The OTRS for [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Image%3AKibaticrop.jpg this] was pending, lol. I had permission from the author to use it. Oh well, too late I guess... sorry for any inconveniences or such.

Ashland Academy of Art, Semyon Bilmes images
Hi thank you for watching this page. I have full permission from the Ashland Academy and Semyon Bilmes to use these images. How can I change the copy right or what kind of proof do I need to show? or you mentioned something about an official email?

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Idi Amin.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Idi Amin.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:16, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

French copyright law
Hi. I was wondering if you could look into French copyright law and when images expire Count Blofeld 19:53, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
Yes. The only thing is it seems to state "100 years" on here but "70 years" in the commons. P.S. Ratanakiri Province really is an exemplary piece of work on Cambodia. 111 references for an article on Cambodia is astonishing. When are you going to propose it for an FA? With a little of work I reckon its ready. The main Cambodia article could also do with a lot of work, it isn't really FA class at present although it is listed as one.

UN
Hi. I was wondering if we could claim use of these United Nations images. The images state "copyrighted" but it it well known UNited Nations material is in the public domain with Template:PD-UN? The template asserts that public domain images include "United Nations documents issued with a UN symbol" but most if not all of the images do. Count Blofeld 12:52, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
I thought as much. Shame wikipedia can't sort out more agreements with such organisations. I've negotiated a number of flickr agreements but was rather diappointed by the slow reaction from the commons to welcome them to say the least so these days I can't be bothered with the hassle of trying to prove they are legitimate for use. I'm sure there would be thousands of people or organisations that would be willing to permit the wiki project use of images if they are properly attibuted. Something more upscale needs to be done in this respect as potentially we are missing out on a mass of quality and resourceful images. Count Blofeld 13:10, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
As you seem highly interested in images, perhaps you could upload these free images of Kalaymyo to the commons from here. They are highly valuable images of Burma. Thanks Count Blofeld 20:57, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Did you have any luck? Count Blofeld 22:06, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
No probs. Its a stunning country, like the rest of SE Asia and we need as many images of such places as possible. There is an online Burma library too that has an increasing amount of content but the amount missing on here for Burma is vast. There must be millions of potential articles on Burma and China alone.

Charvet
As a courtesy, I wish to let you know I have partially reverted your edit on Charvet Place Vendôme,modified List of Charvet customers in view of an afd discussion which includes your comment and posted a reply concerning ifd BHLevy.jpg. I hope these edits meet your expectation. As a fellow member of WikiProject Fashion, I also hope this will be the start of a constructive collaboration and look forward to further common improvements. Kindly use the related talk pages if need be. Thank you, Racconish (talk) 13:12, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
Whitman Images
Hi Jen, you deleted my Chiefmiles photo from the Whitman page as a blatant Copy-Vio. I can accept that, if the Houston Chronicle image is also deleted as fair play. Both are newspaper accounts. Thanks!Victor9876 (talk) 18:23, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
The Chiefmiles.jpg is nowhere on the internet and was clipped by the officer who killed Whitman. As a valuable piece of information, could it be linked to as a reference? And if so, how? Harvard eh!? You're now suspect! lol!Victor9876 (talk) 18:37, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
Veritas
How do you deal with the conflicting mottos of Harvard and Wikipedia? If Harvard's is truth, and Wikipedia's is not truth, just open ended verifiability, couldn't that drive you to be another Ted Kazcynski (also a Harvard Graduate)? True, you could become President of the US, or a Nobel Prize winner, but the conflicting pressure you are under here leads back to Ted! lololol!Victor9876 (talk) 19:00, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
Vote for Deletion
Hey, I noticed your vote for deletion on the image at Charles Whitman may have been placed without actually reading the article itself (I can hardly blame you, that large) -- I don't know if it will change your opinion at all, but the newspaper edition pictured is actually part of the article, which discusses how the Chronicle actually re-opened their printing presses to publish that new "mid-day" newspaper addendum. I just thought clarifying that point might help you understand why I think a low-resolution scan of the headline (without any visible article text, making it similar to Image:Deweytruman12.jpg) meets Fair Use criteria. This isn't the following day's newspaper from a random publisher writing about the shooting, it's the local paper that put out a second newspaper that day to update people in the afternoon about what had occured earlier that day. Hope that helps! Sherurcij (speaker for the dead) 17:53, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Reverting to the Half.com pop-up over Amazon - - - Status?
Where do we stand now on the jpg of Half.com that is popped up over Amazon's page? Is the fair use description insufficient, so that the image is slated for deletion? Obviously, it is fair use under US copyright law because it is used to illustrate a point in a scholarly article. Moreover, by presenting the material graphically it provides the user with a much better understanding of what the effect of Half.com's conduct is on Amazon's interest in its webpage. If one went through the four fair use factors of 17 USC 107, and considered the preamble too, any court would have to find the use fair.
The militant guy says US fair use is not enough. Does that mean the image should be deleted? What do you recommend?
(Incidentally, the militant guy is wrong about who owns copyright. The derivative work is the combination of the Amazon ad and the Half.com pop-up. This is an unauthorized derivative work, so Half.com has no copyright interest in it under the US statute. Only Amazon has any interest, and its interest is limited to the remaining (unobscured) Amazon portion of the original Amazon work (the Amazon ad). That isn't much of an interest, seeing as how much Half.com hid the original material. Still, Amazon owns whatever there is that is capable of ownership.)
