Request reason:

Okay. I'm giving this another shot. Sorry I don't have a better understand of the wikipedia workflow. Not really finding any answers in the help pages. I requested that the Gjhinc be unblocked. I think it will be done on 2/23. Someone commented on that user page that I can then rename Gjhinc to Gary J Hardy. So what do I do with this user? Thanks. Gary J Hardy (talk) 15:06, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

After discussion on talk pages of both accounts I am satisfied that this user will be a valuable contributor. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:03, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can we please clarify exactly what you are asking? At this moment you have simultaneous unblock requests running on both your accounts, which I suspect has actually happened due to a misunderstanding in communication on one page or the other. Am I right in understanding that this is the account from which you wish to edit? If so we can simply refuse the unblock request on your other page, delete the contents and forget it. You have no significant edits there, I would suggest, which need to be preserved. If this is the case then let us know on this page, and we can then proces the request here in a hopefully less confused way. Perhaps to state the obvious, given that an account itself can never be deleted, there cannot be two accounts both named Gary J Hardy. So renaming the other account to the name of this account does not work.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 16:03, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I really really appreciate your help and correct clarification. And I again apologize for my lack of understanding around wikipedia workflow and protocols. e.g. I'm not even sure you'll see this comment without some kind of markup that I'm unaware of. Bottom line. Yes. Please unblock this page Gary J Hardy (talk) 16:30, 22 February 2013 (UTC) and we/I can simply stop using User:Gjhinc[reply]

Before anyone does, who are the 'we' in 'we/I'? Peridon (talk) 17:44, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I meant you guys, wikipedia admins, and me. Sorry didn't mean to be obtuse. And I do appreciate you guys trying to keep wikipedia on the up-and-up. Thanks. Gary J Hardy (talk) 17:52, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have unblocked you. Please be careful to follow wikipedia policy and guidelines.--Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:04, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:JoeEspositoDOCKINVENICE-600x420.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:JoeEspositoDOCKINVENICE-600x420.jpg, which you've attributed to Joe Esposito. 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 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}} 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. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:18, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File Permissions

[edit]

I'm not sure what I'm missing or specifically need to do with the images that I uploaded for Joe Esposito (artist). I am creating the article with the artist's consent and help. Specifically, I assume I need to (what?) have Joe Esposito send an email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org stating these files are owned by him?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JoeEspositoDOCKINVENICE-600x420.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JoeEspositoCELEBRATION-600x462.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JoeEspositoCARRIAGESINROMEITALY-600x418.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JoeEspositoBlackAndWhite-600x513.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JoeEspositoBELLTOWERVENICEITALY-600x465.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:Joe Esposito painter 1987.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the image description page states the source and copyright status of the derivative work, it only names the creator of the original work without specifying the status of their copyright over the work.

Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the original image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. Thanks again for your cooperation. Dianna (talk) 00:37, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. 99.136.255.134 (talk) 15:12, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
