De Weed page Dear Jarek, There are copyright problems with Kaart_1911.jpg and Openstreetview2015.jpg. In the first, I scanned a part of an old topographical card from the government and must have the same permission as for example File:Topografie_De_Krim_1914.jpg, the second image is from a public domain site openstreetview. I don't know how to alter the tags to achieve this.

FG2A logo
Hello,
Thank you for your help regarding the upload of the FG2A logo. I have to admit I am not quite sure I understand what I need to do to upload the logo on the page. In order to get real copyright, I reached out to them on their contact us page asking them to send me a copy of their logo in order for me to use (with their rights) on Wikipédia. I hope they will answer but they might never see my email... In case I do get an email back from them (or even if I don't), what am I supposed to do to upload it onto their wikipedia page?
Thank you for your help.

The pic Madina Masjid Chas is a big place which is situated in Ghaous Nagar Colony,Chas,Bokaro(India). And i think this info should be in Wikipedia also as because this info is available already in Google Map.Therfore, i think for this u dont require any license.
If then also license is required,then please help me to get license by which i can upload All info of my area Chas Bokaro.
Phantom File Question
Hi! I'm not entirely sure to how to change the tag on the photo, but in your FAQ it says something about how if it's deleted you can undelete and fix the problem? I'm not sure how to tag it as the "fair use" mentioned on the last bulletpoint of the third FAQ- Could you either help me understand how to do it or do it yourself? I contacted the publisher of the comic (Hermes Press) and he said I could upload the image, but I wasn't sure how to tag it. If I've misunderstood, could you help me?
Thanks!

File:Russian nobility Perekhrestov Osipov .jpg
Good day. Thank you for the comment posted by me image. I have made changes in licensing. Check the correctness of the operations performed by me. I usually use pictures made by me. But in this situation, to illuminate the history I describe in the region had to use this image. Thank you for your help. Blitz1980 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank you. Marker "PD-RusEmpire". If quality, thanks to You I learned about the lack of continuity of Russia against the Russian Empire. Also this coat of arms was approved in the late eighteenth century (1796). I used the marker "PD-old-100". As it is just as good. I hope to use more than one marker is permitted.

Hi Jared
I got your note on the photo. I have made changes, first time using wiki commons but I hope I got it right.
Thanks Sabu
Hi Jared
Thanks for helping me through this.
I'll speak to the owner and get the paperwork.
In the meantime, I'll remove the image.

Public Emblem Work
Hello Jarekt,
thanks for your message. The picture NuovoMarchioBL.gif I uploaded is a public emblem taken from the government site. I think the one Provincia di Belluno-Stemma.gif is from the same source and the two should have identical licence terms, but I do not have any further method to confirm. If you think this is not sufficient, please remove it, as I am out of options. Thanks!

Support request with team editing experiment project
Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my project noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards from User:Micru on meta.

Pierre Saint-Paul, photo André Morain 1999
Bonjour, suite à votre message concernant la photo de Pierre Saint-Paul, je précise que j'ai envoyé un mail à permissions-commons-fr@wikimédia.org le 28 05 2015 avec en PJ la lettre type d'autorisation: datée, cachetée et signée par André Morain. Je ne vois pas ce que je peux faire de plus. Merci de m'en informer. Bien cordialement --Philippe HENRION (talk) 12:28, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
- Philippe, when you send permission to permissions-commons-fr@wikimédia.org, it should have looked like this and I am looking for the license that the image was supposed to use. For example in here the license is "Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International", which matches {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} license template. You should have got a reply email back with 16 digit ticket number. Can you give it to me? than I can look up the license. --Jarekt (talk) 12:40, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Bonjour, si je comprends bien votre demande: oui j'ai bien stipulé sur la lettre type "créative commons attribution-share alike 4.0 international". Mais je n'ai pas reçu un email de réponse avec 16 chiffres, je n'ai rien reçu de tout... Bien cordialement --Philippe HENRION (talk) 17:34, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Philippe, I added {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} to the image and removed {{No license}}. The next step would be to wait for OTRS to process your ticket. I could not find any new OTRS ticket while searching for "Pierre Saint-Paul" or for "André Morain". I do not know if permissions-commons-fr@wikimédia.org automatically sends confirmation email with 16 digit ticket number. It is a new thing and some parts of OTRS already do and some do not yet. However if you do not hear from OTRS in a week or two than I would ask for help one of those guys. Regards. --Jarekt (talk) 18:15, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
Ok, merci...--Philippe HENRION (talk) 08:05, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Images for Doris Cole Wiki page, by Pmcborn
Hi Jarekt,
I'm not sure how to further clarify that the images I am uploading, Doris Cole.jpg, Damson & Greengage Gourmet Deli.jpg, East Boston High School.jpg, and Arcology Skyscraper.jpg, were sent to me from Doris Cole, who owns all rights to the photos and has given me permission to release them under a free license to be on Wikipedia. If the information I have provided is not enough, please let me know what else I need to provide to have the photos uploaded.
Thank you, Pmcborn
- You should read COM:OTRS and request Doris Cole to send permission like this to OTRS. Once the email is send you can replace {{No permission}} with {{OTRS Pending}} or let me know and I will do it. Regards --Jarekt (talk) 13:58, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

