Hi Aka042 - I have no idea if I'm doing this right ... I had a question for you: Can I request that someone higher up than me (say, an administrator)upload a photo to the entry I've created, since I can't? I have a photo of Yvonne Latty that needs to be posted on the page. Please let me know if someone can do it for me. Thanks! Florafair (talk) 04:53, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:LattyYvonneap-1-.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:LattyYvonneap-1-.jpg I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media 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 GFDL 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 [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org 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 did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org].

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 Image copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Image 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 uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Image permission problem with Image:LattyYvonneap-1-.jpg
Hi Peripitus - I got your message about the image I uploaded, and I wanted to explain the situation and get your advice about what to do. I am Yvonne Latty's assistant, and I posted a wikipedia page about her and her work. The image I uploaded is a promo photo that is owned by her, and she asked me to include it on the page. I'm not sure what license/permission this would fall under. Please advise! Thanks Florafair (talk) 21:00, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi Florafair and thank you for your message. We would welcome an image of her but I just need to make sure that you/her understand the way licencing works here. For living people we only host images released under free licences. In general that means that anyone (wikipedia or other places) can take the image, modify it, reuse it etc. basically without having to pay any fee or ask permission. All of of the free licences largely have the same effect. The simplest one is "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0" which basically states anyone can use the image for what they will but they have to attribute it's source (usually a simple "photo from/by xxxx"). Does this answer your question ? If not please drop me a further note - Peripitus (Talk) 21:39, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
