How does X work?
I am trying to add images to this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daiane_Sodr%C3%A9, but have no idea how to add an image that I have not taken. I'm confused by the how to guide.


 * Adding an image you haven't taken is tricky due to copyright. Who owns the copyright of the image, and is that person willing to release the image under a free license that allows everybody to re-use and modify the image for all purposes, including commercial purposes? Then you can ask the copyright holder to send the image, and a release form, to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. A standard release form is at WP:Declaration of consent for all enquiries. See WP:Requesting copyright permission for more details on how to ask for permission to re-use copyrighted content on Wikipedia (and beyond - a "Wikipedia only" license won't do).

Thank you! So is this the only option for when you want to add an image of someone who has 100's of images on google images? Lets say for a "celebrity" even? Mpresto8 (talk) 19:50, 4 September 2015 (UTC)


 * In short, yes. If there are hundreds of copyrighted non-free images on Google Images, that's no excuse to violate copyright. Of course, if there already exist freely licensed images, we can make use of those - but we need evidence of the licensing, one way or another. Huon (talk) 21:57, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Pink Shark Marketing


A tag has been placed on Pink Shark Marketing requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Pichpich (talk) 21:10, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Alexis Rodney Actor.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Alexis Rodney Actor.jpg. 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 22:32, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Alexis Rodney
Hello Mpresto8,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Alexis Rodney for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 19:56, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
