File:Pontospic.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added may soon be deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please replace the copyvio tag with {{subst:OP}} and have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you disagree that the file is a copyright violation for any other reason, please replace the copyvio tag with a regular deletion request. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Hi Artifact101,
As explained in the upload form: « Not your own file? Or already published elsewhere? Use {{OTRS pending|month=August|day=14|year=2009}} and send permission by e-mail. Also for specialized license tags. » Here, it is the official poster of a festival, so, you have to prove that you really are the copyright owner sending a declaration by email (see Commons:OTRS).
Without this declaration, all the files that look like Commons:Fair use are marked as copyvios.
Please also note that uploading this file on commons, you allow commercial re-use of this file.
Have a good day. Regards. Peter17 (talk) 05:36, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. I have sent the following email:
To permissions-commonswikimedia.org I hereby assert that I am the creator and/or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of WORK [ File:Pontospic.jpg]
I agree to publish that work under the free license GNU Free Documentation License from http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Choosing_a_license#Common_free_licenses I acknowledge that I grant Wiki User account artifact101 the right to use the work in a commercial product, and to modify it according to their needs, as long as they abide by the terms of the license and any other applicable laws. I am aware that I always retain copyright of my work, and retain the right to be attributed in accordance with the license chosen. Modifications others make to the work will not be attributed to me. I am aware that the free license only concerns copyright, and I reserve the option to take action against anyone who uses this work in a libelous way, or in violation of personality rights, trademark restrictions, etc. I acknowledge that I cannot withdraw this agreement, and that the work may or may not be kept permanently on a Wikimedia project. 14 August 2009, Peter Stefanidis -- Regards Peter Stefanidis
After this I will upload the OTRS number to this page revealing pending authorisation. Hopefully then once I receive the "Permission OTRS" this would satisfy the Wiki community.
What happens until then?
Regards
Peter Stefanidis
- Peter,
- Thanks for this authorization. I added the template OTRS pending on the page File:Pontos Pic.jpg, so, nobody will delete the file.
- Now, we can just wait for the OTRS volunteers to confirm they have received the email.

Thanks for uploading File:Pontos_Pic.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Pontos_Pic.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |
