Image copyright

The image Image:183649967 64498c5673 o.jpg, which you uploaded, has been listed for speedy deletion because you indicated that only non-commercial or educational use of the file is allowed, or that only Wikipedia has permission to use it. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with this restriction on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more information.

If you created this image (i.e. you shot the photo or drew the image yourself) and want it to be available on Wikipedia, you may re-upload the image, choosing from the Licensing dropdown menu "GFDL (self made)", "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5", or "You created this yourself and release it into the public domain." Be aware that every one of these options allows other people to legally modify or re-use your image for commercial or non-educational purposes without asking further permission. If the image has already been deleted, you may re-upload it, choosing a correct license from the dropdown menu.

If you did not create this image but believe it needs to be used on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. The first way is to re-upload the image, adding to the image's description page a fair use tag from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to the file. Every fair use image which is not used in an article, or does not name its copyright owner, or does not have a rationale for its use will be deleted. The second way is to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you.

File permission problem with File:285097297 b2bb75435a.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:285097297 b2bb75435a.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 GFDL 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 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 in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image 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 uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 20:47, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly unfree File:100469 28 42.jpg

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:100469 28 42.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. --—TheDJ (talk • contribs) 00:07, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The flickr page for this upload by you has the image tagged as "all rights reserved". If you correct this, then the image won't have to be deleted, or it can be undeleted by an admin in case it has since been deleted. Please contact an administrator. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 00:09, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that the upload claims Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License, which is a free license that allows reuse of the image by other people. This license is unsupported by the copyright status of the original image on Flickr which states "All rights reserved". You either need to follow these instructions or amend the license status of the original flickr image. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 08:47, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Manuel orantes 1975.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Manuel orantes 1975.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. [3], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
add the relevant copyright tag.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ww2censor (talk) 16:05, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
