 * Copyright violations are not permitted. The image added at Colm Wilkinson is taken from here. Johnuniq (talk) 06:57, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
 * you will find i got permission off them to use the image, got to their website and scroll down on the comments you will see someone (me) asking if they can use the image on wikipedia and you will also see that they got their permission. i didnt just steal someones picture — Preceding unsigned comment added by Randalsbit (talk • contribs) 18:15, 7 January 2012
 * The image was deleted because it was claimed to be "own work", when it was an image taken from a website and cropped. Obviously using an edit summary with "Got permission from owner" is not sufficient—for the procedure to donate copyright materials see WP:DCM. Johnuniq (talk) 02:42, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
 * No. This is the Internet, and as you know there are a zillion crazy people here who would say anything. A rather complex procedure is required whereby the owner of the copyright material needs to follow WP:DCM. Johnuniq (talk) 01:22, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
