Hi. Could you add copyright tags to the images you uploaded (Image:Sterappel dwarsdrsn.jpg)? For now I have tagged your images as "Unknown". If there are no tags, the images may have to be deleted. It is also necessary to link all your images to a Commons page or to add them to category pages. Thanks. villy 20:13, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
regarding Image:Eichenprozessionsspinner meyers 1888.jpg: please alwys copy all imformation about an image when you copy it to the commons. Local copies of images may be deleted and thus information obout the source etc. may be lost. Also, regarding this specific image, you used the wrong license: images from Mayers are PD, you can not make them GFDL (which would not make sense anyway as the original author is unknown). -- Duesentrieb 15:57, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
About Image:MetaseqLeaves.jpg: please note that the GFDL requires the author of the image to be mentioned - please provide that info. A link to the wiki you copied the image from is not sufficient, because the image may get deleted there. -- Duesentrieb10:16, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
dito: please compare Image:Maybug.jpg - you allways have to provide a link to the autor and to copy the history if you´re uploading images from other users:
copy full original german info text, translate it if you want
link the german user page of the photographer with [[:de:Benutzer:XYZ|XYZ]]
copy the history: e.g. first upload at de.wikipedia 22:06, 7. Mai 2004
Hi Rasbak, under untagged images there are around 15 untagged photos of yours. Could you please go there and apply the license {{GFDK}}, please, and the other information. Greetings, Longbow4u18:24, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
my name is Ulf Dahl and I work for the east-german newspaper called "Freie Presse".
I urgently need a teff-gras picture which you gave to wikimedia.
I like to download it and print it on a page we call "Ratgeber" which givwes advises to our readers- sorry my english ist very bad!
Is it allowed to use the picture ?
Please answer soon, because we need it within the next days.
Hello, and thank you for uploading your files to Wikimedia Commons. There seems to be some license information
missing regarding this particular file, however. Could you please fix this?

Are you sure that house mouse in the photo (at the heading of the Russian-language article) is a house mouse or a white-footed mouse? It looks a bit more like a white-foot or perhaps a deer mouse to me. But then I'm not quite a mouse expert. ;)
The photo was taken in the Netherlands where no white-footed mouse or deere mouse lives. Yes it is a hous mouse.Rasbak11:00, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dag Rasbak, zou je in het vervolg afbeeldingen die je onder een foute naam hebt geüpload willen voorzien van het sjabloon {{badname|naam van het goede bestand.xxx}} ipv deze op Commons:Verwijderverzoeken te zetten? Deze pagina is er alleen voor "ingewikkelde" verwijderverzoeken. Door plaatsing van het sjabloon komt de afbeelding in een categorie gezet die door moderatoren wordt nagelopen. Alvast bedankt! Groet, NielsF20:38, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Rasbak/Archive 1, thank you for moving images from the German Wikipedia to Commons. Please remeber that there are some rules which have to be observed. If the needed information is not present on Commons the image can not be deleted in the German Wikipedia.
In general, be careful to preserve all of the information available about the image, always copy the image description and state who created the image. The [1] will create a full summary that you can copy and paste into the Commons upload page. Please review the created summary and correct manually if necessary.

