File source problem with File:Simon-esta-festival-poland.png

Thank you for uploading File:Simon-esta-festival-poland.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 07:25, 2 May 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey (talk) 07:25, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Alien-deadly-returns.png

Thanks for uploading File:Alien-deadly-returns.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. –Drilnoth (T • C • L) 23:26, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Simon-Britton-Sir-Paul-McCartney-LIPA-Liverpool.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Simon-Britton-Sir-Paul-McCartney-LIPA-Liverpool.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Image permissions

Calence, at File talk:Simon-Britton-Sir-Paul-McCartney-LIPA-Liverpool.jpg, you said that you could use http://www.flickr.com/photos/67234366@N04/6612661957 because the uploader had given you permission to upload under the licenses that you provided. If the uploader is willing as you've said, you should email her and ask her to change the license on the image description page; it's quite easy to do. Please tell her that she could either pick one of the Creative Commons licenses that allows modifications and commercial use ("CC-by" or "CC-by-sa"), or she could write a comment on the image saying that it's released under one of these licenses. Nyttend (talk) 00:10, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

You said that you emailed the permission to Wikipedia; where did you send it? It needs to go to permissions-enwikimedia.org; if you sent it anywhere else, you need to re-send it. IMPORTANT — When you do this, you need to place the OTRS pending template (see below for how to do this) on the image description; if you don't do this, we won't know that an email is coming, so we'll assume that the image has been copied without permission. You could also ask the copyright holder to change the license, as I noted above; if she does this, we'll all be able to see it easily from that page. Any more questions? Feel free to ask me, and I'll do my best to help.

To add the OTRS pending template, go to the image description page and type the following text at the bottom:

{{OTRS pending}}

This will display a big box that tells people that a permission email is forthcoming. Would you like me to restore the image so you can do this? Please reply at my talk page, like you just did a few minutes ago. Nyttend (talk) 00:31, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Did you just now leave a message on my talk page starting "Thank you for being"? If so, you did it while logged out, so your IP address is visible for everyone to see. That's private information; it can be redacted if you'd like, or it can just be left there for the world to see. Please tell me if you'd like me to redact it; I'll just leave it there if you prefer that or if you don't reply. I'm going to restore the images momentarily. Nyttend (talk) 02:02, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

By the way, I've re-deleted File:Simonpaullipaliverpool.jpg for a totally different reason. One of our criteria for speedy deletion allows an image to be deleted if it's identical to another image or to a reduced version of another image. This is because we can always force an image to display at a smaller resolution, without having a separately uploaded image at that smaller resolution. Since File:Simonpaullipaliverpool.jpg was simply a reduced version of File:Simon-Britton-Sir-Paul-McCartney-LIPA-Liverpool.jpg, I've deleted it, but the other image remains available for use. Nyttend (talk) 02:10, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Never mind my question about whether you were the person who left the message at my talk page. Re-reading the privacy and redaction policy, I'm just about to redact it. This will NOT hide your message — it will simply hide your IP address. Nyttend (talk) 02:15, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

OH yes that was me. I was at a cafe anyway so no worries. I didn't know it logged me out! Wow ok thanks. I'll edit the article to show the previous filename, and then add the code to show the OTRS pending =) THANK YOU!!!

Sounds good. I redacted it, but any administrator can undo that kind of redaction, so I requested that it be oversighted — now, only a few dozen people can see it, so it definitely won't be public again. Just please be careful that you're logged in when you edit :-) By the way, the larger the image is, the better. People can view different resolutions of images (in your preferences, you can change the default display size, for example), so it's best not to upload smaller resolution versions of images for which you have larger ones. Nyttend (talk) 04:46, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks I appreciate that!! I added that tag to the other images as well. Thanks about the image info - I still did not mean to upload the raw image file. =) Thanks for all of your help, now I feel like I know what's going on and how to solve the licensing issues!

I have no idea why it keeps logging me out, it says I am logged in and I have not shut my browser or disconnected from the internet. I'm not concerned about my IP though, so whatever I posted that was logged as anonymous if it happens again I'm not worried about it.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to help you: I understand licensing-related matters a lot better than I understand the things you're now asking about. However, there's a help desk for editing questions, such as what you wrote on my talk page; I've copied your message there, and people are likely to reply to you there. Of course, I can't 100% guarantee that you'll find what you need, but I'd be quite surprised if you aren't given all the help you need — I've just about always gotten the help I needed when I've gone there in the past. You can find the question (and answers, once they're given) in the section entitled "Musician infobox (?) help" at Wikipedia:Help desk. If you go there, you'll see that I wasn't quite sure what you were asking; people that read your question will have an easier time helping you if you go there and add a comment explaining more fully what the problem is.
