File permission problem with File:VulcanB2atFilton1960s.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:VulcanB2atFilton1960s.jpg, which you've sourced to http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andy.buckley1/concorde/avrovulcanatfilton196x800.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Ronhjones  (Talk) 00:16, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reply to Ronhjones Ron - Thanks for the post - I hadn't realised sharing my piccie on my website would cause this problem. I've re-read your post and tagged the image file as suggested, but now I come to create the required email I'm wondering whether it would just be easier to let the file go for deletion. I don't really understand the various licences that could be applied and the licence list is just too much for a simple bloke like me to really take in - I just had a photo I'd taken myself, which I thought others might like to see and which seemed relevant to the articles I included it in. Perhaps I should just remove the link/reference to my website (how would I do this?)- would that resolve the problem? Regards, Andy Andywebby (talk) 22:10, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Community rail partnerships at Bedford[edit]

I'm afraid that there are two problems with your addition to Bedford. First, something that "is being set up" cannot be included until it actually happens, see wp:CRYSTAL. Second is that Facebook is not a WP:reliable source and equally falls foul of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC – a policy that exists in essence because it is not possible to tell whether the material is about one persons's idea. So I am reverting your edit for the moment. When the project actually happens and is reported in e.g., Bedford Today, please reinstate (with the third party source). --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 11:37, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK - the BSAC CRP was officially launched on 6th June 2019 and now appears as a CRP on the Thameslink website - so I've used that as a reference link Andywebby (talk) 10:18, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
