Wikipedia does not allow email notification of talk page changes. I do not visit here as often as I do Wikibooks. If you have an urgent message, please leave it on my Wikibooks talk page. Thank you.

Blargh, sorry for the misunderstanding

I was referring to myself. I restored, but then realized that the OTRS information was not present . It was incompetent of myself to restore without getting full and proper permission. It's a difficult process to go through, and is quite understandable the user to not include all of the necessary information: the burden falls on myself to make sure it's all there, and in that I failed, and hence I said "Ignore the incompetent OTRS person" referring to my own incompetent actions of restoring, and then realizing permission was not there. Unfortunately this didn't get conveyed this well, and my sarcastic reprimand of myself came off as something else. I admit I am indeed new to the OTRS system, and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. I also apologize for how my comments came off: I simply meant to reprimand myself.

Article OTRS

FYI, when adding permission to articles as opposed to images, we have the {{ConfirmationOTRS}} template which lets us identify the source and the license all in the one box without needing extra text below it. VernoWhitney (talk) 11:24, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. That will be much cleaner to use. Adrignola (talk) 12:50, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Uzerakount OTRS

Hi, thanks for handling the OTRS for File:Emiliavasaryova.jpg. Can you say if the confirmation also works for File:Mgombitova.jpg, from the same uploader? Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:01, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

I cannot. I will send a response back to the uploader asking for a higher resolution copy of the other photo to see if I can address the issue. Adrignola (talk) 17:05, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

PEPID Knowledge Base

It wasn't deleted as copyvio, but as spam - see WP:REFUND#PEPID Knowledge Base. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:21, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Sorry. I didn't make a good note of that. So many tickets... Adrignola (talk) 01:59, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

OTRS

Hi, can you explain what the problem was with this permissions: File:Cerridwen_Fallingstar_photo_by_Susanna_Frohman.jpg? I sent her the text, copied from Wikipedia:Declaration_of_consent_for_all_enquiries, and she did so, and e-mailed it to permissions-enwikimedia.org, and then forwarded me what she had sent, which looked fine. What was the problem? Thanks. Softlavender (talk) 15:12, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

That form is a good one to use, but we need permission from the photographer, not the subject. So we need it from Susanna Frohman and not Cerridwen Fallingstar. Sometimes copyrights are transferred to the subject via contract or a work for hire, but the image page specifically stated that "Susanna Frohman must be attributed as photographer in any use of this image", which makes her the copyright owner and not Cerridwen Fallingstar. P.S. You can sign in with the same username/password at Wikibooks that you use here at Wikipedia if you visit Special:MergeAccount to get your account changed to a global one. – Adrignola talk 15:25, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

I think you have misunderstood. Fallingstar owns the rights to the work, which was a work for hire signed off on by Frohman, but wants to insure, out of courtesy, that Frohman is attributed as the photographer. I myself personally added the text that says "Susanna Frohman must be attributed as photographer in any use of this image". That does not make Frohman the license holder of the photo. It simply is a courtesy insured by the CC-3.0 license, which in all cases specifically states what atttribution is required for re-use. Is that clear? Softlavender (talk) 15:33, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

An odd situation, but okay. I have marked the image as having permission in line with your comments and the receipt of permission from the copyright holder. – Adrignola talk 15:48, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

It's not odd at all, but thanks for approving the ticket. Softlavender (talk) 15:51, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Erie Anime Experience

I want to know why you deleted erie anime experience page, if you don't allow anime convention pages then delete them all not just the ones you dislike. Now I know why the trade school I went to said not to trust anything on this site. You say to keep it neutral, the page was wrote with facts, that can be found on the EAE site as well as animecons.com and many more. I should tell everyone that Wiki is to bias and only allows content that the Admins want/like and heck with everyone else. (Kenshinkyo (talk) 14:04, 7 May 2011 (UTC)).