Dear Rasbak, thank you so for classifying my unknown flowers. I'm really very glad about your help. But I'll load them up under the genus name as soon as I know it. If you like to help me, add those "right names" to the description, maybe too the categories, and I'll upload it again with all informations I got. :o) --Wildfeuer20:20, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Rasbak, thank you for classifying Sonchus oleraceus. I uploaded it again under this name. May I ask you for more help? here are all my pictures of those plants I’m not able to classify myself. I asked Franz Xaver for help, because I didn’t know another one who could do this. But he is very very busy everywhere. So, would you like to help us classifying those plants? I would be very pleased about this. Greetings from Germany --Wildfeuer22:46, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I will do my best. But classifying from photo without description is often difficult.~~
And I will do my best describing my unknown plants in english. This is pretty difficult to me. I'll try next days. (Where’s my dictionary?!) Please excuse me, if I'm accidentally impolite talking to you.
Thank you very much. The next problem: I will not use a ShareAlike license. Could you consider granting me the right to publish this picture in my thesis under CC-BY-NC OR change the license tag to a non-ShareAlice license? That would be great. --Lode (Messages) 08:31, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hoi Rasbak, could you please adapt the licenses when you upload images by other users? "self" is wrong then as you, being the new uploader, have not made the images by yourself. Also a link to the author's user page is always recommended. See [2] for what has to be changed. Hope this helps :-) --Überraschungsbilder09:03, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not complaining per se, but can you let me know what you intend by putting a context-free link on the image page under licensing that points to the wikilink page for Corylus avellana? Wouldn't it be a better idea to simply link to my images in the Corylus avellana page and be done with it? I'd understand it if you added a Category tag to the image, but I don't understand the isolated link text. Can you explain? I'll not do anything about those links for now, but would appreciate you cleaning it up if that's not what you intended.
I am sorry to upset you. That was sure not my intention. I put the link to the Corylus avellana page and put the pictures in the gallery, because then you can linked to all the pictures of Corylus avellana in commons with the tag {{commons|Corylus avellana}} or {{commonscat|Corylus avellana}}. For instance see the bottom line of the Dutch page of nl:Corylus avellana.Rasbak16:53, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, thanks for categorising my two wild rice images. I know we're supposed to add our images to categories, so that other people can find them, but it was very late in my time zone, and I wasn't sure where to look for appropriate categories, so I just added the image to the wild rice article at en, intending to come back later and find categories. I've now added one of the images to the article at fr as well. Thanks for saving me a bit of extra work. ElinorD21:43, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rasbak, please give me at least half a day to put my fresh uploaded images to the right places. It's very confusing when you put them to galleries (and there to wrong places) while I'm working on them! Thanks. Ies08:15, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Dag Rasbak, je maakt mooie foto's en detailopnames van molens, ik geniet er van, terwijl ik de categorisering van molends bijwerk. Wil je de foto's in Category:Windmills in Gelderland nakijken, of je nog categoriewijzigingen of toevoegingen wenst? In principe gaat een foto alleen in een subcategorie, niet in de bovenliggende categorie. Wat vind je ervan, je fotoseries van molens in en bij Ede ook onder de category:mill work te plaatsen omdat ze er dan opvallender als serie detailfoto's uitspringen. Ook andere categoriesuggesties zijn welkom. Groeten Havang12:14, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wissinks Möl ligt in Overijssel. Verder vind ik het een prima idee om de series in de categorie mill work te plaatsen eventueel onderverdeeld naar type molen, zoals standerdmolen, bovenkruier, poldermolen, oliemolen, watermolen.Rasbak17:15, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ik kan die nadere indeling in molentype niet maken, maar als jij die mogelijkheid wel hebt, prima. Naast de fysieke categorieen:windmolen, watermolen, tredmolen, wind generator zijn er de toepassingscategorieen: meelmolen, oliemolen, zaagmolen, pulp en papiermolen. Dat zijn dan wel parallelle categorieën, die niet naar land hoeven te worden uitgesplitst (behalve als ze nog niet in een andere categorie naar land zijn ingedeeld), lijkt me, maar wel opgenomen moeten worden in de hoofdcategorie category:mills. Overigens ligt er nog een klus m.b.t. Category:Wind park, category:wind generatorscategorie:windturbines, dat zijn er ook al zo'n 400 die ingedeeld zouden kunnen worden naar land; maar na een week categoriseren wil ik eventjes weer andere dingen doen. Het was wel leerzaam en met die foto's erbij leuk om te doen. Ik zal voortaan af en toe naar de molencategorieën kijken. Ken je de category-tree? Bekijk die maar eens.Groeten Havang19:19, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Dag Rasbak, inderdaad, mill work was niet zo'n fraaie benaming. Een betere was al windmill parts, ik heb mill work en windmill parts nu vervangen door één category:Mill parts (alle items zijn ook onder windmolen dus daar is geen onduidelijkheid over en bijv molenstenen zitten ook in watermolens) en die categorie geplaatst onder Category:Molinology en onder Category:Equipment. Jouw molenfoto's kunnen straks dan vanuit drie category-trees gevonden worden. Ik heb een verzoek: als er meer dan 3 à 5 foto's van één molen zijn, kun je die molen het beste een eigen [[:categorie:Template:Plaatsnaam, Template:Molennaam]] geven en dan die categorie (maar niet tevens de individuele fotos) onderbrengen in hogere categorieën. Kijk bijv. bij Category:Lienden, molen de Zwaan. Er zijn enige onderdelen waar de molen niet bij genoemd is; het zou leuk zijn om daar de naam van de molen nog bij te hebben. Groeten, Havang14:06, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate that you're trying to make images more legible, but your changes to Image:Cannon Beach 02.jpg and Image:USS Hornet (CV-12) stern.JPG, for example, did not make those look better so I have reverted to the originals. Your edits altered the images' color balance, removed much of the tonal range, and made the pixellation more obvious. Simply boosting the contrast or brightness of an image, instead of adjusting the levels, throws all of the image's other qualities off in this manner. Postdlf14:33, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Rasbak,
I am writing to ask about the use of an image of yours from Wikimedia. I am working for a non-commercial biodiversity group “Biochange” in Ireland, making a web-based identification key of the plants of West Ireland. We would like to have images of plants next to their text descriptions.
I wanted to use some of your images from Wikimedia (Humulus lupulus female inflorescence, Panistaca sativa flowering plant and Rorippa microphylla inflorescence and leaves). These are accompanied by a GNU licence. In this licence it states that any “derivatives to be available under the same license”. Our identification key will be freely available for the public to use, however for various reasons I am unable to release it under a Creative Commons / GNU licence. Would you be able to grant me permission to use this image in the identification key nonetheless? (I would of course attribute it appropriately and the GNU licence would accompany the picture).
It would be very valuable for us if I could use these images as they are of plants I have not yet been able to find to photograph.

