Adoption request
[edit]Hello there, Jlskiba! I'm Netalarm and I've been around on Wikipedia for quite some time now. It appears that you've indicated that you want to be adopted on your user page. While you can wait for an adopter to come forward and offer to adopt you, I would highly recommend that you also actively seek an adopter. From the cases I've seen, I've noticed that it is often much faster if the adoptee also actively participates in the matching process.
When choosing an adopter (click here for a list), there are a few things you'll want to check. First of all, you'll want to check if they are available. The column with the label "Adoption status" will tell you if they are able to accept more adoptees. You may also want to choose an adopter that has similar interests, which are indicated in the "Interests" column, though it is not required you do so. Once you have found an adopter you want, you may message them on their talk page and ask to be adopted. If you have any questions about this process (or about Wikipedia in general), feel free to message me on my talk page.
Once again, welcome to Wikipedia! Netalarmtalk 04:36, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:AbeLincoln Bust.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 "file" 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 "File" 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. Skier Dude (talk 05:08, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia Images
[edit]Hi there- I just wanted to let you know that I removed the image of George Washington (De Lue) that you added to our List of Public Art at the Indiana Statehouse. The reason is because non-free images can only be used in Wikipedia articles, not lists. Wikipedia considers use in lists to be "excessive use" and a violation of their image-use policy. Let me know if you have any questions- thanks! --Herr0183 (talk) 19:22, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi again- I also changed the non-free content license to a public domain license for your image of Abraham Lincoln (Jones), as the work was created in 1862. Again, let me know if you have any questions! --Herr0183 (talk) 19:57, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
