Replaceable fair use File:JohnJoubert02.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:JohnJoubert02.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 00:59, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Boosey-Shostakovich-ViolinConcertoNo1-cover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Boosey-Shostakovich-ViolinConcertoNo1-cover.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:35, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

WP:FOUR RFC

There are two WP:RFCs at WP:FOUR. The first is to conflate issues so as to keep people from expressing meaningful opinions. The second, by me, is claimed to be less than neutral by proponents of the first. Please look at the second one, which I think is much better.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:43, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Permission to Use Image

Dear Jack

My name is Shermin and I am an assistant producer at Channel News Asia. I am writing to ask for your permission to use this image https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DMarshall.jpg in a web video we are producing. It is a short video introducing a new documentary series on historical artifacts. Please kindly advise if it is possible to include this image in our video. Many thanks, and have a great day!

Warm regards, Lee Shermin Assistant Producer | Channel News Asia | Mediacorp Pte Ltd 63575936 leeshermin@mediacorp.com.sg

(Taking the liberty to reply for the oft-inactive Jack) Wikipedia does not own the picture, so why ask us? ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 11:18, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi, Shermin. I'm afraid I am not in a position to grant you permission to use this photograph as I'm not the copyright holder. The image is being used on Wikipedia under an assertion that such use amounts to "fair use" under US copyright law and thus does not constitute a breach of copyright. The original photograph was larger in size, so to enable it to comply with Wikipedia's non-free content criteria I replaced it with a smaller version of the image. That was my only connection to the image. According to the information on the file description page, the image was obtained from the Singapore Tatler Annual 1989. CNA will either have to track down the copyright owner by consulting that work so that permission can be sought from him or her, or decide whether using the existing image in the web video qualifies as fair use under Singapore copyright law. — Cheers, JackLee talk 04:03, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
