File permission problem with File:Dead Exit Press Shot.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Dead Exit Press Shot.jpg, which you've attributed to http://bassexplorer.com/. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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}} 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. Eeekster (talk) 22:21, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Iamsammyporter. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Sammy Porter, you may have a conflict of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 22:37, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Pic you uploaded

Hello! Just wanted to drop you a note amidst all the automated messages above, regarding the picture you uploaded, and just now uploaded the full version. The thing is, even though you say you took the pic, since you named it as being from a copyrighted web site, we need some additional verification that the copyright owner (you) really are who you say you are. This is for yours and our legal protection (to prevent someone from stealing your image and saying they own it, for example, we would need proof from them too).

For privacy reasons, that proof would not be done here. Rather, you should email permissions-en@wikimedia.org, referencing the picture's name here, and they will take it from there.

The other thing to be aware of when uploading pictures here, is that by doing so, you are effectively licensing anyone, anywhere, to use that pic for any purpose, as long as they credit the source. This includes using for financial gain if they wanted to. All they have to do to comply with the license is list a url back to wikipedia. I imagine a lot of people who upload works like the one you did, are not aware of this. If you're not comfortable licensing the work that way, reply here and I can tell you how to have it removed. If you are ok with that license, then proceed with emailing the above address, and once they get it all sorted, then all the alarm tags and whatnot will be removed from the image and it will be good to go.

Please reply here if you have any questions on this! Electric Wombat (talk) 22:48, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
