File:Beyonce Knowles with necklaces.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added may soon be deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please replace the copyvio tag with {{subst:OP}} and have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you disagree that the file is a copyright violation for any other reason, please replace the copyvio tag with a regular deletion request. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Hi Mmxx, I posted the photograph "Beyonce Knowles with necklaces" which you deleted as a possible copyright violation, linking to a page on the Time Magazine website. The photographer, Tony Duran (you can see his credit on the Time Magazine page), has assigned the copyright in the photograph to Beyonce, Inc. (a company controlled by Beyonce Knowles). I work for Beyonce, Inc. as outside counsel. Beyonce, Inc. has authorized me to upload the photograph to Wikimedia Commons. I can get a pdf copy of the assignment from Mr. Duran to Beyonce, Inc., and I can get an email from Beyonce, Inc. permitting me to upload the photo and authorizing a (Wikimedia Commons accepted) Creative Commons license for the photo. Can you please let me know how this photo can be undeleted (or re-posted) so that it will not be deleted again? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you for your assistance.--Gsshatan (talk) 00:43, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Dear user, please verify your claim by sending the permissions to OTRS (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org) using an official email address, the permissions must clearly state that the file is free and can be used by anyone, anytime and for any purpose, for more information please see Commons:Email templates, Commons:Licensing and Commons:OTRS, thank you. ■ MMXX talk 01:51, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for your advice. I have now forwarded a permission to OTRS using the recommended template and requested undeletion of the photograph at Commons:Undeletion. I hope that this will resolve the issue. Gsshatan (talk) 17:21, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- It is OK now, thank you for your contribution. ■ MMXX talk 22:55, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you! The photo is now in place on the Beyonce Knowles biography page. Gsshatan (talk) 04:29, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Gsshatan. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Gsshatan~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
