Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Plexus solaris.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

Selman Trtovac

edit

I'd like to ask, what you expecting from me exactly. How can I improve this article? Help me somehow. I'm sure that this article has no problem with notability. I'm very sorry to see there is some problem.--Alexandra Nastic (talk) 11:36, 13 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

It lacks the answer to a simple question: why is this person notable? Why is he famous? Also, that the article is orphaned is I think a more immediate concern, you ought to take care of that.
Another thing. You've upload the following images: Image:Syncronisation 01.JPG, Image:Ruka ubice 01.jpg, Image:Spirala straha 02.JPG, Image:Plexus solaris.jpg. In all cases, they are uploaded under the claim that you are the author. I'm wondering: is this true? All but Image:Plexus solaris.jpg are sculptures, so I suppose it is possible that you've taken the pictures (but have you really?). However, I'm under the impression that Plexus Solaris is a piece of photographic artwork by Selman Trtovac... and thus, not you. If this is the case, you have most definitely breached copyright law and Wikipedia's rules. This is not OK and we (Wikipedia) could get in trouble for it. Please clarify the situation.

Thank you for your critics and sugestions. I know personaly artist Selman Trtovac. He gave me a permision to write the article and to use his photos and I take the responsability. I already wrote a few articles about artists in the ArtFama magazine in Serbia and I want to begin with articles about important young artists from Serbia in Wikipedia. This kind of information should be published (my opinion). There is lot of information from his biography. I used only selection. His work is importent in two art scenes German and Serbian. This conection should be known. I'm going to work it out! --Alexandra Nastic (talk) 16:14, 13 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
This is probably not good enough. To begin with, you have not only "used" his photos, you have released them under the terms of the GFDL. Also, you've said they were self-made - which they weren't. As thus, you've lied, which is bad.
Further, have you read Wikipedia:Notability (people)? I am not able to see how Trtovac lives up to the basic criteria in there. It is important that he does, else the article may be deleted (see: Wikipedia:Deletion process).
Third: that you are writing an article about a personal friend might put you in a Wikipedia:Conflict of Interest-situation. Jobjörn (talk)
Dear Mr. Jobjorn I'm really not interested in any kind of disagreement. I didn’t say he is friend of mine, I told that I know him as well I know lot of artists and I want to, as I told, write another articles about artist. It would be pity do delete my articles instead to improve wiki basis. If you are that responsible you could help me. Than You.--Alexandra Nastic (talk) 08:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
I can't - and won't - help people who falsify copyright licenses write articles about people that are clearly non-notable. I would suggest that you come up with proof of this artist's notability, that is, proof that he has received significant coverage in at least three reliable secondary sources that are independent of himself. If you can do that, I can help you further. Jobjörn (talk) 11:17, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
I thought that the bibliography gives the reference about work of somebody. Selection of bibliography I wrote: first in the list is monographic book published by Museum in Smederevo, fourth is book from International Biennale in Vrsac, fifth is book of the selection of 12 European artist in museum in Fabriano, sixth is Saldo Exhibition’s book from one of the most important museums in Germany and seventh is also book from the Museum of modern art in Belgrade. All this references are independent. All information can be disproved.--Alexandra Nastic (talk) 12:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
