Thanks for uploading File:Eddy O'Sullivan.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Eddy O'Sullivan.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Advertisment for Yalda night.jpg
[edit]This file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Advertisment for Yalda night.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |

File:Trauma care advert.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

- This picture is owned by Manchester University Foundation Trust, which is a British public body. I understand that publicly owned images can be reproduced freely. Rathfelder (talk) 19:02, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- I believe Commons only accepts UK government works created prior to 1973, under crown copyright.
- If that's what you're claiming (I'm afraid don't remember how old this aerial photograph was), you should use the {{PD-UKGov}} template when uploading an image, rather than describing the image as being licenced as Creative Commons Attribution. Belbury (talk) 14:54, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Punch cartoons
[edit]Why have you removed a number of Punch magazine cartoons, such as File:George Lorraine Stampa - Cricket... - circa 1930.jpg, from Category:Punch magazine cartoons? This does not seem correct. Please restore them. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:49, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- i have made categories for punch cartoons for each year. There are thousands of them. Rathfelder (talk) 13:50, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- You have made a bunch of categories like Category:Punch, 1930, but they don't appear to be for cartoons. There is more to Punch than just cartoons, and I would expect to find images of adverts, PDFs of text articles, and whole issues or volumes, in categories named in that manner.
- Category:Punch, 1930 is not categorised in (though, oddly, it is in Category:1930 caricatures of the United Kingdom).
- This is not good. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:47, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- I didnt create most of them. I only added a few missing years. But they mostly contain nothing but caricatures. Its generally acceptable to run categories like that, where the vast majority of the contents are properly categorised. Category:Punch magazine cartoons only had a minority of the files, of which there are several thousand, and they clearly needed further categorisation. By year seemed the obvious way. Do you have a better suggestion? I dont understand that you are saying about Category:Punch, 1930 Rathfelder (talk) 21:57, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
