unless their copyright status is clear, and use is allowed by law or permission of the copyright holder. Kablammo ( talk) 15:45, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Aquitania, you are helping Wikipedia by adding content to relatively sparse articles on historic vessels. But as shown above, your image uploads are causing a lot of concern as well. You are now starting to ask questions, which is good. But to prevent problems in the future, here are a few comments and suggestions.
Now I do not claim to be an expert on copyright, and you should direct your questions to the appropriate resources on Wikipedia, as you have started to do.

Please upload public domain images - mostly images published in the United States before 1923 or whose photographers died more than 70 years ago - to the Wikimedia Commons so they can be shared by Wikipedias in other languages as well as other Wikipedia projects. Note that most photographs taken by employees of the United States Government while on the job, including most military photographs, are in the public domain.

Hi ! I just saw that you began to translate some text of my french article about the Olympic class ocean liner. I'm the one who wrote it on the french Wikipedia, and I'm very pleased to see that my work is useful. On the french Wiki, I created a project about Titanic ( projet Titanic) wich is working very good since we have created it. We count more than 20 good articles and featuring article. Unfortunately, I don't think to speak english as good to help you directly, but if you need some sources, help or hints, don't hesitate to ask me.

Hey! I've noticed that quite a few pictures you have posted over the years have been removed. Here is a good way to get around this if the pictures are of ships: Try to find a postcard of the ship in question (Like for example, the SS France (1961) as the Norway.) Make sure that the company who issued the card is/has: 1. Defunct (Italian Line, Home Lines) 2. Sold the ship for other service or scrap (NCL, Louis Cruise Lines) Upload the photo. Add a fair use rationale. In the description for no.1 put: (Company) that issued this postcard no longer exists, therefore has no interest in its reproduction. (website) does not own the image, just a copy of it.
In the description for no.2 put: (Website) is a reproducer of this image, but does not own it. The author just owns a copy of the image. The issuer, (Company), now longer owns or has any interest in this image, and none of its kind have been issued since (year ship was sold/scrapped)
Just a little tip. This has worked for me 6 times. I am planning on using this formula to add a picture to the Raffaello and Michelangelo articles. By the way, its nice to known that another liner buff lives in San Diego :) 1Matt20 ( talk) 23:07, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

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, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

The article St. Aphrodite (ship) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{
dated prod}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. The
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Many thanks for your comments on my proposal for a new format for the list. I have explained why I have used photographs instead of the presidential portraits (basically, I think they are clearer), but if consensus develops behind the portraits, I am happy to change this. I am now looking for consensus to replace the list, at the conversation here. Many thanks. BartBassist ( talk) 13:41, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:SS Gugliemo Marconi.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 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 18:49, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Lusitania Mauretania 2.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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Thank you for uploading File:Four ex-German liners.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited SS Traffic (1911), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brest. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot ( talk) 05:59, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Cunard Ambassador.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{
Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq ( talk) 00:48, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