ITMO_logo_rus_2014.png
Hello. You've removed a file https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:ITMO_logo_rus_2014.png referring to the absent license information. Actually license code were obtain from WikiCommons which allows reuse any information from ifmo.ru domain at Wikipedia servers. The code was specified. What was wrong? Thank you. Maodit (talk) 14:42, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- The file File:ITMO_logo_rus_2014.png downloded from [6] was removed by User:Green Giant because it did not have a license template, and all files on commons are required to have one. If those files are free any one of the license templates can be applied I will undelete the image. --Jarekt (talk) 15:19, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you. Can you recommend the valid license for the logo of the university? And it is still unclear why I should use another license information since I have already obtained and specified in file description OTRS permission: {{PermissionOTRS|2015021010012043}}
Maodit (talk) 21:02, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
I would add this template: {{Copyright by Wikimedia}} Thank you! Maodit (talk) 21:08, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- License template and OTRS permission are mostly unrelated to each other: license template tells other users under what conditions was image released by the copyright holder (university in your case) and {{PermissionOTRS}} provides a link which can be followed by few trusted users to a database with correspondence related to this image. All images are required to have a license template. Luckily I was able to look up the license under {{PermissionOTRS|2015021010012043}} and apparently the image was released under {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}} license. That is all I was looking for. --Jarekt (talk) 17:37, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
Pliki z szablonem {{subst:OP}}
Cześć. Dostałem od Ciebie ostrzeżenie, że pliki, które dziś dodałem nie zawierają informacji o licencjach i mogą być usunięte. Jak widać np. w tym pliku i w każdym innym dziś dodanym wstawiłem tam szablon {{subst:OP}}, czyli o przesłaniu pozwolenia do systemu OTRS. Czy tych informacji nie widać, albo czy użyłem szablonu nieprawidłowo? H.Rabiega (talk) 17:25, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- {{PermissionOTRS}} widzę ale nie widzę żadnego szablonu licencji, jak {{CC-BY-SA-3.0}} używany w poprzednich plikach Marka Kubskiego. Kazdy plik na Commons albo ma licencje albo ma szablon {{No license}}. Jeśli autor wciąż używa {{CC-BY-SA-3.0}} to dodaj ten szablon do plików i wyrzuć {{No license}}. Jeśli autor używa inna licencje to dodaj ja. Pozdrowienia --Jarekt (talk) 17:47, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Okej, dodałem zatem szablony {{CC-BY-SA-4.0}}, zamiast {{No license}}. Przy kolejnych plikach będę dodawał zarówno {{CC-BY-SA-4.0}}, jak i {{OTRS pending}}. Dzięki i pozdrawiam H.Rabiega (talk) 19:10, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
Regarding book cover photo
Dear sir, since you've had some doubts regarding the copyrights of the photo I uploaded a couple days ago, I want to make sure you know that there is 100% no issue with publishing the book cover in the wikipedia especially that the resolution used was quiet low and in addition, the author of this book, Mr Alfakhroo, has noted in his book (on page 2) that he has no problem with anyone republishing text or photos available if attributed to him and with no-commercial benefits. Kind regards, Mohamed bin Ibrahim (talk) 18:23, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
- Fair use images are not allowed on Commons, see Commons:Fair use, same for works with no-commercial restriction. Either way the image is still missing a license template and all images on commons are required to have one. --Jarekt (talk) 18:28, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Titan971118's answers
Hi! Yes, really No required license templates, but they always deleting my files (strictly 7 times), where don't have to required license templates. I don't no why (?) Titan971118 (talk) 16:20, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
