Subject: Image Request for Wikipedia

To whom it may concern:

I found your page http://www.elycathedral.org/media_centre/gallery/index.html?group=19 while doing research for the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia, and thought your image regarding Ely Cathedral might be appropriate for inclusion in the article concerning King's School, Ely.

I am specifically seeking your permission to use this image: http://www.elycathedral.org/media_centre/gallery/enlarge.html?group=19;file=Ely%20Cathedral%20Aerial%20Shot.jpg

and I would like to include your image in this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_School%2C_Ely

Normally we ask permission for material to be used under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). This means that although you retain the copyright and authorship of your own work, you are granting permission for all others (not just Wikipedia) to use, copy, and share your materials freely -- and even potentially use them commercially -- so long as they do not try to claim the copyright themselves, nor prevent others from using or copying them freely.

You can read the license of the GFDL in full at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GFDL

This license expressly protects creators from being considered responsible for modifications made by others, while ensuring that creators are credited for their work. There is more information on our copyright policy at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights

We choose the GFDL because we consider it the best available tool for ensuring our encyclopedia can remain free for all to use, while providing credit to everyone who donates text and images. This may or may not be compatible with your goals in creating the materials available on your website. Please be assured that if permission is not granted, your materials will not be used at Wikipedia -- we have a very strict policy against copyright violations.

We also accept licensing of images under other free-content licenses like some Creative Commons licenses (http://creativecommons.org). "Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 UK: England & Wales" is such an example: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/uk/

With your permission, we will credit you for your work in the image's permanent description page, noting that it is your work and is used with your permission, and we will provide a link back to your website.

If you would like to grant permission for use of your image, please respond with the following declaration of consent. The WORK, LICENSE, DATE, and NAME OF THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER must be filled out.

I hereby assert that I am the creator and/or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of WORK [ insert link ].

I agree to publish that work under the free license LICENSE [choose at least one from http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Copyright_tags].

I acknowledge that I grant anyone the right to use the work in a commercial product and to modify it according to their needs, provided that they abide by the terms of the license and any other applicable laws.

I am aware that I always retain copyright of my work, and retain the right to be attributed in accordance with the license chosen. Modifications others make to the work will not be attributed to me.

I acknowledge that I cannot withdraw this agreement, and that the content may or may not be kept permanently on a Wikimedia project.
