User talk pages are for communication

Hi Mawcowboybillsbrick7, could you please remove the huge images and other content which you have posted to this user talk page, and which is not part of any communication with other editors? Your user talk page is intended for other editors to communicate with you, not for you to post your own content. Please also note that you can't host copyrighted images at Wikimedia Commons. The images you have uplaoded have a copyright symbol, but everything you upload to Commons has to be free to be "used by anyone, anytime, for any purpose" (quote from here.) Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 16:06, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

NO! This is my DRAFT. All images are mine to release for discussion and are free to be "used by anyone, anytime, for any purpose". I already agreed to that condition when I upload. However, sometime an 'All Rights Reserved' may have sneaked past me but I have replace those images without the 'All Rights Reserved" status. (someone has a nifty robot that helps me locate the strays by sending me an email, Thanks)

You are free to create article drafts in your user space (see Misplaced Pages:User pages#Creating a subpage), but please do not use your talk page to do that. --bonadea contributions talk 09:09, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. I will attempt a clone. Please bear with me.

Yup, this is going to take a while to differentiate between personal vs public interest articles.
Plus the "Top Guns of Imaging" article DRAFT ( from hell, really) which is a giant problem because of my personal witness and alleged victimization conflict of interest. I'm not sure if everything should be erased from all of time.

I could possibly help other wikipedian authors craft a fine Microsoft "Imaging" articles which ( not so mysterious to me) was DELETED from Microsoft flagship product. 'Let me see, why would Bill G rent a battleship for the "Top Guns of Imaging" event' --> (3 yrs later) --> Windows 95

User talk pages are NOT for communication?

Not sure why Herbythyme deleted images used in outline of articles, without a stated reason, seems a bit oppresive

Hi Herbythyme, I now realize what favor you have done for me however I am concerned about some pages like https://commons.wikimedia.org/File:Henry-moore-flathead-v8.002.commons.jpg a very private family story and other copyrighted documents. Also, please save https://commons.wikimedia.org/File:AGATE_IMG_4478.jpg and https://commons.wikimedia.org/File:Windows-document-properties.jpg for my articles. Thank you. regards, maw -- ( could not leave message at your user pages ) Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 02:03, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

They were clear copyright violations (again) and you were notified of that as you have been in the past. You can still post on your Commons talk page. --Herby 14:59, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

All images are fair use AFAIK unless you can point me to a specific violation your (opinion) is wrong.

Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 15:03, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Fair use images cannot be uploaded on Commons - only freely licensed ones - this discussion should be on your Commons talk page not here though. --Herby 09:56, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

My goodness, it appears the herbythyme robot has gone on a deleting spree. What does it have against 'Spirals in Nature?' and 'Stories for children of any age?' I presume (the robot) does not need to provide any proof that it is 'claiming' copyright ( explicitly and obviously ) with denial of my copyright rights? Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 11:43, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

Please withdraw your attacks on Herbythyme, who is of course not a robot. Why do you persist in posting comments about that here and not on Commons, even though several different users have informed you of the fact that files you have uploaded to Commons need to be discussed there? You received notices about each deletion request (each of the image files was nominated for deletion separately, and not by Herbythyme) because they violated Commons policies. It does not require any deeper analysis to understand that an image that contains a copyright claim is in fact copyrighted, which (as you already know) means that it must not be uploaded to Commons. If you claim copyright, you can't put the file on Commons. In addition, everything that is uploaded to Commons should be within the project scope – your personal screenshots for instance have no wider educational value, and so should not be hosted there. All that is described on your Commons user talk page. Again, stop using your Misplaced Pages user talk page to post random comments, and in particular, stop posting attacks on users, here or on other Wikimedia projects. Thank you. --bonadea contributions talk 11:53, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

My apologies. OK let go of revision control in my mind. NO COPYRIGHT. Please help or ask real talk thyme to remove images which contain copyright(s) from here ( https://commons.wikimedia.org/Special:ListFiles?limit=50&user=Mawcowboybillsbrick7&ilshowall=1 ) and I will wait until I am allowed to upload only images without my copyright where I feel I do not need to credit authors of the background images for review somewhere so that I may reference them in article. regards, Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 22:39, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

You may see some of my confusion. Most but not all copyrighted are marked for removal. A ROBOT was my erroneous postulate because, for example, AGATE_IMG_4478 image is marked for removal with a stated reason that author and source are not identified, HOWEVER, just below the removal warning is a template which identifies the author and source as me. -- Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 07:59, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

bonadea has stated, several times, I may simply use Commons to fix the errors however I have been locked out of all ability to comment on domain commons.wikipedia.org and have have had to ask TeaHouse editors for help. -- Mawcowboybillsbrick7 (talk) 08:08, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

I never said that you can use Commons to "fix the errors", but normally a user who is blocked on a Wikimedia project is able to use their user talk page on that project, and the questions you have asked here should be asked there instead. Sometimes a blocked user may be also blocked from their user talk page, which is why you were asked about that in one of your Teahouse question threads, but since the Commons administrator who blocked you said this discussion should be on your Commons talk page not here though (above, in this section) I assumed that your Commons talk page would be available to you. If it is not, you'll simply need to wait until your block there expires in a few days' time, and post to your Commons talk page then.

Sue Dawe gave me permission to re-publish with my children's story. I am not sure what the difference between fair-use and free to share. Can anyone else provide me with input? The story is public on my facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/MarkAWashburn

The other two children's story background image credits are AFAIK not required HOWEVER the horses photo is from Dewey Vanderhoff without any visible image copyright and, well, the rare https://en.wikipedia.org/Irrawaddy_dolphin .

Agate

Agate Introduction

Agate and jasper are types of "chalcedony."
Agate is translucent to semitransparent,
whereas Jasper is opaque. The primary
difference between jasper and agate is
the amount of impurities and foreign
material contained in a specimen of
cryptocrystalline quartz ( assemblage
of 'rapid' coalescence (cooling) of
4500°F (2500°C) SiO2 plasma )

Keyfile CORBA (1991) vs Microsoft DCOM (1995)

The Keyfile Document Management Desktop
I wrote Keyfile CORBA desktop automation software which integrated with Microsoft compatible software before DCOM existed ( using OLE API with VB2, VB3, Turbo Pascal and Turbo C for office automation application development ). Keyfile's document management desktop capabilities were monopolized by Microsoft within Windows 95.
