There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Dear T34esq,
We are visual artists and academics who are currently working on a chapter in a book entitled ‘The Photograph and the Album’ (published by MuseumsEtc http://museumsetc.com/blogs/news/7422776-forthcoming-the-photograph-and-the-album). We are also contributing to the editorship of this volume.
Our chapter is examining the role that the internet plays in acting as a 'giant photograph album'. We have taken this principle and have begun to look for images, searching – as many of us do – under our own names, curious to find out what images appear.
The following images came up in relation to one of our surnames:
Carson Circuit bus catches fire on Avalon blvd., Carson CA. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Carson_Circuit_Bus_Fire.jpg
Carson Circuit: Scottsdale Line http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Current_Carson_Circuit_Bus.jpg
We are interested in using one of these images in our chapter and want to confirm that you agree that we can do this in line with the statement that appears in Wikimedia Commons which is as follows:
“This file is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Generic license. You are free:

To be clear about our use of the image, it will appear as part of a sequence of images for which we will provide full captions and acknowledgement (in reference to the information which appears on the webpage provided above).
We hope you are willing to give permission and would appreciate if you would confirm this via this email – j.carson@salford.ac.uk. We would also be very grateful if you could inform us of any other parties from whom we should seek permission in reference to this image, if you are aware of any such parties.
If you are willing to give permission please confirm the text you would like us to present in relation to the images to satisfy the condition of attribution.
We would appreciate it if you could respond by Friday May 3rd 2013.
Thank you for your consideration & please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
Very best regards, Rosie Miller & Jonathan Carson
