  • Oppose. This image is not free for commercial use, I'm afraid. We can't promote it. NauticaShades 08:46, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think what you mean is it wasn't submitted through OTRS. The license on the file is very permissive (and probably legit - uploader's name matches his marketing manager [1]; we could still ask for OTRS confirmation, though). Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 09:30, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • NauticaShades is correct. This licensing is simply not free enough- we would need OTRS permission. I'm tagging the image as lacking permission, if someone wants to follow this up, they can do. J Milburn (talk) 10:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • The copyright holder of this work allows anyone to use it for any purpose including unrestricted redistribution, commercial use, and modification. Doesn't even require attribution, and you're telling me it's "not free enough"? ^^ Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 12:27, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        • No, the problem is that we don't have any evidence that that license applies. If it does, then yes, obviously, it can be considered free. What is said on the source website is very different to that. J Milburn (talk) 13:24, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
          • So it would need to be proven that the uploader AliceCCurtin, is the same person as the contact person AliceCCurtin on the source website. She/he does not seem to be mentioned at the new version of the website (contacts). At the Josh Sundquist facebook site, he has written messages only some hours ago. Maybe someone could ask him there?

  • Support (from copyright owner). Greetings, I am Josh Sundquist, both the subject of this photo and its copyright holder. The photo was taken by Ken Watson. I purchased all rights from him for all uses for all time. I would be honored for it to be used for anything associated with Wikipedia. Please forgive my ignorance, but I am not sure what OTRS is. If someone would like to email me instructions on what I can do to assist in getting this photo approved, please contact me at (email removed, this is not a good idea).
