Help me!

Please help me with... publishing Hi there,

I'm trying to understand what requirements I need to meet as a first time publisher on wikipedia. I have subscribed today and created a draft, but not sure where to go from there to get it published after being approved by the community.

Thanks in advance M

Hi! I added an draft banner at the top of your draft article. When you think it meets the criteria for inclusion, click on the "submit draft for review" button. I encourage you to read the advice found here: Wikipedia:Your first article. Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 16:12, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Jens Larssen.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Jens Larssen.jpg, which you've attributed to Jens Larssen. 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 are the copyright holder for 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 in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:21, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

Deletion pending for File:Jens Larssen.jpg

Hello, Mirko.obkircher. Some time ago, a file you uploaded — File:Jens Larssen.jpg — was tagged with {{OTRS received}}, indicating that a statement of permission had been received by permissions-enwikimedia.org, but that this email was insufficient in some way

This could be due to any of several issues:

1. The OTRS agent might have asked for further information to validate the ticket, but no follow-up reply was received (this is the most common reason).
2. The license submitted might not have provided an acceptable free content license. (Statements of permission that allow only usage on Wikipedia or only non-commercial usage are NOT sufficient.)
3. The person who submitted the statement of permission might not be the copyright holder or might not have been able to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the OTRS agent that they own the copyright.

Due to privacy reasons, we cannot comment on Wikipedia with the exact reason that the ticket could not be processed.

• If YOU submitted the ticket to the permissions address, please search your email for a reply with the ticket ID - a reply was sent some time ago requesting more information or further actions needed to confirm permission. Please reply to that message.

• If the copyright holder (not you) submitted the ticket, then that person received a response (which may have been some time ago). Please ask them to follow up.

If another message is sent to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.

• If you have already sent this message, it is possible that there was a problem receiving it. Please re-send it to permissions-enwikimedia.org that resolves the problem, please let us know at the OTRS noticeboard that you have done so.

If we don't hear from you within one week, the file will be deleted. If we can help you, please feel free to ask at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. B (talk) 21:40, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
