Orphaned non-free media (File:Equitable_Tourism_Options_(EQUATIONS)_Organization_Logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Equitable_Tourism_Options_(EQUATIONS)_Organization_Logo.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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 06:09, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Melesse for raising this concern. But, I am currently using this image in an article that I have initiated in my userspace. It is called User:I Eqs/Equitable Tourism Options (EQUATIONS). Since, I am continuing to improve the article to meet all the required standards of a Wikipedia article, it will not be shifted to mainspace within the next seven days. I do hope this is okay and sufficient enough reason for the deletion warning to be removed from the page File:Equitable_Tourism_Options_(EQUATIONS)_Organization_Logo.jpg. Additionally, within the page of this Image it has been auto-mentioned that it is linked to the page User:I Eqs/Equitable Tourism Options (EQUATIONS).

If an Image cannot be used in an userspace draft article, please advise what are the steps that I should take. But, since this is my first article I would prefer to complete it in the userspace with the required images before I shift it to mainspace.

With regard to licensing of the image, I followed the guidelines provided for uploading a non-free Logo of an Organization. There are also no free replacements for this particular image.

I have currently not uploaded any other images. But, I do plan to upload a few more in future and use it within this same article. Hence, your advise on usage of images in userspace draft articles is important.

Thanks and Regards, I Eqs (talk) 07:23, 18 January 2011 (UTC).

re: Title of Equitable Tourism Options

I am going to copy your comment onto the article's Talk page and reply there. You raise some good points but we should discuss them in a group, not fragmented on individual userpages. I'm going to take some minor liberties with the wording to reestablish the context. Please correct the wording if I misstate your position. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 13:43, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the speedy reply. I checked your post on the discussion page of the article. Thank you for taking it forward. I will discuss/elaborate my concern with the title of the article there. The rewording of my position on this article is fine. I am sorry about posting my concern on individual userpages, I was unclear on the guidelines on how to take this issue forward. Thanks and Regards, I Eqs (talk) 05:30, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

No apology necessary. A userpage comment is a good way to start the discussion, especially when asking for general advice. I simply prefer to continue the discussion in a forum where other interested editors are most likely to join the conversation. This is not an area of expertise for me so multiple eyes on the problem are good. Happy editing. Rossami (talk) 22:18, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
