Files of User:MicroX

[edit]

I have misinterpreted the Commons policy on "own work". These files do not belong to me and its copyright holder has not released them into the public domain. --MicroX (talk) 23:56, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]


[Copied from my talk page:]

Hi,I uploaded some images that do not belong to me a while back. I nominated them for deletion in September but no action was taken. These images are not mine nor am I the copyright holder. --MicroX (talk) 00:12, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but I am skeptical -- please tell me the whole story -- where you got them, whose they are, etc.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 12:09, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

These images were taken by a relative of mine. He occasionally e-mails me these photographs. I uploaded them thinking I was the owner since they were on my computer but I asked at the here about this situation and they said that if I didn't get my relative's permission, then they couldn't be on the Commons. --MicroX (talk) 18:10, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the explanation. The instructions you cite above are correct. Since these are in wide use, is it possible that your relative would give permission? If so, please follow the instructions at Commons:OTRS and we'll put a hold on this. If not, we will have to delete them.      Jim . . . .

How much time do I have? --MicroX (talk) 02:46, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you say that you believe that your relative will give OTRS consent, we'll wait a week or two -- remember that even if they get deleted, we can always undelete them when permission comes -- we save everything, "deleted" just means it is no longer available for public use.      Jim . . . .
