License tagging for File:Sam Lay in Chicago.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Sam Lay in Chicago.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:08, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

I have been booking Sam Lay for the Chicago Blues fest for the last couple years. Sam told me he paid for this promo picture of himself on drums and that it was ok to use it. If this is not good enough then please remove the picture but not the entire article. Thanks, Jim Wydra

That may need the same license through WP:OTRS as I mentioned in the section below. The copyright holder may legally insist on 'attribution' but must allow derivatives and commercial uses. Commercial use would be difficult because they would need the subject's permission to sell anything using his image.--Canoe1967 (talk) 23:33, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

It appears that the article

Jenny Eakin Delony is pretty much a cut & paste event. I am trying to sort ot out, please feel free to pump in and help me out. This is a needed article, but it can not be done thins way. Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 22:50, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi this article was written by Linda Hastings Baker (Little Rock, AK)for her MA Thesis. I talked to her on the phone and she knew I was putting her info on Wikipedia. She just wanted me to make sure I gave her credit for the entire thing. Now sure how to do that and neither does Linda.

Just have her read WP:OTRS and submit a 'free license' to use her text on wikipedia. I think the only credit she can recieve will be as the author of a source.--Canoe1967 (talk) 23:26, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Sam Lay in Chicago.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Sam Lay in Chicago.jpg. 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. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:26, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
