Herzog photo
Hi M- thanks a lot for your Herzog photo- it's a great picture. Wikimedia Commons has a process called OTRS for establishing permissions to use photos which were obtained by professional or commercial sources. Basically you have the rights holder (maybe Lena Herzog, maybe a marketing company for Herzog) email Commons and tell them that they approve the CC license. Note that you need the current rights-holder, which may not necessarily be the photographer. L. Herzog may have given up her rights to relicense the photograph when it was used to market the film. Hopefully not though. Follow the OTRS instructions and let me know if you need any help. I hope it works- Staecker (talk) 11:51, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
