Do you have explicit permission from http://www.vissarion.ru/eng/gorod_e_w.html to copy their material? In order to copy material verbatim, the site must give permission under some free license such as the GFDL or they must release all copyright restrictions. Please see Copyright info for details. I will mark the page as a copyright violation in a few minutes if you do not respond. --└Smith120bh/TALK┐ 02:10, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Please also put license information on Image:Angel1.jpg as I see you did do for Image:Plan.gif. And on the article, if they did release copyright restrictions, say so on the discussion page and cite the source on the main article page. --└Smith120bh/TALK┐ 02:17, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

I'm the webmaster of www.vissarion-en.org. What else permission do I need to use its materials?

It's just that this is my first time to try to publish something in wikipedia and I don't know these license laws.

I would really appreciate if you could help me with that.

 * That's what I suspected, but there was no way to tell, and a lot of people do copy verbatim illegally. So, here's what to do:

(See WP:CV for more and official details) --└Smith120bh/TALK┐ 02:57, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Go here to the article's talk/discussion page and put a note in there saying that you are the webmaster, and you give permission for its usage.
 * And then either:
 * Put a note on your website saying that pages may be copied under the GFDL or some similar license (which basically states that it can be copied by anyone as long as they attribute you as the original source and generally respect it)
 * OR: send an e-mail from some e-mail address associated with your website to permissions (at) wikipedia (dot) org stating that you give Wikipedia permission to use it.


 * Okay, after hunting around Wikipedia policy pages for a while, I see nothing saying that I, as the original person to put up the copyvio notice, cannot revert my own copyvio warning. And I see a bunch saying that the copyvio listing is backed up and needs all the help it can get. So I'm reverting it to your pre-copyvio version myself. Normally, administrators are the ones to take care of everything after a copyvio warning is put up, so I'm not totally sure if my reversion was allowed, but oh well. There you go. --└Smith120bh/TALK┐ 04:15, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm... It looks like User:Splash deleted it, with this explanation: "release on talk page prohibits modification and commercial use, on CP >7 days". This is getting into legal and policy stuff that I don't know enough about, so I'd suggest contacting that administrator specificially on User_talk:Splash. Sorry I can't be of more help here! --└Smith120bh/TALK┐ 03:16, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Stone_h.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Stone_h.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 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 , 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 .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See 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 on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calliopejen1 (talk) 19:31, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Boggy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Boggy~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 22:42, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 11:10, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
