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:Ryugu-at-night-a-cauliflower-rock-with-bright-minerals.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

Actual copyright is here: https://www.legacysurvey.org/acknowledgment/, a creative commons licence, which includes DECaPS. Meli thev (talk) 17:12, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I only saw your reply after an admin had already deleted the image; you are right, but in this case you should not claim the image as your own and state that you are releasing it under creative commons; instead, link the permission in the "permission" field, state the actual author in the appropriate field, and select the correct licence. Cheers, Andel (talk) 19:46, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I have corrected the description of File:Sh2-24_legacy_dr10.jpg as an example. Please correct the descriptions for your other uploads, otherwise you run the risk of them being deleted due to the incorrect information. Cheers Andel (talk) 19:59, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

But they are my own in a sense. I create them using the FITS-files and don't just copy the image. When you click on the image in legacy viewer, you can click on cutout (FITS). I then edit the link with e.g. &width=1500&height=1500 to get the correct size, extract the images with SAO Image DS9 and create the final image with Photoshop Elements, including giving the image a final touch. I just link to legacy surveys image and not directly to the FITS-cutouts link because it would link to a pop-up download-window and it would be hard for other people to find the image in legacy viewer. I have seen others use such links on wikimedia and I find such links directly to a pop-up download-windows deeply annoying. I don't think erasing my contribution is ok here. I am sometimes working for hours on one image :/ If you have a recommendation to make this more clear in the files and maybe know a bot that can edit hundreds of wikimedia files, then that would be helpful. I never used bots on wikipedia by the way, but maybe this would help me.

For images where I actually use the image from legacy surveys, I already do state legacy surveys as the author: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SDSS_J0057%2B0120.jpg Meli thev (talk) 11:27, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
