Paintings by James Jarvaise
editHello. I see you have uploaded paintings of the late Jean James Jarvaise and agreed to use CC BY-SA 4.0. I wonder whether you have read the licensing terms, saying that you agreed to waive your rights to collect royalties and to waive and never to assert your moral rights. Moreover, COM:Licensing requires conditions, like never cancelling out or never revoking the license (also per wmf:Terms of Use#7. Licensing of Content), and allowing unrestricted and unlimited commercial use. I wonder whether you are aware of this. Also, has your family agreed to those conditions yet?

- Sent you email. George Ho (talk) 19:43, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Thnak you for the email. Are those links to smaller images? Can I just resubmit those images? I think as you said lower resolution images would not be an issue. Thanks for the help with this.
- The links aren't to smaller images (but the same images uploaded in same high-resolution). You should go to COM:OTRS/Noticeboard and ask about reducing the above images (i.e. the links that you should copy and paste) and this ticket (ticket:2016111010026251), or I can do it on your behalf. George Ho (talk) 22:01, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
- Of course, you can email them about your second thoughts on your original statement, but without someone else challenging (and/or invalidating) the statement and the licensing, I predict they would say that you already granted permission to use the hi-rez images under an irrevocable license and that cancelling out the release is impossible (unless it's out of scope).

- Thank you George. I am in contact the Administrator that helped with the licensing, and hope to have this resolved soon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jean Jarvaise (talk • contribs) 16:43, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

- Even when one of the copyright holder(s) didn't know the conditions at the time of statement release? George Ho (talk) 20:54, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks
editHello Ho,
I had help from one of Wiki administrators to license the paintings . I was not aware of the conditions, and believe you are correct that this is not the best option. Can you please give me options to keep the paintings up , but keep have them restricted? Thank you.
