File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Melissa Head Shot Credit.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Melissa Head Shot Credit.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.
If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 03:25, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
"Only non-commercial or educational use" images are not permitted
[edit]Hi, R Jeffrey Priddy. The image you recently uploaded, File:Seated 01 crop web.jpg, was deleted from Wikipedia because you indicated on the file upload form that only non-commercial or educational use of the file is allowed. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, 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 Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License and 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.
Unfortunately, we also have strict rules involving images, claimed as fair use, of living people: Fair use pictures of people still alive are not allowed if taking a new free picture as a replacement (which is almost always considered possible) would serve the same encyclopedic purpose as the non-free image. This includes non-free promotional images. Also see our non-free content guidelines for more information.
Since you did not create this image, but want it to be used on Wikipedia, you may want 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. Zzyzx11 (talk) 02:29, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
