IMG question for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawn_Tully

Hi OxOa, You were so kind to help me with questions about copyrights on a photo I had used for my article. So it was removed, but now someone has added the same photo back in. I am unfortunately not skilled enough yet, to see where they got that copy from, and if THAT is in fact copied with copyrights that works. Do you know how I can check that? Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it! Best, Mwikiforce Mwikiforce (talk) 15:12, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

@Mwikiforce Thanks for the notice. In this case, since the uploader gave the correct authorship, I can’t rule out that the uploader did have the consent of the photographer. In any case, however, a written permission from the author is still required. 0x0a (talk) 16:01, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Oh, that's cool! What's the difference of authorship and written consent from the author? Where do you see the author? Maybe I can reach out to them (if I can find them) and ask for a written consent? :-) thank you SO much!! This is incredibly helpful!

@Mwikiforce Hi, this can be inferred. We know Shawn Tully is a journalist at Fortune Magazine. Coincidentally, Mia Diehl is a photographer at Fortune Media according to the page. So, it's reasonable to attribute this photo to Mia Diehl. However, the uploader is clearly not the author, and we need explicit permission from the author to indicate his consent to publish it under the given license. A written permission can be sent directly to VRT via email from the author. Or by uploading a scan copy of paper permission, please see COM:VRT for details. I think Mia Diehl's email address has been posted here, you may have a try. Best. 0x0a (talk) 20:36, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

OMG! You are amazing! Where did you find this info? Can I find it somewhere? I will definitely try to write her.

I have also gone online and found some videos on both Fortune where I took snapshots (not behind a paywall), and on YouTube. Would I be able to use both of those - if I can’t get a permission? Thank you SO much OxOa! This is SO helpful!

best, Mwikiforce :-) Mwikiforce (talk) 21:42, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

I thought I answered this already, but didn’t see it for some reason on the thread. I found some videos on Fortune, and on YouTube that I thought I could use instead. I know you answered on YouTube, but how about Fortune? Can I use screenshots from thee too? Mwikiforce (talk) 22:06, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

@Mwikiforce You don't upload videos from Fortune without consent from the authors. Not every author agree their works hosted on wikimedia for free use. 0x0a (talk) 05:15, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Got it. That makes sense :-) Thank you again for the advice! :-) Mwikiforce (talk) 20:31, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

关于我重复上传侵权图片的问题

首先我非常抱歉，关于我上传侵权图片的行为，同时辛苦您的审核，在这里向您表示敬意。我希望在这里可以跟您澄清，因为我所上传的图片是我正在上的大学，我是这个学校的在校学生。关于学校环境的照片，以及学校的标志我都征求了版权所有者（学校）的同意，所以我希望你们可以了解到这个情况。如果关于学校环境的照片您有异议，我可以去现场重新拍摄。但是关于学校的标志文件，我并不清楚如何以正确的方式上传，希望您可以解答，衷心的感谢。 EvanWangROC (talk) 00:59, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

@EvanWangROC 您可以在维基百科或维基共享资源（Wikimedia Commons）上传标志。这是两个不同的项目。上传方式差异如下：

一、版权所有者在维基共享资源发布其机构标志，即同意“任何人以任何方式，使用或修改标志的图片，包括商业用途”。这将会导致机构失去对标志的控制，且不可撤销。因此，以学校为例，在上传后，需要通过校长办公室以电子邮件发送一份授权声明至共享资源的专用邮箱，详见COM:VRT/CONSENT。

二、在中文维基百科以及其它语言的维基百科以合理使用的依据，上传该标志。以中文维基为例：

首先需要将图片总像素数降低至10万以下；然后在首页顶栏点击“工具” --> “上传文件” --> “点此开始上传向导” --> 填写第一、第二步，在第三步选择“这是一个受著作权保护、非自由内容...” --> 填写使用的条目，并勾选“这是组织、公司、品牌等的标志” --> 展开后，填写来源，勾选“该图像将专门用在该实体的条目顶部显示...” --> “说明为何使用这个文件是最小程度的”可以填写为“本标志的尺寸和分辨率既能确保图片品质不至于损害公司或机构的形象，又避免了不必要的过高分辨率” --> 最后点击上传。

感谢留言，敬祝万事如意。 0x0a (talk) 02:21, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

@EvanWangROC 另外，您需要提供File:李順卿中年.jpg的来源网站，以供其他人验证许可证状态的信息。 0x0a (talk) 02:37, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

感谢您的解答，我将会尽快上传另一张图片的来源网站 EvanWangROC (talk) 04:38, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

About mendipite.webp

Hi! I’m not sure how to proceed now, but the permission of the file is shown in the website of the author. Thanks. Yuanga (talk) 09:22, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

@Yuanga OK, I see. The permission is sufficient. I've added this URL in the "permission" parameter. 0x0a (talk) 10:09, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! --Yuanga (talk) 10:50, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
