Request Information

 * Request made by: Chuck Marean 17:14, 27 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Where is the issue taking place?
 * ...Image:O-cel-o brand scrub sponges .jpg and my talk page.


 * Who's involved?
 * ...User:ZimZalaBim


 * What's going on?
 * ...User:ZimZalaBim deleted an image of sponges even though it's alright to use them. I gave the attribution, but User:ZimZalaBim claims not to understand it. I already read the source of the image's web site and did what they said, which was to put the copyright notice and slogan. I also put the tag saying their site said it is OK to use the picture, i.e., but User:ZimZalaBim seems not to have noticed it.


 * ''What would you like to change about that?
 * ...I want the image undeleted. I need it for my article. I don't own a digital camera, so User:ZimZalaBim's claim I should take pictures myself doesn't make as much sense as User:ZimZalaBim thinks. User:ZimZalaBim could read the company's web site. www.o-cel-o.com and would see they are giving permission to use the picture as long as they are given credit as they were.


 * Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
 * ...I just want the image undeleted so it can be used. I could not take a better picture.
