Will do. I'm having trouble learning how to use the "edit source" format since I'm not a coder - to add links and cite references. I also noticed that I added a couple of sentences, published, and then went back to read the article and the sentences have disappeared. I'm totally confused but hopefully will learn how this works without too much more trouble. I'm reading the Wiki help guides, which are somewhat helpful.
If I can get back to "Edit" instead of "Edit Source" I think that will help. Karamel patti (talk) 20:53, 3 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Dark Shadows and Beyond - The Jonathan Frid Story Blu-ray Cover - 2021.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:05, 10 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I used the image in the article for Mary O'Leary (producer) within 7 days of this message, but it looks like it has been removed, with no explanation. Can you advise? Karamel patti (talk) 23:07, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Dark Shadows and Beyond - The Jonathan Frid Story

edit
 

Hello, Karamel patti. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Dark Shadows and Beyond - The Jonathan Frid Story".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 19:36, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, I'm relieved that I can request an undeletion (it's a lot of saved work), since I should have some significant items to add within the next few months that may make the page significant enough to be approved. Karamel patti (talk) 18:07, 8 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Jonathan Frid 1968 promotional tour with crowd.jpg. 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.

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{permission pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

Hi there,
I did not provide a copyright licensing tag, I submitted the photo as {{PD-US-1989}} public domain. I don't understand - is that not acceptable? It was accepted when I submitted the photo for use and approval. I'm totally confused about your comment. Please help? 2601:204:4000:1CB0:844C:3AA8:8ED9:5673 (talk) 20:28, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, correction, I submitted it as {{PD-US-no notice}}...same question. It has been published many, many times in various media from newspaper articles to blogs from the 60's forward. 2601:204:4000:1CB0:844C:3AA8:8ED9:5673 (talk) 20:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. The photographer (and his legal successor) has the rights to use the photograph for any purpose for his entire life plus 70 years. Not the one who has the physical copy. In order to use the photograph, you need written permission from the copyright holder. — Ирука13 23:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
If that is the case, what is the {{PD-US-1989}} designation used for if not for this situation? Te photo was published within the dates in the designation, many copies were distributed to the press and used by them, and a copyright was not later registered. This designation seems it applies exactly. I still don't understand. Why does it not apply? Karamel patti (talk) 03:00, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
To use this template, you need to indicate where this photo was published before March 1, 1989. And prove that there was no copyright notice there. — Ирука13 07:31, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
