Unlikely to be own work: small resolutions, missing EXIF.

Keep for now. ~~File:Trude Sojka.jpg~~ [ File:Foto Trude Sojka joven.jpg ] was nominated for deletion earlier and kept. At that time it did not appear elsewhere on the internet. Given the subject's history it is unlikely anyone other than a family member m or museum worker (and those sets overlap) would have had access to that photo. A photo of that age can hardly be expected to have exif. It is likely that we are dealing with a copyright holder or representative of the copyright holder. I will make an attempt to contact the museum. Dankarl (talk) 19:05, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Since user:Gabfons1995 has responded here, however cryptically, I will let him or her speak for him- or herself. Gabfons1995, some explanation would be helpful. If it does not appear I will assume your uploads were unauthorized. If you need help please ask. If you have filed OTRS notification please indicate that here and on the image pages. Thanks, Dankarl (talk) 20:06, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry I couldn't answer you before. Well, I am Trude Sojka's grand-daughter, from Ecuador. My mother, Anita Steinitz and I are the owners of all her pictures. We decided to publish them when we found out that many people have been surprised there is no article in Wikipedia concerning the Czech painter and sculptor Trude Sojka, a well-known artist in Quito, Ecuador, who died in 2007 and had her house turned into a museum. These pictures are very old; all of them are scanned (except for File:Biblioteca Hans Steinitz.JPG, which I took myself in the museum). That's why, as User:Dankarl said, their resolution is poor, they don't have EXIF, and I have no idea how to put it. Please, tell me what to do in order to keep these photos in Wikipedia. I appreciate your help.

Okay, here is a start. Go to Commons:OTRS, read the instructions there, and follow them. Basically what it says is that we need a traceable email that gives permission for these images to be here and indicates that you are the copyright holder and understand the license you are granting. Probably best if it comes from the Museum email address, and has your Mom's name as well as your username. It is very important that you understand the permission that you are granting. It is irrevocable. You are not just putting them on Wikipedia you are letting users download them and use them, including possibly commercial use and derivative works. There are several CC licenses you can choose from but they all allow at least this much. Read about them and think carefully which you want. You still have the moral rights and personality rights to prevent disparging use, though that may be hard to enforce. If you decide you have uploaded more pictures than you want to leave here, mark the rest for speedy deletion-uploader request.

Then go through and identify the photographers on each photo, with dates if possible. Mark each (except the one you took) OTRS Pending (I think there is a template for this) and copy the explanation you gave here. With any luck that will keep them up until the OTRS email arrives and goes through review. Should that not work and some images are deleted, you can get them undeleted after the OTRS review. Also, if you can put a link to the commons images on the Museum website that will be further proof it's ok; not required but it helps. Sorry this is so complicated but the procedure exists to protect the artist or rights-holder and also the user who downloads and uses the image in good faith.

Thanks for donating these. You have a remarkable story to tell and I look forward to reading it. Dankarl (talk) 02:11, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
