File permission problem with File:Close Counters Performing at Faux Mo 2016.jpeg

Thanks for uploading File:Close Counters Performing at Faux Mo 2016.jpeg, which you've attributed to https://www.dropbox.com/s/39peqntap0k1m29/IMG_6587.JPG?dl=0. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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-en@wikimedia.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-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} 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 Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:56, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Close Counters

Thanks for taking it in good spirits — some people actually get really angry and start copping attitude if their drafts aren't accepted right away, so it's actually a really nice treat when somebody takes the feedback constructively instead.

When it comes to Back Back Forward Punch, though, the thing is that article wasn't submitted through the AFC process — it was created directly in articlespace by a user who had already graduated to the ability to directly create new articles without having to go through AFC first. And we know that sometimes bad articles get through on here, because the people who take our rules and policies and inclusion standards seriously haven't seen them yet — but we actually have a principle about that called WP:WAX or WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: bringing up how bad Article B is doesn't necessarily help Article A to survive, but instead is highly liable to get Article B nominated for deletion too.

If you can find the right Triple J links, though, that would probably help Close Counters quite a bit — and just for a bit more guidance, the other kinds of sourcing that we do accept would include newspapers and established music magazines. Even album reviews can help, if they're in that kind of media. Hope that helps a bit, and please do feel free to ask me if you have any further questions. Bearcat (talk) 08:51, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
