If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion.

You have forgotten to add a license template. --Túrelio (talk) 08:24, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Could you tell me Which exact licence template should I add if I'm allowed to post the images.

At last I've got the answer from OTRS (Mehdi) He put this - is it what I should add?: |Permission={{OTRS|2013032510004259}}

watermarks[edit]

Hi Kennguru, we prefer images without watermarks. Anyway, you should be aware that per the CC-BY-SA license anybody is entitled to remove the watermark from the images. --Túrelio (talk) 08:25, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Túrelio - the uploaded photo is a copyright material of Nina Mel, Yoga Teacher and I have full permissions to use her photos. Even the Yoga journal link you mentioned is her paid advertisement and yoga journal doesn't have any copyright of Nina Mel photos. If you need her confirmation, please send her an e-mail to: nina@n-code.ru I confirm that this photo is free to use in Wikipedia.

Could you please^ help me improve the description of photos, as I don't know how to add the copyright tag that meets all wikipedia rules and restrictions. Thank you.

Best regards, Alexey ( Kennguru (talk) 10:25, 20 March 2013 (UTC) )[reply]

Hi Alexey,

if I understand you correctly, you are not the photographer, right? Then, who is the photographer? If these images show Mrs. Nina Mel, as I understand it, then she herself can hardly be the photographer. --Túrelio (talk) 10:47, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Whoever is the photographer or the rights holder, you need to provide his/her written permission to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org (OTRS). See here for the procedure and for a permission-template: Commons:OTRS (or in Russian: Commons:OTRS/ru). Providing the permission is the task of the uploader. --Túrelio (talk) 10:51, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Túrelio I addressed the same question to Mrs. Nina Mel and double checked it with her today again, and she assures me that these exact photos are her own copyright as she made it using tripod at her home yoga-studio at different times. That is why I put watermarks "by Nina Mel" on all the images, but you asked to delete them - so I did it. If you'd like I can forward you the email from Mrs. Mel that I've received today.

Best regards

Don't forward it to me, but to OTRS, see address above. --Túrelio (talk) 12:58, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Thank you.

The Open Letter to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org from the owner of all the listed photos:

File:Ustrasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg File:Bakasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg File:Bhujapidasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg File:Ustrasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg File:Raja-Kapotasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg File:Natarajasana Yoga-Asana Nina-Mel.jpg and others which seemed to be copyrighted, but YogaJournal.ru posted them as a paid advertisement of Nina Mel seminars, and has no rights of these photos as they are made by Nina Mel herself and she has all copyrights.

Please, help - what to put into the description of photo-files so that no suspicions and complaints will take place no more. I'm a knew to wikipedia and want to contribute to wikipedia as best as I can.

Dear Wikimedia Team, I resend you the email, written by Nina Mel:

I hereby affirm that I, (Nina Mel) am the creator and the sole owner of the exclusive copyright of the photos of yoga asanas (I made myself with a tripod) which uploaded by my student (nickname: Kennguru) here: https://toolserver.org/~daniel/WikiSense/Gallery.php?wiki=commons.wikimedia.org&img_user_text=Kennguru

And he will upload more free licensed texts and photos of the correct yoga asanas (postures) to change the existing poses that have lots of rude mistakes, showing unsafe and traumatic postures which may harm practitioners, so that my photos will make Wikipedia a reliable authority on Yoga subject available to everyone.

I agree to publish these works under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license. So that people are free:

PS

More over I don't understand why users who suspect and and complain get more score that those who put good material to Wikipedia?