If you created this image, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue.
In all cases, please do not take the deletion request personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!
Hi, ik zie nu pas dat je nederlands bent.. Ik haal sjabloon weg voor je. Zou je de volgende keer even {{OTRS-pending}} erop willen zetten. Dan weet je gelijk zeker dat hij niet genomineerd word. Groetjes, Sterkebaktalk18:14, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
your picture of a governor seems to be the only one depicting a windmill governor. Have you got a date of installation for the governor? I am asking this, because it would be nice to actually have a picture of a pre-steam-engine/pre-James-Watt governor for the governor article. Thanks for your help. --DrJunge (talk) 08:34, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This one is from 1912 but I have read somewhere that in an english museum it was stated that the first governor way before the steam-engine was found in a windmill. Unfortunately I don't know anymore which museum it was.Rasbak (talk) 15:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Sometimes the category disappear during uploading. I assume this is an error in the software. By the way I find the uploading sheet very unfriendly specially when I have to upload more images. Rasbak (talk) 07:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Hotelschakeling.png. 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 files listed below, which you uploaded, have been tagged {{OTRS pending}} for more than 30 days. This tag indicates that an email setting out permission to use the file was sent to the OTRS team. Unfortunately, we cannot find any record that such an email has been received, and accordingly the file remains without permission. Unless the OTRS team receives evidence that permission has been granted within 15 days of today's date, the file will be deleted. If you have already sent the permission, please re-send it to "permissions-commonswikimedia.org" now. Please quote the file name in your email. At the same time, please leave a message at the OTRS noticeboard so that a volunteer can follow this up. Alternatively, you can contact an OTRS volunteer directly.

Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.
The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.
Hello Rasbak, you have many nice pictures. But your «Rosse woelmuis Myodes glareolus.jpg» is belonging somewhere else, this must be from the Muridae family and certainly not a Myodes. I think this is a Apodemus, probably Apodemus sylvaticus as flavicollis is not common found in the Netherlands.

Wikimedia Commons does not accept fair use content.
We do this because Commons is a shared media repository. Downstream wikis have different policies based on local laws. Uses that are acceptable under US law, for example, may not be acceptable in many other countries with more restrictive rules.
In addition, fair use is not compatible with our aim as a collection of freely distributable media files.
Therefore, Commons cannot legally rely on fair use provisions.
Non-free content that may be used with reference to fair use may be uploaded locally if your project allows this.
My name is Rita. I work in Câmara Municipal de Lisboa, that is a Public Organism in Portugal.
Actually, we are working on a road book of Biodiversity of Lisbon, for which we are going to produce a panel and a brochure. We found your photos on Wikimedia Commons and liked specially one of them very much, so we would like to know if you could allow us to use your photos, for free, to publish on this project, knowing that the brochure of will be for free distribution to everyone.
The photos we would like to use, for free, are the following:
If you provide us these photos, we will refer your name in the bibliografy, just like we do with the other photographers and we need to know if Rasbak its the name you want we refer on the route bibliography?
If you could, please respond to: rita.neves@cm-lisboa.pt

Beste Rasbak,
Ik zie dat je een Nederlandse versie van Hominin_species.png hebt aangemaakt.

Is this file your own work? Are you the photographer/author of this file? If yes, please insert {{Own}} as source instead of "Rasbak (talk) 15:37, 5 September 2011 (UTC)". This is essential for keeping this image on Commons because this shows explicitly that this photograph is your own work.
I don't understand the problem. When I use the uploader it insert Own work (bron) and Rasbak (Auteur). I have this done for thousands of photographs and never got complains.Rasbak (talk) 13:28, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! I needed some photos for a book that I'm doing at the work, and I chose on of yours (this one). It could be possible to know your real name to put it in the attributions' page?

