FUCK OFF - LaughingmanBot
Revision as of 04:13, 21 August 2007
If you are here to register a complaint regarding this bot's edits, before doing so please note:
For quite some time, we have attempted to encourage people to provide rationales. The results of this effort have been dismal at best.
The creator of this bot has come under fire for performing this work manually. One of the main complaints is that the effort to tag images could just as readily be spent providing rationales. This is not the case; the uploader and/or user of each fair use image is the person who should provide the rationale. A non-involved editor can not know under what principles the user of an image intended such use as fair use.
The use of fair use, copyrighted images on the Wikimedia servers is covered by United States law. Our policies with respect to this bot's actions are based on that law. Please see Fair_use#Purpose_and_character.
Bug reports are very welcome; tagging images as this bot is doing per policy is not a bug.
Favorite statements about ORFU images:
Thank you for the message, Mr. Bot, but you have to understand that this image was used in an article, but the article got deleted. PK 18:19, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
