File tagging File:Scribe an Octagon.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Scribe an Octagon.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). 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:Scribe an Octagon.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

- Thank you for the info. I started the article around 2004 along with the Steel Square. I am the author of all the drawings many of which have been deleted. The verification on my point that Speed Square angles and real angles using a protractor can be instantly verified. I do not need Bob Vila to verify this. However, I will try to upload some comparative angular drawings. I think that the instruments verify this is objective and are not my opinion. Uploading used to be much simpler is 2004. I have been reluctant due to how complicated this process has become.
