File permission problem with File:Eleanor Noble.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Eleanor Noble.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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 07:46, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Jake Beale.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Jake Beale.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 page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 07:43, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

 * It might help if you explain to us what the difference is, and what one should do if not sure... Peridon (talk) 17:27, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Here's the deal. Wikipedia assumes for its own defense that every image on the Internet is copyrighted, unless otherwise explicitly indicated. There's no need that it have an explicit copyright notice. So, where are you going to obtain (for example) a non-copyrighted image of Michael Caloz? --jpgordon:==( o ) 00:26, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked.

 * I also note that you have been using your IP to continue to edit articles to try to add images. That IP has been blocked for block evasion. Singularity42 (talk) 17:05, 8 September 2013 (UTC)


 * It looks to me like you still don't completely understand. It's not just a matter of sourcing. If someone takes one of my stories and posts it somewhere, I'm not going to be a happy little bunny. Even if they attribute it to me. It's mine, and for making money. (That doesn't apply to stories I make up on Wikipedia to explain things - they're licensed. I mean my stuff outside Wikipedia.) That's what copyright violation is. Taking someone that belongs to someone and using it without their permission. If the police stopped you when you were driving a car you'd just found, what do you think they'd do if you said, 'Oh, it's OK. I know whose it is. It's Fred Bloggs's car. No, he didn't give me permission to drive it.'? Peridon (talk) 20:54, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
