Thanks for uploading File:Clay Bennett (cropped).png. 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:Clay Bennett (cropped).png]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

- @Adeletron 3030 :I learned this format from this NBA player's image upload -> File:James Harden.png. Why would that be acceptable but mine are not? BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 17:40, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Couple of things:
- The James Harden pic is sourced to a YouTube video that has a CC license. If you go to the source link, you'll see a line of text that says "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)". As far as I can tell (and you can correct me if I'm wrong, the YouTube videos you've linked to are not Creative Commons videos. Those have standard, non-free copyrights.
- I don't think the Harden pic is acceptable. Although FanDuel releases its content with a CC license, in-game images are from third-party photo agencies, so FanDuel isn't allowed to re-license them.
- I'm guessing this isn't what you wanted to hear. You have to make sure the source has an appropriate license, and then make sure that they're not committing license laundering. Let me know if you have more questions. Adeletron 3030 (talk) 18:02, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Couple of things:
- @Adeletron 3030 I found Sam Tallent's email and James Sexton's email. Can I email them asking for their permission to use the photos? BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 18:00, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- The Sam Tallent image belongs to whoever produces the Honey Dew podcast. When someone takes your picture or video, the rights belong to the person creating the image, not the person in the image. I'm guessing the James Sexton photo is his headshot, so he might own the rights to it (or the photographer, it depends). If he does own the rights and is willing to license it freely, you should ask if you can get a high-res JPEG. Adeletron 3030 (talk) 18:08, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Okay. Getting Honey Dew podcast to reply is probably next to impossible... Probably best I email Sam and James directly asking for their own personal photos, have them use the template text to release the rights, and forward the email to permissions-commons?

- @Adeletron 3030 Last question. Most of these videos have 0 comments. Can I ask in the comment section if it is "Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed)" or something like that? Perhaps I will get a response. BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 18:28, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, I don't think most YouTube channels monitor their comments. It doesn't hurt, though emailing them is probably the better way to go.
- And a lot of Commons users have had success going to people or their management and asking for a license-free image. Thanks for your replies. Adeletron 3030 (talk) 22:06, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for the reply. BeFriendlyGoodSir (talk) 22:09, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
