Hi Cool Cat! I wanted to ask you if it is allowed to use this image here (need it in an article): http://nla.gov.au/nla.cs-pa-HTTP%253A%252F%252FNLA.GOV.AU%252FNLA.PIC-AN6054546 http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an6054546 Thanks --Alexander Gouk 04:18, 19 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Do you know when the image was made and by whom? If the author of the image died 70+ years ago, image may be in the pd. Additional details (Such as weather or not images copyright was renewed) would be needed for clarification.

On the page you linked the copyright notice suggests:

"You may save or print this image for research and study. If you wish to use it for any other purposes, you must complete the Request for permission form."

That doesn't necessarily mean it is available for commercial purposes nor does it necessarily mean alterations are allowed, both needs to be clarified. I recommend asking the library the details and getting that answer to permissions@wikimedia.org Thats the cleanest, fastest and most effective way to tackle it.

transfer to commons edit

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hey! While transfering images from local Wikipedias to Wikimedia Commons please pay attention to use the correct licence tags from the original uploader and to mention his name – otherwise it’s a violation of copyrights. Commons helper is a nice tool to automate image transfer – give it a try. Regards, --Polarlys 14:38, 18 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your account will be renamed edit

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Alexander Gouk. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Alexander Gouk~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
