Reply[edit]
As you may know Wikimedia Commons has incredibly strict guidelines about copyright, and, without proof of a free license, images will be deleted.
Before I go into how you can prevent your images being uploaded in future, I have a quick reply. I did not ask for fither permission as you had already been given seven days since the above message to provide proof. Now, here are the instructions to provide proof that that copyright holder permits use under a free license
- Upload the image under a free license with the code
{{OTRS pending}}
somewhere on the image - Email permissions-commons@wikimedia.org with proof of release under the license stated on the image page
You are done. If you do this the image will not be deleted.
Thanks,
