Image:Kirmen Uribe2.JPG
Hi. When you uploaded Image:Kirmen Uribe2.JPG, you said "I found this on a Basque cultural site, eke.org. There seem to be no restrictions in the use of this photograph." While it may seem as if this would be the case, it actually is not. When someone makes a "creative work" (photograph, painting, sculpture, musical composition, etc), he or she automatically owns all rights to it. Even if there is no copyright statement, the work is copyrighted.

Wikipedia can only use images that the copyright holder has explicitly released under a free license - either into the public domain, under the GFDL, or under an acceptable Creative Commons license. Please see Image use policy for more information. Simply having permission to use the image on Wikipedia is not sufficient - we need for it to be explicitly released under a license that permits anyone to use it for any reason, including commercial reuse.

If you are interested in trying to obtain a release from the copyright holder, please see Requesting copyright permission. Thank you. --BigDT 03:30, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
