Request to be unblocked To Whom It May Concern: I request to be unblocked on Wikipedia for the following reasons: Yes, I continued to upload the same images, with different ezplanations. I was given specific permission by the owner of the images, Scott Styles, the male adult performer whose entry I was editing AT HIS PERSONAL REQUEST. The images were approved by him for use on his Wikipedia entry, and I was sincerely attempting to provide the information required by Wikipedia for using these images. This is the first time I had ever tried to upload images to Wikipedia, and used other different Wikipedia entries as examples for my efforts, such as Ken Ryker, and Randy Spears. However, I found the regulations and rules for uploading images so confusing and convoluted that they made no sense to me. There is no Help page or contact information for advice on uploading images properly that I could find. If I may suggest, Wikipedia should have a Help Desk of some kind, a Customer Service address that can be contacted for help and suggestions on such problems. I have since apologized to Scott Styles for not being able to provide a complete Wikipedia entry for him, since I could use the images he approved for its use. His reply is that he will contact you via e-mail to try to resolve the issue of copyrights and permission to use his images for his entry. I would appreciate a response on this issue as soon as possible. I can be contacted via e-mail at imladmorgul@yahoo.com. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Jesse Portillo (Marcher1)

License tagging for Image:ScottStyles2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:ScottStyles2.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

ScottStyles2 pic in open shirt and undies from his fan group.jpg
The image Image:ScottStyles2 pic in open shirt and undies from his fan group.jpg, which you uploaded, has been listed for speedy deletion because you indicated that only non-commercial or educational use of the file is allowed, or that only Wikipedia has permission to use it. 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 this restriction on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more information.

If you created this image (i.e. you shot the photo or drew the image yourself) and want it to be available on Wikipedia, you may re-upload the image, choosing from the Licensing dropdown menu "GFDL (self made)", "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5", or "You created this yourself and release it into the public domain." Be aware that every one of these options allows other people to legally modify or re-use your image for commercial or non-educational purposes without asking further permission. If the image has already been deleted, you may re-upload it, choosing a correct license from the dropdown menu.

If you did not create this image but believe it needs to be used on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. The first way is to re-upload the image, adding to the image's description page a fair use tag from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to the file. Every fair use image which is not used in an article, or does not name its copyright owner, or does not have a rationale for its use will be deleted. The second way is 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. --Andrew Levine 21:34, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Those images
Please do not upload images with inappropriate licenses for their intended use again. We cannot use specific-permission licenses because we are committed to allowing mirrors to productively use our content. We also cannot use magazine covers under fair use to illustrate anything but the magazine. Please don't reupload these -- you've been warned a number of times - doing so again puts you at risk of being blocked. --Improv 13:55, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Blocked Indefinitely
I have blocked you indefinitely for continuing to upload an image, despite numerous warnings, in violation of our license policies.
