Disputed fair use rationale

I have seen you tagged some album covers for being disputed like this. Could you tell me how to know a disputed one. I'm new to Misplaced Pages so I don't know very much. Thanks in advance--Morning Sunshine (talk) 09:25, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

I tagged alternate covers uploaded by Chikazuku as disputed fair use in compliance with the non-free content criteria, as Misplaced Pages's mission is to produce as much free content and to limit the amount of non-free content used in articles. Alternate covers from Japanese singles and albums are usually used for differing editions, like CD-only editions, CD+DVD editions, etc. My rationale points to these image violating the eight point of this criteria, which reads Contextual significance. Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. In removing these covers, the reader does not lose any essential information, as it's still understood in the text of the article that multiple editions were released. If an alternate cover is subject to critical commentary from secondary reliable sources (for example, the alternate cover of Lady Gaga's The Fame Monster), then it may merit inclusion. But these covers don't have that, and they hardly ever do, which is why I tagged them for deletion. — ξ 22:57, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Request to un-delete images

Hi Xplicit,

Can I please ask you to un-delete the following files :

File:Olivi (1942).jpg File:Baptismal Font in St. Peter, Rome (1915).jpg File:Winter In Piemonte (1960).jpg File:Autoritratto del pittore con la sua famiglia (1939).jpg

Massimo Calabretti, the director & appointed representative of the G. M. Aicardi Foundation (owned by the daughter of the painter) has sent an e-mail to en-permissions through m.calabretti@gm-aicardi.com to give permission for use of all the images listed above. I understand there might be a backlog but we are currently setting up the foundation, the website and wikipedia page for the painter G. M. Aicardi and we have a lot of investors that are waiting for all three to go live so we can start the ball rolling on our project. I do appreciate your help and co-operation on this one.

Once an image is deleted for lacking evidence of permission, I'm not too keen on restoring it until OTRS confirms permission. As an example, an email for evidence of permission for File:Saint Paul's Cathedral 2012.jpg was also sent to en-permissions, but ultimately, the license was not suitable with Misplaced Pages and was deleted. I'm not sure of what the email says exactly, but I prefer to err to the side of caution when it comes to copyright. If the permission checks out, it will be restored on the spot. — ξ 22:57, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

There was a minor issue, which I am not at liberty to discuss, ironically resolved when I saw this note.--SPhilbrick(Talk) 17:41, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale

Hi there! I'm here regarding the files File:Wae Ireoni.jpg, File:BoPeepBoPeepVersionB.jpg, File:YayayaVersionB.jpg, File:YayayaVersionC.jpg, File:T-araRolyPolyVersionB.png, and File:T-araRolyPolyRegular.png. Though I agree with the reasons why they should be deleted, I feel like the limited-edition single covers (E.G. Bo Peep Bo Peep version A and B) should only be removed and that the regular edition covers (File:JapanBoPeep.jpg, YayayaVersionC.jpg, T-araRolyPolyRegular.png) should be kept in the articles because it creates consistency and well, because they're the regular covers; the limited-edition singles are produced in a limited quantity. I've also created the article for the single "Wae Ireoni" which was released before Temptastic but uses the back-cover of the album. Best regards, Chikazuku (talk) 01:29, 10 May 2012 (UTC).

I, too, use the regular edition covers for Japanese releases (like Let It Go! and Neverland (song)). If you'd like, you can just go ahead and remove the limited edition covers from the articles and move the regular edition cover to the lead infobox image. The cover for "왜 이러니" seems fine now, though it should still be removed from Temptastic. — ξ 05:53, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Files for deletion/2012 April 21#File:Frontier Series - .24100_front.jpg

Hello. I urge you to reconsider this close as there is no free equivalent to these files, they are encyclopedic and enhance the article by showing how the bills look like and greatly increase the readers understanding of how the bills resemble. The reason why I provided the article on Australian banknotes was because I am attempting to model this article after that article and people have had no problem with providing a visual representation of the banknotes on that article (since ~2006). Thank you. ----Addihockey10 02:05, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
