User talk:Nbcwd~commonswiki
Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump. |

File:J Devil (Jonathan Davis).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.

I am the administrator of the JDevil Facebook as well as an admin on www.jdevil.com.
This photo was sent to me by Prospect Park, JDevil (Jonathan Davis)'s management firm. It has been used in multiple news articles and websites to promote JDevil as well as MSO (Mitch Schneider Organization) as his official PR photo. MSO PR release on JDevil as well as his label, Dim Mak Records JDevil Biography. What do you need exactly to allow this photo to remain on Wikimedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nbcwd (talk • contribs) 18:08, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
- I'm afraid that won't be possible. Wikimedia Commons only hosts content that anyone can use for any purpose. The terms you quote above are limited to you (sublicensing is prohibited, meaning you can't issue a valid free license as required by Commons' licensing policy) and to a very narrow purpose. —LX (talk, contribs) 19:28, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
- Then what is needed to allow it to remain on wikimedia? Nbcwd 16:40, 21 October 2012 (PT)
- You've already asked that question, and I've already answered it. See above. —LX (talk, contribs) 22:18, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
- You speak to me as if I can read your intentions and as though I know every little licensing/copyright rule within Wikipedia. I have read the Help files and they are quite confusing. I would suggest you treat a person well by helping them rather than down talk them! I would like to request another admin's help since you seem to not be able to help me. - Nbcwd 18:28, 21 October 2012 (PT)
- If you want to ask an admin for help, that's fine by me, but they're going to tell you the same thing I have: This project is about free content, and what you're trying to upload is not free content. —LX (talk, contribs) 22:43, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
File tagging File:Korn, 2013.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Korn, 2013.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. |

- Permission emailed to OTRS on 29 Mar 2013 from Sebastien Paquet. What other permissions do you require? Nbcwd (talk) 12:50, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
- I personally haven't made any additional requests after 27 March. I see that Trijnstel updated the file description on 31 March, adding a notice stating that your e-mail has been received, but that there was some additional checks needed. Since the permissions correspondence is not public, I'm not sure what else is needed. Usually you'd receive an e-mail response if anything else is needed from you. If you didn't, I'd suggest asking Trijnstel about it. Cheers, —LX (talk, contribs) 13:48, 3 April 2013 (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 Nbcwd. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Nbcwd~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

Renamed
[edit]This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)
