Copyright status: File:Fig 1B Entrance from inside.tif
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Fig 1B Entrance from inside.tif. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

No required license templates were detected at this file page. Please correct it, or if you have any questions please check my FAQ or contact me on my talk page. Yours sincerely, Jarekt (talk) 12:21, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hello there Jarekt. The author submitted permission through "OTRS" before I uploaded. Accordingly, I put an OTRS Pending tag on the photos. I think if you check the files you'll see he gave permission and everything is in order. Thanks, Monumenteer2014 (talk) 12:35, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- You still need a license template at the upload time. That requirement has little to do with OTRS requirements, since you need to know if the author released the images under free license or not before the upload. --Jarekt (talk) 12:59, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, ok, comprende, just added the intended license (CC-BY 4.0). Monumenteer2014 (talk) 13:17, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Re:MLK photo
[edit]I just checked original registrations in artwork for 1958. Neither Charles Moore nor The Montgomery Advertiser are listed as filing for a copyright. The newspaper also didn't file for a copyright on its July-December 1958 editions. I would hesitate to use any of the photos which were published in Life because the magazine was very efficient in filing for back issue renewals and they are part of the magazine's editorial content. I will be adding the additional information re: Charles Moore to the file's information. We hope (talk) 17:23, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hmmm, very interesting, We hope. Regarding the 1962 issue of Life: the credits in the front of the magazine do make clear when a photo comes from Black Star. I did confirm that Time renewed the copyright on Life. However, I'm not sure a lack of copyright registration would be damning. This article by an Assistant Professor of Journalism addresses precisely the relationship between Black Star and Life, stating that Black Star hired the photographers on contract and that "Life paid the agency a minimum guarantee of $1,800 for first refusal rights to these exclusive images" (p. 4). This article also seems to suggest pretty strongly that the author and/or Black Star might have kept copyright. And some evidence from the copyright page of a book published later. IMO the evidence seems pretty overwhelming attributing the copyright to "Charles Moore / Black Star" -- and that copyright was never renewed. Thus I'm still thinking a number of images from Moore and probably other Black Star photographers are public domain. Monumenteer2014 (talk) 18:32, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

- Lord have mercy, I'm sorry about that. This flickr tool is very effective but has clearly driven me mad with power. I think I may have annexed some of France for Mississippi also. Monumenteer2014 (talk) 18:36, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

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.

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 has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)
