File:Bill Murphy at a table read for “Joyce’s Women”.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

Thanks for uploading File:Bill Murphy at a table read for Joyce's Women (2022).jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Bill Murphy at a table read for Joyce's Women (2022).jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Permission
[edit]Hi. A link isn't evidence of permission. See Commons:License_review#Uploaders. You might also consider reading Commons:License laundering (which discusses republishing of images, originally published on one website with one author/licence claim, to another/newer webpage with a different licence claim). You might also want to give Wikipedia:Conflict of interest a glance. Guliolopez (talk) 14:54, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hello. I will review those pages and see if there's any way I can get written permission from the photographer to use the photo here. I don't know Mr. Murphy personally so there shouldn't be any conflict of interest. Darkfall7 (talk) 15:01, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- OK.
- RE: "I don't know [the photographer/rights-holder]". You don't need to know the photographer. But if you don't know that the photographer/rights-holder has released their work to a Commons-compatible licence, then don't assert that they have. Again.
- RE: "shouldn't be any conflict of interest [with the photographer]". I wasn't suggesting that the photographer's interests had the potential to conflict with the goals of Wikimedia or Wikipedia. I had considered (given that you seem to control that website) whether yours might. Editors, who have a connection to a topic, would ideally avoid the temptation to edit articles covering that topic.

- In the interest of not harbouring a copyright violation, I’ve marked the image for deletion until such a time when I can get concrete permission from the photographer Mr. Murray to use a picture.
- RE: “shouldn’t be any conflict of interest [with the photographer]”. I wasn’t talking about the photographer (although I don’t know him either). As stated above I do not know Mr. Murphy or control his website.
- I will try to obtain an email of permission to use one of Mr. Murray’s images as there do not seem to be any definitely free-to-use images on the internet. Would this be sufficient as permission if I was successful? Darkfall7 (talk) 18:42, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
