File permission problem with File:IIT Bombay Official Logo.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:IIT Bombay Official Logo.png. 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. Muhandes (talk) 10:51, 21 July 2017 (UTC) Thank you, Sir. The Image is made using the Logo, which is already in Wikimedia Commons, and the CC Licensed font, using a software called "LibreImpress" which is also open source. The image does not have a particular owner, and is freely shared across multiple platforms. Uploading it to Wikimedia Commons helps index the image. I am going to add the non-free fair use tag, but that's all I can do at the moment. If you could guide me further, that would be great. Thank you.JOEL REGO (talk) 14:43, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

FREE ART LICENSE (FAL) applies here. Also, copyleft, I think. I have added the tag. Thank youJOEL REGO (talk) 15:03, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Can you please show where on commons it exists? It should not be there. --Muhandes (talk) 16:02, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I just found out after your comment that the original logo is in 'NFC' Non-Free Use. Big Mistake! I think I should delete the image, but I don't know how? Please guide!JOEL REGO (talk) 16:11, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

No problem, it will be deleted upon your request. I added the required template on the image and an administrator will handle it. Best regards. --Muhandes (talk) 16:14, 21 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

No need to delete. I changed the license now. The image apparently hits all criteria of Non-Free Use. Do check it again and see if there is any problem.

Orphaned non-free image File:PresidencyUniversityLogo.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:PresidencyUniversityLogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 12:15, 30 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