- Titan, You should read com:lic. In short, all the files on commons are required to have a license template and all files without them are deleted. So please do not upload files without them. License templates are chosen by the copyright holders or authors, If you do not created the photo or image or do not hold copyrights to it than you can not pick a license (unless it is in Public domain). Once you read com:lic and you have questions let me know and I will try to help. --Jarekt (talk) 16:38, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
All of them are really good and nice, but i would like to ask something: Why are on the Wikipedia so much logo of football teams, teams, towns and others? Because, that i uploaded with commons, that's logo of a national football team. What have to do to agree that? Titan971118 (talk) 17:36, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
- Titan971118, All files on Commons have licenses, and you should look at each file to see what license they used. Although, some licenses might not be correct. --Jarekt (talk) 02:50, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
Manetin coat of arms
Dear Jaarekt, recently you filed a claim of insufficient copyright status on the arms of Manetin I uploaded. The arms are sourced from the Heraldry of the world website which in turn sources them from the Czech national municipal symbol register. Here the arms of most armiguous Czech towns and cities are stored and published under no licence. I am afraid that I have no idea what a licence template is on Wikipedia and quite honestly don't have the time or feel an inclination to study it. If you are interested in keeping the arms on Wikipedia, feel free to add a licence template. :) Sincerely --Avenflight (talk) 21:27, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
- Avenflight, when uploading new images to Commons you have two options: (1) create graphics yourself -> than you can give it any license you want or (2) download it from somewhere -> but then you have to prove that image is in public domain or released under open license. If you "don't have the time or feel an inclination" to figure out "what a licence template is", than you should stick to option #1 and only upload graphics you created. --Jarekt (talk) 16:15, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
Files waiting for deletion
Hi, thanks for notifying me on several cases of possible deletion. Let me clarify: 1. "File:Shahnameh Azeri Translation Book Cover.jpg" is my photo from the cover of a book published in 1934 (more than 70 years ago) in the Soviet Union.
2. File:Abbas Djavadi DNA Test Results.jpg as well as: 3. File:Abbas Djavadi Regional, Ancestral History.jpg 4. File:Iranian Population Ancestory.png 5. File:My and Georgian Regional Ancestry.jpg 6. File:My and North Caucasian Regional Ancestry.jpg are ALL parts of my personal DNA test results about my ancestry sent to me by Genographic Project of National Geographic. In the notification and their website they clearly state that they do NOT claim any ownership over the downloads, charts and tables of those results (see: "Terms of Service, http://www.nationalgeographic.com/community/terms/).
I appreciate your concerns. I'm just new with Commons!
Regards, Abbas.djavadi
Picture Professor Howard Richards
Hello Jarekt: Sorry for this upload, which I wanted to remove myself straight away, but which I do not know how to! So could you please do it (ie delete it) for me, thanks. The reason is that the picture is un-usable because it is 1. (Far) too small and 2. Too low definition. I took it off the Professor's webpage and he wrote the accompanying permission note for it. I have now written to him to ask him to please get me the original of the webpage picture or send me an alternative, picture of himself, provided either are full-size. So, whatever happens, I will not be using, nor am I planning to ever use the picture I just uploaded. So I would be happy if you could delete it. Sorry for this.

