This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:2014 Val-Thorens Luyten-De-Hauwere 12.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Hi! Your userpage says "Bram Luyten" and the author on many files is "Denis and Chris Luyten-De Hauwere". Can you have them send a permission for our permission system? --MGA73 (talk) 16:13, 12 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

I made a note on Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard#User_need_help and I think it will be easier if you talk to someone from OTRS directly. I am no longer a member of OTRS team. --MGA73 (talk) 16:31, 12 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dankuwel voor het ophelderen van de auteurschap van die bestanden bij de verwijderingsverzoeken. Toen ik die licentie onderzocht vond ik de foto's die u hier heeft geüpload en ik moet zeggen dat zij er geweldig uitzien. Dankuwel (en dank uw ~~oom en~~ tante) voor uw bijdragen aan deze collectie van vrije menselijke kennis. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:10, 24 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Bram - I have just been identifying the remaining unidentified birds from your Snow Hill Island set. One, File:2007 Snow-Hill-Island Luyten-De-Hauwere, Upland Goose 01.jpg, shows Upland Geese Chloephaga picta, a South American species not currently mapped as occurring in the Antarctic Peninsula. Can you confirm if this photo was definitely taken on Snow Hill Island, or might it have been taken in southern South America on the way to the Antarctic, please? I notice its EXIF date (26 October 2007) is different to the others in the set (mostly 30 October to 6 November 2007). Thanks! - MPF (talk) 16:47, 22 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

OK, found a related file with the same date File:2007 Snow-Hill-Island Luyten-De-Hauwere-Ushuaia-02.jpg, taken in Ushuaia, problem solved! - MPF (talk) 23:20, 22 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
