[edit] Taylor Caldwell
Please don't copy and paste material from other websites. Copyright violations can cause legal problems for Wikipedia. RickK 07:33, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Same message from me, if you keep adding copyrighted material to wikipedia you may be blocked from editing. --nixie 12:30, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Please read my latest discussion entry!! I have FULL PERMISSION from the owner to reproduce this piece from their site and they are fully aware of the ramifications of this. There will be no legal problems - the owner has in effect "given" the article to me to do with as I wish, OK? (And if you don't believe me, please feel free to write to him at "petri.liukkonen@kuusankoski.fi"!!) Jaycey 20/6/05
[edit] Style
Wikipedia style is to format Book Titles like that not look BOOK TITLES. I don't really mind if you put text in the latter format to start with, but please don't revert my corrections. Thanks, Morwen - Talk 10:17, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks - it does look better. (This is the first Wikipedia entry I have made and I'm not aware of the etiquette, apologies.) Jaycey 21/6/05
[edit] Images
Thanks for uploading Image:Taylor2.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images (on my talk page) and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, BrokenSegue 02:53, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks - see my comment on your Talk page Jaycey 22/6/05
- So, sorry somehow I completely forgot to respond to you message. My appologies. Let me see, let me see. If you don't know the source of the image the best you can really do, assuming the image is relatively new, is cite fair use. The image on Taylor Caldwell is probably a copyright violation, especially since we don't know where it came from. The other image seems to be a publicity photo and is on a publishing website, so I'd say it's fair to use fair use there. Generally we like to use as few fairuse pictures as possible, but if you can find no other it is okay. Neither of them, however, can be used on a free license which is greatly prefered. I'll weed around a little and see if I can find some better versions. You might want to read Wikipedia:Copyrights, if you haven't allready, because it gives a nice overview of fairuse and other copyirghts aceptable around here. Cheers!

- Thre is no hard or fast rule. Since the image has been spread around (I think i saw EB using the picture too) then it is easier for you to make a case for fair use. I'd go ahead and mark it as {{fairuse}}. I'm no copyright lawyer so if you want a definitive answer you'd have to go elsewhere. This is good enough, however.

[edit] Image:Jess2.jpg
Jaycey, thanks for the response. Unfortunately all the images on the websites can not be used. They have their copyright restrictions. SO we need to know under which license it is applicable. When we talk about books, it is not necessary that author/publisher permits its content to reproduce. Your mentioned source is not sufficient and read the texts carefully what I have sent you earlier. Please mention the license, like, GFDL, PD, CC and fair use. Please tag the image and read image policy carefully. Regards, Shyam (T/C) 21:01, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- Jaycey, you have good queries. Other websites may not be free but Wikipedia claims it is free encyclopedia. So its most of contents are free. Anybody can use and share information throughout the world by Wikipedia. If a photograph is on some website try to know the license, if a websites mentions its license information. If they do not provide license information and say only, like, "all rights reserved" then please contact website owners/author of the image(if, mentioned on the image) for letting know the license information. If it can be used any one of the above mentioned license, please upload the image. Cheers, Shyam (T/C) 19:52, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for your response. I have looked on the Web and have found the Taylor Caldwell photograph again in the following location:- http://www.doubledarepress.com/2002/02/columns/dead-people.shtml. I have therefore written to the owners of this website and asked them for permission to use this photograph (and if not, why not). As I said, the photograph is an old one - but I'm assuming that they must have got permission themselves at some stage, therefore they should be able to point me in the right direction. Watch this space....! Jaycey 08:59, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Practical Help re Images
I saw your message on the Copyright FAQ page and responded there yesterday, but am cc'ing it here as well --Bookgrrl 03:29, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- I took a look at your Talk page and it looks like several people have pointed you to at least some of the information you need. If you look here you will see an itemized list of what you need to do to get an image accepted. The most important thing is that every image has to have a copyright tag with it. If the owner/creator has given permission, then you'd have to look and see which of the options matches the permissions he has given. In other words, if he's given permission to anyone to use it anytime, you'd use {{CopyrightedFreeUse}} . If he's given permission but with certain restrictions, you'd use {{CopyrightedFreeUseProvidedThat|restrictions}} and specify the restrictions -- e.g. "citation and link to his home page required" or whatever. You might also use a Creative Commons license. Mostly it depends on exactly what permissions the copyright holder has given you, so you'd need to talk with him and figure it out, then use the right tag. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask me on my Talk page also if you have further questions. --Bookgrrl 02:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
