Thanks for uploading File:Folkvett 2016 3-4.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you. |

- Very well... I took the photo, the work is mine. As free a licence as possible is no problem. So, what do I write where? Please? - I went through the uploading process and am quite sure I gave all the info required, yet I still run into this crap. You sure aren't very good at making this accessible for occasional users. Hexmaster (talk) 13:38, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
- The photo you refer to is on the cover of a publication. Those things are not normally freely licensed and content on their website is copyright. The crappy instructions on what to do are clearly detailed above. Secondarywaltz (talk) 15:01, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
- I am an editor of the said publication and it is not copyrighted. Hexmaster (talk) 20:17, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
- Prove it by sending written permission by email, as instructed above. Secondarywaltz (talk) 20:23, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