I’ve contributed images to Wikipedia for over seven years now (including several POTD and Featured Images) and I designed the WikiSpecies logo. I respect your work here and the CC-BY-SA license we all labor under.
I know commercializing Wikipedia work is tricky and so I’ve taken great pains to follow your CC-BY-SA license requirements. I also plan to donate 10% of my proceeds to the Wikimedia Foundation directly. This is the very first self-published e-book created with Apple’s new tools and sold in the store.
If I did alter your work -- such as cutting out an insect part or adding a video sound track -- I shared a Share Alike version of the new media in a DRM-free format and listed the web address in the credits section.
Thank you very much for uploading your work to Wikipedia and releasing it for the world to use in enriching educational formats.

Hi! Long time ago you uploaded the following photos:
As far as I can see, this plant is Myrrhis odorata, not Anthriscus cerefolium. The fruits are too big and to strongly ribbed for Anthriscus. Although having been uploaded at different times, I suppose all four photos belong to the same plant. Unfortunately these photos are widely used in many wikipedias to illustrate the wrong plant.

Some of these sculptures are located in countries that recognize “freedom of panorama” for sculptures, while others are not. Currently, U.S. copyright law does not recognize freedom of panorama for works of art, such as sculptures, and thus the copyright holder of a sculpture has the right to exclude others from publishing images of that sculpture, so long as it still enjoys copyright protection. While it is true that some of the sculptures in question here are located in countries whose copyright regime conflicts with the U.S’s regime, current U.S. conflict of law principles indicate that U.S. copyright law would apply in evaluating the scope of a copyright holder’s rights.
WMF strongly supports a change in U.S. copyright law that would extend freedom of panorama to artwork so that more people can experience beautiful and thought-provoking works of art that they would not otherwise be able to enjoy. However, WMF is a U.S.-based organization that must comply with U.S. laws as they presently exist, including U.S. copyright law, conflict of law principles, and the DMCA.
If you want to express your support for the extension of freedom of panorama to works of art (and you are a resident of the United States), you can write your U.S. senators and/or representative.
If you feel that this particular image does not infringe the alleged copyright holder’s rights, you can contest the takedown notice by submitting a “counter-notice” to us. Before doing so, you should understand your legal position and you may wish to consult with an attorney. If you submit a counter-notice, the alleged copyright holder can stop us from restoring the content by suing you. Please note that WMF will not be a party to any legal action that arises from you sending a counter-notice, and that WMF is unable to provide you with legal advice.
More information on DMCA compliance may also be found at:
If you choose to submit a counter-notice, you must send a letter to legal@wikimedia.org asking WMF to restore this image. The letter must comply with DMCA standards and must contain the following:
A link to where the content was before we took it down;
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that you believe the content was taken down mistakenly;
Your name, address, and phone number;
If your address is in the United States, a statement that says “I consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court in the district where my address is located, and I will accept service of process from the person who complained about the content I posted”; or if your address is outside the United States, a statement that says “I agree to accept service of process in any jurisdiction where I can be found”; and finally,
Your physical or electronic signature.
Pursuant to the DMCA, WMF must inform the alleged copyright holder that you sent us a counter-notice and give the alleged copyright holder a copy of the counter-notice. We will restore this image within ten (10) to fourteen (14) business days, provided that the alleged copyright holder does not give notice of suit to restrain re-posting of the material.

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.

Thanks for uploading File:Molen Sint Jan mengketel.jpg. 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 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.
If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.
Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Ik zou graag te toestemming hebben om gebruik te maken van je foto van de oliekelder van molen 'De Passiebloem' in een artikel dat ik in de nabije toekomst hoop te publiceren en dat deel uit zal maken van mijn proefschrift. Het gaat om deze foto <https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Passiebloem_(molen)#/media/File:Molen_De_Passiebloem_oliekelder.jpg>
Mocht je inderdaad akkoord gaan, zou je me dat dan per mail willen bevestigen?

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.
You created the Commons category Bromopsis erecta. But the Commons category Bromus erectus already exists. Would it not be better to make the category Bromopsis erecta a redirect to the category Bromus erectus, so that all images are shown together?

Thanks for uploading File:WikipediaParamotor.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:WikipediaParamotor.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.
When uploading files taken from somewhere else, please always add {{Licensereview}}, otherwise we have to delete the files if the source changes the license or is no more available. --Didym (talk) 22:29, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have just come across a few images you have recently uploaded from Flickr. I would appreciate it if in the future, you used the Flickr2Commons tool. This tool allows images to be moved to Commons from Flickr without having to download the images to your own computer. It also brings in the largest resolution of the image, as well making sure to list the correct license and url, making it easy for the automated Flickr Review system. Also, it is fairly easy to categorize images with this tool. Elisfkc (talk) 20:17, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
