[edit] Reply to image question

Images that permit only non-commercial use are not permitted on Wikipedia. Wikipedia:Image use policy says, "Images which are listed as for non-commercial use only, by permission, or which restrict derivatives are unsuitable for Wikipedia and will be deleted on sight. Such images still have restricted rights, which goes against the GFDL, under which all content on Wikipedia is licensed." If the author only granted permission for the image to be used in a "non-commercial" setting or said "Wikipedia can use the image", that permission is incompatible with Wikipedia's requirements. In order for Wikipedia to use an image, it has to be available under a "free" license like the GFDL. Please see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for a sample letter to use to ask for permission. --BigDT 19:05, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:20030826-NMR.Night-Christopher.McGuire.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:20030826-NMR.Night-Christopher.McGuire.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:00, 30 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 02:00, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
