This looks like a publicity still, OTRS desirable? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 08:35, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is not an official publicity still. Because of previous ones not being CC Licensed by CBS, her producer took this photo on his cell phone about a half hour before the broadcast yesterday and sent it to me to post under a cc license. Margaret did not like the older photo that was there originally, not the one of her on the phone someone replaced it with.

I work for CBS News. I know I can't upload photos CBS holds a copywrite to, especially after a conversation with User:GRuban last week. I specifically asked her producer to take a still using his cell to avoid using an official CBS owned image.

That would still require OTRS confirmation of the license from the producer who took the photo. -- Whpq (talk) 02:26, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Thomcraver: Instead having the producer send you a photo, you can simply ask them to upload the photo directly to Wikimedia Commons by following c:COM:UL. They will need to register for a Wikipedia or Commons account, but if the producer and Brennan want a photo to use, then that's probably the simplest solution. The producer should just upload the photo's original data file under any of these licenses. Another possibility, but a little more complicated, would be for the producer to upload the file to some website such as Flickr and release it under a free license acceptable for Commons as explained in c:COM:OTRS#When contacting OTRS is unnecessary. You could then download the file and upload it to Commons as explained in c:COM:F. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:33, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Look, Thom. The point we're trying to get across here is that we need an image release from the image owner (which is usually the photographer, unless contract says otherwise). If you're not the image owner, you can't release the picture. If the photographer emailed you the "CC permission", that doesn't help us; it needs to come from the photographer to us. Makes sense? So you need to get the photographer to send that email that he sent you to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. It should say who he is, that he took the picture, it should identify the picture (a link to the picture or a copy would work), and it should identify the specific license for the image (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ is pretty common). That's the "OTRS confirmation" that Whpq is writing about. It should come from an email that the producer will answer, because people from Commons OTRS may write back to double check, and it would be useful if it were a cbsnews.com work email address because that would go some way to proving he is who he says he is. OK? Not rocket science, really. The photographer could also do one of the things that Marchjuly recommends, they would also work. --GRuban (talk) 14:08, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The sarcasm, while understood, is a bit much, isn't it?

Since the the original uploaded photo was removed, I presumed a personal photo taken by a normal person who emailed it to me with permission would be fine. I didn't realize the release was still needed for such a photo. Hence why I instructed him to take a personal photo.

So no: you were perfectly clear on clarifying what resembled a copyrighted image. However, I didn't apply that mentality to a personal cell phone photo. I wonder if the photo wasn't taken on set if the same conversation would have ensued.

Regardless, the picture taker has since emailed permissions-commons [at] wikimedia.org. Hopefully this is all resolved now. My apologies for the misunderstanding with the second image. [[[User:Thomcraver|Thomcraver]] (talk) 18:24, 3 May 2018 (UTC)][reply]

OTRS verified, and I have tagged the image accordingly. I'm sorry this got more complicated than initially expected. Mikael Häggström (talk) 21:11, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File is tagged with ((Non-free promotional)), but right above license there is a statement saying "Below tag is used since one is needed, but there is no evidence that the image is copyrighted. It applies only if there exists a copyright on the image". So, the first question is whether needs to be non-free content. If not, then the license should be updated accordingly and the non-free use rationales replaced with ((Information)) because freely licensed or public domain images do not need to have such rationales. Changing the copyright license from non-free, but leaving the rationales will create a conflict, and possibly cause the file to be tagged with ((wrong license)).

If the file needs to be treated as non-free, then only the non-free use in Canaan Banana for primary identification purposes seems appropriate. Even though the file does have non-free use rationales for each of its use, just having a rationale does not make the particular use policy compliant per WP:JUSTONE. The use of the file in the other two articles (University of Zimbabwe#Notable faculty and former faculty and President of Zimbabwe#Presidents of Zimbabwe (1980–present) is a type of non-free use typically notconsidered acceptable per WP:NFTABLES and WP:NFLISTS because it is decorative and lacking the context required by WP:NFCC#8 and the minimal use required by WP:NFCC#3. Non-free images are pretty much never allowed to illustrate individual table or list entries and a link to the stand-alone article where the file can be seen is considered sufficient per WP:NFCC#1. I don't see how the use in the articles about the office and the university are exceptions to what is commonly allowed in such cases. So, if the file is non-free, then keep in "Canaan Banana", but remove from "University of Zimbabwe" and "President of Zimbabwe". -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
