editThe problem is that because Wikipedia is a free content encyclopedia, permission to use something on Wikipedia only isn't good enough. If Wikipedia is going to use the image, the artist must agree to license the painting under a free license that permits commercial re-use and derivatives, such as the GFDL or a Creative Commons License like CC-BY or CC-BY-SA. If he does agree to license freely, please ask him to send an e-mail to permissions@wikimedia.org saying so. But if he says he only wants it used on Wikipedia, but commercial re-use and derivatives are not allowed, then Wikipedia can't use it. Angr 17:01, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
- Any copyrighted images are being used under a claim of "fair use". See Wikipedia:Fair use for a discussion of the circumstances under which such a claim is allowed here. Note in particular that claiming a "fair use" defense means you don't need the creator's permission. Angr 18:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
