Replaceable fair use File:The Portrait of Bernard Cheong.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:The Portrait of Bernard Cheong.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. January (talk) 19:45, 22 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

"object of commentary" edit

I read

Uploading a non-free work, as object of commentary using File Upload Wizard

However, you provide no commentary at all on any of these photos.

Please compare File:Lunch-atop-a-skyscraper-c1932.jpg, the object of commentary within the article Lunch atop a Skyscraper. -- Hoary (talk) 23:51, 22 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

impending deletions edit

I've nominated File:Bernard Cheong Event 1.jpg and File:The Bernard Cheong Portrait.jpg for speedy deletion. (Actually I could have simply deleted them, but I thought I'd leave them for at least a few minutes.) Neither qualifies as fair use. For each, you claim that

The article as a whole is dedicated specifically to a discussion of this work.

Not only is the article as a whole not dedicated specifically to a discussion of either photo, neither photo is even referred to in passing. If you'd like to see what "dedicated specifically to a discussion of this work" is about, please read the section immediately above, about "object of commentary", which I had posted here before you again uploaded these files. -- Hoary (talk) 12:53, 28 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi Horay,

uploading pictures, seem too much selection, am worry my friend Bernard Cheong pictures/photo is been downloaded and misuse can you at least guide me how to do it or what to write when uploading. posted at 11:52, 5 March 2015‎ by Zane Loke

There are strict requirements for "fair use". Here, these requirements are not met. So you cannot upload the photographs to Wikipedia.
If Bernard Cheong is your friend, it should be easy for you to take a photo of him. Having taken a photo of him, you can release this work of yours via a suitable Creative Commons license and upload it to Wikimedia Commons. And then you can add this photo to an article about him. On how to add it to Wikimedia Commons: First_steps, 入門須知, or 初步教程. (Each of these links to alternative explanations in other languages.)
However, if Bernard Cheong is your friend, then please read Conflict of interest, 利益衝突, or one of the alternative explanations in other languages. -- Hoary (talk) 00:42, 18 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
