File source problem with File:Guillermo de Vega and Family 1969.png
Thanks for uploading File:Guillermo de Vega and Family 1969.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:53, 25 October 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Zoo Fari  17:53, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Some information about Wikipedia policies
Just as an informational message, I wanted to let you know about the conflict of interest policy. I notice that you asserted that Guillermo C. de Vega was your father. This is not a problem on its own—especially since the article is quite good—but you just need to be aware that in cases where you have a close relationship to the subject of the article, you should defer to the judgment of neutral editors to avoid the appearance of bias. Since your edits seem well-sourced and neutrally-phrased, please keep on editing, because you're doing a good job.

Also, those pictures you posted to the site (File:Guillermo de Vega 1969.png and File:Guillermo de Vega and Family 1969.png) need to have licence and source information. You probably know who took those pictures, and whether you have permission to use them on Wikipedia. Definitely look at WP:IMAGE and WP:IUP for details on copyright and appropriate image use. Just as an introduction to the topic, pictures posted to Wikipedia must be one of three things: public domain images, licenced images or fair-use (under U.S. law) images.


 * If the image is in the public domain, it means there is no copyright. That could be because the copyright owner waived it, or it was never eligible, or the copyright expired. These can be uploaded freely—you just have to give a good-faith explanation of why they are in the public domain.
 * If you own the copyright (e.g. the photographer granted you the copyright, or you inherited the copyright, or you took the picture), then you can release it under a free licence. But that process means that anyone can use the photo for any purpose, even for profit.
 * If you don't own the photograph's copyright, then you could assert a claim of fair use—but then the image has to meet all of the requirements of WP:NFCC, for each time it is used. (The images you uploaded don't meet those criteria.) In this case, it's better to let the images be deleted, since they're not usable in an article for legal reasons.

In all cases, use information on the image page, to provide the source information, then tag it to indicate the licence/public domain status. If the image is public domain or licenced, you should consider uploading to Wikimedia Commons (a free image repository) instead—these images are directly accessible on Wikipedia as well. (Very similar procedures apply there, except fair use isn't allowed.) TheFeds 22:53, 25 October 2009 (UTC)


 * You've added the same photographs as before, under different filenames (File:Gimo 1969.jpg & File:Gimo Family 1969.jpg). The problem is, you still haven't included reasonable source information. Did you take the picture? If not, you can't claim that it's your own work. Who took the picture, and do you own the copyright (and for what reason)? You can't licence the photo without the consent of the copyright owner. If you do own the copyright, you should follow the instructions at commons:COM:OTRS (or WP:CONSENT, if uploading to Wikipedia instead).


 * Furthermore, the date given is obviously today's date, and not the date the photograph was taken; that needs to be fixed. (The MediaWiki software will record the date of upload on its own.) TheFeds 17:10, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Guillermo de Vega and Family 1969.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Guillermo de Vega and Family 1969.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:23, 2 May 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:23, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
