Commons:Email templates/Consent/ar

Due to the large number of ambiguous answers to enquiries concerning a permission of reuse for an image, text or similar (such as "I allow Wikipedia to reuse my photos") it is advisable to use a standard declaration of consent in the e-mail, point to it in the email, which can be returned by the author/copyright owner in the email reply. The precedent below should be amended, as necessary, with the required additional information. Note that "WORK" and "LICENSE" should not appear in the emailed reply as they should be replaced by details of the image and license. If the link to the file is not available online, you may upload the file on Commons with the {{OTRS pending}} template and have the author link to it in the declaration of consent. Note that you must change this text in 3 places: A URL to your work (image/sound/video), a license and date and name. Additionally, please include the URL of the image as located on Wikimedia Commons for which you are providing permission in the email.
