License tagging for Image:Staunton gothic.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Staunton gothic.jpg. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, 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.

A friendly suggestion
Hi,
Regarding the Gothic chess article, note that continual unexplained reversions and addition of inappropriate material are both considered disruptive editing. Please consider this before making any further edits to this article; I suggest using the talk page - that's what it's there for. Oli Filth 21:08, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
- If you continue to perform unexplained reverts on the Gothic chess article, I will have no choice but to report you for violating the three revert rule. Oli Filth 21:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
We need more help
A person with the AceVentura id is causing havoc on the Gothic chess page. He is known to be "Derek Nalls", a person who slanders anyone who does not like his very unsuccessful "Symmetrical Chess Collection" variants, which are extremely esoteric and unpopular.
I would like to request that AceVentura be denied acces to the Gothic chess page because of his disruptive history. Thanks.
