File:The-Quiet-Time.gif
Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:The-Quiet-Time.gif has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because images on Wikipedia need to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License or another free license, which allow anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-3.0 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file, please understand that the vast majority of images found on the internet are not appropriate for Wikipedia. Most content on the internet is copyrighted and the creator of the image has exclusive rights to use it. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others - do not upload images that violate others' copyrights. In certain limited cases, we may be able to use an image under a claim of fair use - if you are certain that fair use would apply here, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list. If no fair use rationale applies, 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 Media copyright questions. Thank you. Fastily (talk) 03:07, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Images
Hi. The issue here is proof - that is, the proof that you were part of this entity that dissolved, and also that Mr. Blei gave you permission to release the images of his book covers as GFDL (and that he understands what such a thing would mean). I have a friend who is also a Wikipedian who can probably shed some light on what the legal situation is as to whether you can release the cover yourself under the Creative Commons license, or whether you would need something else as a prerequisite. For the former image, the best way to prove that Mr. Blei has indeed given you permission to license his book covers under the license you have specified while uploading would be for Mr. Blei to drop OTRS an email at [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org], both asserting that you have been given permission to release the images under a free license, (he should link all of the images he has given you permission to license somewhere in the email) and that he understands what a thing means. Here's a copy of an email I sent to OTRS a while back without the specific file information, and with some added information about you specifically - he can use this as a template, if he likes.

To permissions-en@wikimedia.org,

I hereby assert that I am the creator and/or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of [list files here].

I agree to publish the works outlined under the Creative Commons Attribution license, versions 3.0 and later.

I acknowledge that I grant anyone the right to use the work in a commercial product, and to modify it according to their needs, as long as 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 am aware that the free license only concerns copyright, and I reserve the option to take action against anyone who uses this work in a libellous way, or in violation of personality rights, trademark restrictions, etc.

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

Yours sincerely,

You should get an email back from a few hours to a few days later, or at the very least notice that another template has been added to the image pages listed. This particular template specifies a ticket number, which OTRS volunteers can verify the assertion of copyright and evidence of permission with. This should sort out the situation.

As for why your other images were not tagged, that is simply because I often do a job (which is often just myself and automated processes) called new image patrol, whereby I monitor the images being uploaded to Wikipedia and check that everything is okay with the licenses. We get a lot of people uploading album covers and book covers under free licenses without them actually having permission to release the images under the licenses they specify, so we have to take precautions. The fact that the other images were not tagged does not mean that they would not also have been up at PUI if I had seen them whilst on patrol, but since you are clearly taking steps to rectify this situation, I see no harm in letting those lie until this situation is sorted out. Thanks again, &mdash; neuro  (talk) (review) 08:42, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The images are no longer at PUF. Further images will indeed require another email to OTRS. Thanks, — neuro  (talk) (review) 20:54, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It means that I removed the deletion notice, and removed them from the PUF discussion page. :) Thanks, — neuro  (talk) (review) 21:04, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Where are you seeing this message? I see it on neither File:Chronicles.jpg, nor File:The Quiet Time.jpg. — neuro  (talk) (review) 21:51, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, right! Done. :) — neuro  (talk) (review) 22:00, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Try doing a hard cache refresh, or purging. :) — neuro  (talk) (review) 22:02, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Vandalism
You could give them a warning. I've done that for now. :) — neuro  (talk)  09:18, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation
Your upload of File:Blue coffee image.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

File permission problem with File:Blei Door Way.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Blei Door Way.gif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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 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 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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use 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.
