[edit]

Low res, no camera EXIF, appear screenshots from YouTube or other videos (e.g., File:Courtney Bowman .png is from ca. 0:27 of this video), which is consistent with other of user's uploads (see deleted version of File:Danielle Steers.jpg, which is from here). COM:OTRS evidence of permission needed, including that sources are not mere license laundering of broadcasts.

Hiya! As you can probably tell I'm quite new to Wikipedia editing! I've read through all of the rules and regulations and I believe the photos you've flagged for deletion shouldn't be deleted. The photos are indeed screenshots, however they're taken from my own personal videos which only one of which is on YouTube as you mentioned (link here), on my personal YouTube channel. I do acknowledge that the poster image I uploaded and the headshot weren’t up to Wikimedia Commons standard and I apologise but then again I'm very new to this. However, these files are my own work. If you could guide me as to how I can prove the work is mine please let me know! Thanks! Sorry for the trouble, I really didn't mean for anything like this to happen, and as you can tell I'm quite new.
Thanks,

The rules and regulations include COM:OTRS referenced above, which indicates "I am the copyright owner but my file has been previously published without a free license on a medium I can't alter" as a condition for which "you must send an email to the OTRS system." As an alternative, as YouTube is a medium you can alter, an option to resolve the issue for File:Courtney Bowman .png would be to select a compatible CC license on that site. Regarding File:Danielle Steers.jpg, you claimed the previous version (which visibly appears to be from the same source video) to be yours, which is a claim contradicted by third party sources. This gives rise to a credibility concern that needs reconciliation. Эlcobbola talk 17:20, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
