Permission
[edit]Hi, Please see COM:OTRS for the instructions. I'd rather like to discuss on wiki, unless there is a privacy issue. Regards, Yann (talk) 06:26, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- Yann: Thanks. Are you an OTRS volunteer ?--Let There Be Sunshine (talk) 08:05, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- Yes. Regards, Yann (talk) 08:24, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- Yann, I have received permission to use images from three websites. It's not that formal, can I send a copy of that to you ? Could you check that if that will be enough or I need to request again more formally. Let There Be Sunshine (talk) 14:11, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- Please send the permission to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. Please see the instructions on COM:OTRS. Regards, Yann (talk) 14:14, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- Yann: Got that. But the thing is no license is specified in it. It simply says creative commons license. Should I move with it ? Also how can it be sent, I mean copying an email. Screenshot be enough ? Sorry for troubling you, I really need some advice here. Let There Be Sunshine (talk) 14:24, 27 July 2018 (UTC)
- I am not sure that "Creative Commons license" is enough, as there are some CC licenses which forbid commercial uses, and these are not accepted here. The copyright holder has to send the permission themselves, we don't accept forwarded emails, because of many abuses. See the link I gave you above. The easiest is to use [1].

Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2017 is open!
[edit]You are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2017 Picture of the Year contest, but not yet in R2.
Dear Let There Be Sunshine,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2017 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the twelfth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2017) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1475 candidate images. There are 58 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top 2 from each sub-category.
In the final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2017.
Round 2 will end on 22 July 2018, 23:59 UTC.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee 11:33, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

File tagging File:Lena at IIFA Utsavam 2016.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Lena at IIFA Utsavam 2016.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:Lena at IIFA Utsavam 2016.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |
