deleting Image:Seven Sisters Flaming Lotus Girls.jpg

Why did you delete File:Seven Sisters Flaming Lotus Girls.jpg. You say "copyright violation" but it isn't. This was linked to from the wikipedia Flaming Lotus Girls entry.

Hi Gadlen, it comes from http://flickr.com/photos/mills42/314673730/ which is marked all rights reserved. You may be able to upload it as "fair use" on Wikipedia, but all images on Commons are required to be non-fair use, in this kind of circumstance. For us to have it here it needs to be under a "free" license. Thanks! rootology (T) 18:01, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
