 * Best to ask for help on commons. You can always ask copyright questions at c:COM:VPC. I see you are trying to use an image from a web site. Unlikely to be a free image and therefore not allowed. Unless you can find the small black and white CC logo like this one on the web page with the picture. Ron h jones (Talk) 12:56, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

Subject : Deletion of the photograph on the wikipedia page

We are creating a Wikipedia page for a spiritual master from India Dr. D G Vinod, aka Maharshi Vinod. When we tried to upload his picture on the Wikipedia Commons, the Krdbot deleted it as it found the same picture on the website http://www.maharshivinod.org/. This deletion has happened twice and we have received an email informing us that it is not a good practice to recreate the deleted content and repeated violation of this Wikipedia policy from our side may result in our loosing editing rights.

Kindly note that we work for the institute ‘Maharshi Vinod Research Foundation’, based in Pune, India and the website http://www.maharshivinod.org/ belongs to us. Recently, we have taken a new initiative to create a Wikipedia page for Dr. D. G Vinod aka Maharshi Vinod as we have been told that through Wikipedia we will be able to reach many more people than through our website. Kindly note that we are not violating any copyright as all the photographs are our own property.

Can anyone help us on how to overcome this problem?

 * The image must be uploaded with the proper tagging and rights assertions. However, I would also point out that the "initiative" upon which you are working is a violation of Wikipedia's policies on conflicts of interest and should not be pursued by anyone associated with your group without disclosing that the edits are being made by an individual or individuals that may be receiving compensation for those edits. Please also make sure that the individual for whom you are looking to create a page passes Wikipedia's policies on general notability, as a failure to meet the requirements set out there would likely result in the deletion of the page.
