License tagging for File:EmeraldHills-PrayerCenter.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:EmeraldHills-PrayerCenter.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

File:EmeraldHills-PrayerCenter.jpg
Hello. As with other images you uploaded, you haven't specified the license for File:EmeraldHills-PrayerCenter.jpg. As with other images you uploaded, it will be deleted if you don't add one. You have to work hard at it to bypass the version of the upload form that forces you to choose a license from a list. Perhaps, in future, you should use the version that makes you fill in all the information? There are a list of valid licenses here. If you add one, the image won't be deleted. If you want any of the deleted images undeleted so you can add a license, just let me know. Angus McLellan (Talk) 13:25, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello Mr. McLellan. I'm so disappointed with myself that this Wikipedia editing isn't coming more natural for me. I'm not a computer novice, by any means, but I'm a complete novice at the Wikipedia-world. What's more, my life is moving at such a fast pace that I haven't had time to educate myself. Please forgive me. At the same time, I would like for you to know that I've truly truly *tried* to observe the "rules of the road." I stew over copyrights... go to copyright help pages. The reason I re-posted this picture today was because I *thought* I was saying, "I took this picture. It's a picture of a building that our non-profit owns. No one else owns this photo. While we'd rather not release it for general use (in case someone *mis-used* it, at the same time, we don't intend ever to try to make money off of it. So -- what license is that?" I asked a photographer friend of mine that free-lances for Gannett and he told me a certain "class" of license, but, alas, when I got to Wikipedia, that "class" (at least by his name) wasn't listed. So I just hoped the Wikipedia community would forgive me and understand -- this is a photo I took! Why can't I use it in the article I'm composing.

Can you help me at all Mr. McLellan? Please... again... forgive me for not being sharper. :-(

As ashes on the ground, I'd love to ask you to undelete those other images -- but I must confess -- I won't know *where* or *how* to add *which* copyright law. :-( It would be the one that signifies that nobody owns these pictures but me.

 * Well, I can surely try to help. Nobody's born knowing this stuff! There are only really two options for a license, the rest is all just trivia.
 * Put the picture into the public domain. This means you don't have any rights over the picture and anyone can do whatever they like with it. To be honest, I'd not recommend this unless you just don't care. You can do this by adding to the bottom of the page for each picture.
 * Make the picture copyleft. People can use the picture, but there are conditions. They should say that it is your picture. If the photoshop it and distribute it, they have to make it available under the same rules. So you can use any improved versions on your website or newsletter or whatever.
 * Let's assume you'd pick copyleft. Then you need to decide on a license. This is not unlike arguing over which end of the egg to break, or whether Windows or Macs or Linux are best, or Pepsi vs Coke. If I had too pick one, I'd pick Creative Commons, but I prefer Coke to Pepsi, so maybe you wouldn't take my advice ... You can read a whole lot of stuff about this. But life is short and I'm sure you have better things to do.
 * I'd suggest that you go to each picture you uploaded and add or  (depending on how you want your name to appear there) to the bottom of each page. You can see everything you've editing if you click here or by clicking on the "my contributions" link at the top (usually) of the page over on the right hand side. I've undeleted what was deleted as well.
 * I hope this makes sense. If not, just yell. All the best, Angus McLellan (Talk) 22:35, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Mr. McLellan, if I wouldn't be imposing on your goodwill, would you mind telling me exactly where I'm supposed to add the line ??? Do I put it at the end of the description? I tried editing one of them, but it just felt really . . . "jumbly."
 * Once I get this, I'll document it -- and hopefully you won't to tell again.. honest.
 * Thanks.
 * Doug, editing from South Africa

 * I looked at File:EmeraldHills-PrayerCenter.jpg where you'd added the license. What you've done there looks perfectly normal. As you figured out, you don't add the "nowiki" tags. That's just to stop the wiki software reading the text as instructions and adding the license on this page instead of just printing the text you need to type to get the license, if you see what I mean. Angus McLellan (Talk) 20:58, 24 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes... figured out the "nowiki" purpose. Thanks so much for your mentoring, patience, and determination to help. I'll try to replicate what I've done now --- so I can resurrect the other pictures.

Doug
