re:ok
I am aware of the source and nature of the image you added (since I am assuming the anonymous IP address that added it was yourself). The image was removed for several reasons: one, it was a hotlinked image from another site - external images are not permitted because they steals bandwidth from that source, and cannot be manipulated to fit easily onto an article page; two, the image was from a source without copyright information (not to mention stripped of said information from the original, which is found here, with a mention of the photographer's wish not to release the images generally) - Memory Alpha has strict rules on image copyrights, because of our focus on a commercial property. Please read the Memory Alpha:image use policy and Memory Alpha:copyright policy for further information for the future. And finally, we already had an image detailing the design of the Titan on that page, which is more than sufficient - extensive information on licensed material is the purview of Memory Beta. -- Michael Warren | Talk 13:20, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