All of the files using this are added to Category:Artworks without Wikidata item. Could you possibly change this to, for example, Category:Heraldry without Wikidata item? Also, certain coats of arms do have a Wikidata item. Can you make it so that the Wikidata parameter can be used in the template? :-) Tom-L (talk) 10:11, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

- Tom-L, Done --Jarekt (talk) 05:22, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Hmm, the Wikidata thing seems to place itself in the title parameter, which this template normally doesn't use. Looks kinda awkward, but probably working as designed. Tom-L (talk) 08:56, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Please see OTRS ticket here
Re: your deletion notice Thanks for your efforts to track permissions, protecting both wikipedia and authors. I'll post this on your Talk page too. I was kindly helped in setting up this permission by Antrandrus a couple of years ago, so maybe there's something new needed? John Wiley (talk) 23:04, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- --Jarekt (talk) 23:09, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
Resolved- Thanks Jarekt. So if I'm understanding correctly then, from now on when I paste in the text linking to the OTRS ticket, it will now correctly show the v3 info?
- What is v3 info? --Jarekt (talk) 04:26, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- v3 = CC3.0 [12] I'm not clear on what you changed, and whether there's anything more I'd need do in future to avoid triggering another takedown notice. John Wiley (talk) 07:55, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
- I am sorry I assumed you could check what I have done. Here is my edit and you can get it by clicking History next to Edit source. And in the future you always need to add {{CC-by-3.0}} (or other license template) when uploading as with any image upload, and if you have OTRS ticket than you should paste it as well when uploading. --Jarekt (talk) 13:05, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
- OK, so apparently there's something different required now than in the years since Antandrus added the OTRS ticket. My understanding then was that someone wanted to take down my CC3 work because it was similar to my larger (c) versions of the same pix on Flickr. I've posted many pix since then with no problems, but maybe there's something new that means the CC3 tag you've added will be required going forward (or maybe must now be retroactively added to all my prior published work?)? Or is it just that some new feature now flags volunteers like you when the two specific "int:license-header CC-by-3.0" lines aren't present on a NEW page? I thought that the OTRS ticket already specified CC3 while also adding the clarification as to why there were multiple versions of my same pix (some (c), some CC3). Is there a way to add a specific CC3 line inside the existing OTRS ticket, so another volunteer doesn't flag it for takedown as happened before the OTRS ticket? As you can see, it's all a bit confusing for me so I appreciate your help in figuring it out. Again, thanks for your efforts to protect both WikiMedia and its contributors of original work.

- Thanks Jarekt. So if I'm understanding correctly then, from now on when I paste in the text linking to the OTRS ticket, it will now correctly show the v3 info?
Advice needed for template and tag for File:2015-07-14 1504 Lincliff captured by Bing from Wikipedia.png.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 23:17, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
Jarekt, the photo in this file is not my original photograph. However I did create the file. I tried uploading the photo of the entrance to Lincliff directly from a Wikipedia article entitled Lincliff into a draft of an article I am writing about Eleanor Silliman Belknap Humphrey, whose father built Lincliff, an historic building which was her family home. However, the photo, which had been designated by the person who created the file as available for re-use, uploaded much too large. In an attempt to diminish its size in my draft, I captured it with Bing and created a new file. How do I answer the question about whether this FILE is my own work? Yes, I created the file, but I did not shoot the photo. Which license tag should I use, and where should it be placed in relation to the file name in my edit?
It seems that every time I try to submit a photo to Wikimedia, the circumstances are different, and the re-directs are so frequent, that I have a hard time getting it right. Thank you for your assistance.Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 23:17, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- Mitzi.humphrey, I do not get it. So you cropped the image and you dropped the resolution. But why? Why is the original "much too large"?--Jarekt (talk) 04:40, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Paulie Zink photo
Hi Jarekt,
I'm pretty new to uploading photos and permissions. I did upload a photo along with a description of the type of permission slip, but didn't see any way of uploading the permission form. So I sent an email to Wikimedia Permissions (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org) with both the photo and a signed permission slip attached.
I just today received an email back from Leon Haanstra at Wikimedia Permissions.
Dear EMP, This permission seems to be from a person depicted in the photograph, but the copyright holder of a photograph is the person who took the photograph, rather than a person who appears in it, unless the copyright is transferred by operation of law or contract. Can you please have the photographer send in a free license release for this image, or clarify how the copyright was transferred? Yours sincerely, Leon Haanstra
I am just now checking with Paulie and his wife (who I think took the photo) to get the details. Leon said if someone other than Paulie's spouse took the photo, I'd have to send in another permission form, signed by the photographer (even if the photographer has given the photo to Paulie). But if Paulie's wife did take it, no further paperwork would be needed.
But should I send in something else for your files?
Thanks for your patience with this. EMP (talk) 00:48, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- EMP I added license templates based on the description found. Leon is right about the permission. It is a common misunderstanding about copyright holders. --Jarekt (talk) 04:54, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Fairfax City Parade - 2015-07-04 - NON-Chevrolet Caprice
The three pictures you have of a low-rider at the July 4, 2015 Fairfax City Parade, claiming to be a Chevrolet Caprice, are actually of a Cadillac Coupe de Ville from the early-1980's. I just though this was something you ought to know. ----DanTD (talk) 01:36, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you, I think I corrected all places Chevrolet Caprice was mentioned. --Jarekt (talk) 05:04, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi Jarekt,
picture was taken by my daughter. Release to permissions will be sent. Please allow for a few days.
Cheers, --Mussklprozz (talk) 08:05, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- Mussklprozz, Please add a license template, like {{Cc-by-4.0}}, and you will have a month. --Jarekt (talk) 19:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
