File permission problem with File:Rener Gracie portrait.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Rener Gracie portrait.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.
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 in section F11 of the 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. Whpq (talk) 20:12, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
Conflict of interest
[edit]Hello @Billodom2. Are you by any chance affiliated with the Gracie family, whether personally or professionally? I found something that leads me to believe you might be connected to Rorion Gracie, so I was curious whether this was a coincidence or not. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:14, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, I've known him professionally for many years. 2600:8805:1A10:3200:2979:9DD8:818E:BA2C (talk) 21:17, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- The specific relationship is that I'm a jiu-jitsu practitioner and he introduced me to the martial art. Subsequently, I became licensed to teach their programs. I'm also professional editor, and historian (PhD History, Ohio State University) well-versed in thoroughly researching, documenting sources, objectively assessing, and finally presenting written conclusions. So, I'm capable of creating and contributing to the Rorion Gracie page without bias. In fact, I'm so attuned to it that I would err in the other direction to avoid an accusation of bias or favoritism. I have no financial relationship to Rorion, so there is no conflict of interest. 2600:8805:1A10:3200:2979:9DD8:818E:BA2C (talk) 21:25, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- I also posted my reply in the deletion discussion for Rener Gracie so that we have it all in one place. 2600:8805:1A10:3200:2979:9DD8:818E:BA2C (talk) 22:18, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
