The picture at Image:Jerry abramson.jpg is not from the mayor's office, and is released under a free (Creative Commons) license. If you are with the mayor's office, I can help you release a photograph of Abramson under the Creative Commons license, but the version you've uploaded at Image:Jerryabramson.jpg has no licensing information and will be deleted soon. Wikipedia images need to be either fair use (with rationales) or under a free license, see Wikipedia:Copyrights. This would probably be easier to explain over the phone, if you like I can give you a call or give you my number (assuming you're with the office or otherwise have authority to release the image). --W.marsh 02:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Jerrry e abramson mayor.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Jerrry e abramson mayor.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 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:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 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 uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hekerui (talk) 14:17, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
