==Best Use of one's time==
Hi LGA - I've actually enjoyed our discussion re deleting the portrait of Quaytman. I'm fairly unfamiliar with the image policies, and now understand the frustration shared by many veteran editors. US Law really does permit much much more use of copyright materials than Wikimedia has proposed. Their intention seems to be to steer well clear of any potential controversy, which does sound like a good strategy in the early development of an underfunded group. It's up to individuals to enforce, just like the US jury system - which actually entitles individual juries to tell the law to go to hell. Our situation is a judgement call - there are thousands of examples that have gone unnoticed with no impact - so I won't discuss it here. I'm not sure how new of an editor you are, but when I started, I also focused on following policy and finding minor infractions to correct. It was a good way to learn. Now I regret many of the AfDs I launched, like [[Ambulance_(Blur_song)]] which was ratified, then I decided to not implement! (I was MJH). Since that time I have found it much more gratifying to create new articles, or substantially improve them - actually adding to the resource. There are plenty of cops walking the beat, so I have abandoned that, except in the case of vandalism, or well intentioned people damaging articles with a [[WP:POV]]. You seem like an intelligent person, so I ask the rhetorical question - what's the best use of your time?--<span style="border:2px solid gray;margin-top:2px;bottom:0px;font-family:Lucida Console;background:white">[[User:Nixie9|<

:: Sorry that is not the case, in the US (where the wikipedia servers are located) the logo is not covered by copyright as the US has a higher standard of [[Threshold of originality|originality]] than other countries (and probably the United Kingdom) see [[WP:PD#Fonts]], so the logo is free to use. [[User:LightGreenApple|<
::: Sorry, this is not a font or logo with unknown copyright status whose "threshold of originality" needs to be ascertained. The HA logo is ''expressly'' covered by Crown Copyright, being a work of Her Majesty's Government. It is published on US-based Wikipedia in compliace with international treaties related to copyright. "''Anything published in other countries and copyrighted there, is typically also copyrighted in the United States''" ([[WP:Non-free content#In general]]). <span style="font-family:'Candara',sans-serif;font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;text-shadow:#AAAAFF 0.2em 0.2em 0.1em;class:texhtml">[[User:Kashmiri|<

I have taged the file with {{tlx|Wrong-license}}. [[User:LightGreenApple|<
::::: Your argument would be valid with logos/images whose copyright stems from the "threshold of originality" concept. The HA logo has nothing to do with "threshold of originality" - in the UK, US or elsewhere. Rather, its protection stems from the fact that this is work of the UK Government. In other words, even if it were a single letter, it would receive cover of the Crown Copyright. If you are still not convinced, I don't actually mind asking for opinion of other editors. <span style="font-family:'Candara',sans-serif;font-weight:bold;font-style:italic;text-shadow:#AAAAFF 0.2em 0.2em 0.1em;class:texhtml">[[User:Kashmiri|<
:::::: I see nothing that allows for Crown Copyright to extend to the US, copyright in the US is governed by US law, and a court would be bound by the prior ruling not to grant the United Kingdom government protection where no such protection would exist if the same works were created by a US citizen. Feel free to ask away. [[User:LightGreenApple|<

Are you sure about the idea of transferring this to Commons? I ask because while I do understand the bit about "consists of typefaces, individual words, slogans, or simple geometric shapes", that doesn't mean that the logo is not subject to copyright. It seems to me the legal issues around this are not entirely clear. Anyway, I just thought I'd mention that.

:: It has nothing to do with "censorship" and the accusation of "censorship" can been seen as offensive, you should not make it.
:: In this case the image you uploaded was not yours, you had a print of a photograph than was sent to your mother presumably in December 1937, however the copyright to the original photograph still belongs to either the person who took it (or their descendants) or more likely the descendants of the Princess (it being a work for hire) that copyright will likely not expire until about 70 years after the photographers death (or maybe longer).

If you do I will remove it again and add over 40 references from the three match reports included in every match.

Given the language in di-missing-permission: "Unless a link to a webpage with an explicit permission is provided, or an email from the copyright owner is sent or forwarded to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, the image will be deleted after (date)", and that the uploader did comply with the OTRS sending, I think it's appropriate to remove this tag. Yes, OTRS may find the permission insufficient or the like, at which point deletion may occur, but given how slow OTRS has been working compared to the 7 day deletion images here, I don't believe we need to wait for OTRS affirmation before removing the missing-permission tag, especially working on good faith. --[[User:Masem|M<

== Regarding evidence of permission ==
Sir, you have reported that file : Ali_Arshad_Mir.jpg has been missing evidence of permission. An email regarding the permission has been already sent to wikipedia (permissions-en@wikimedia.org) by the copyright owner(me) itself , mentioning and allowing the use of the file.
Can I request you not to delete the file , because i do not find any lack of evidence, the file has been first time released on the internet(not on any other website or blog) and this is one of very few photos that we have for our hon'able father (older times there used to be less cameras in our country), the photo here is original work and has given the right information regarding the photographer as well as the owner both being the same in this case). I would be highly thankful to you if i am able to meet upto the level of copyright procedure of wikipedia and this file is allowed on website,however it will be very disappointing if the file is deleted.
Thank you sir. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Knowledgefanno1|Knowledgefanno1]] ([[User talk:Knowledgefanno1|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Knowledgefanno1|contribs]]) 06:50, 15 March 2014 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Just a heads up that you are getting dangerously close to [[WP:3RR]] for changing the image on the article. Please don't edit-war over something that can and should be discussed on the article's talk page. If you continue to revert, you may be blocked for your actions. -- '''''[[User:TLSuda|<span style="color:#886699">TLSuda]]'''''</span> ([[User talk:TLSuda|talk]]) 21:40, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
: I am not edit warring, I am fully aware of [[WP:3RR]], as you can see {{diff2|600123015|this edit}} and from the edit sums I have been communicating my issue and indeed my last edit made just the point that the change needs to be discussed on the article's talk page. <span style="font-family:Lucida Sans;">'''[[User:LGA|<span style="color:#90EE90;">LGA</span>]] [[User talk:LGA|<sub style="color:#8B0000;">talk</sub>]]'''<sup style="margin-left:-4ex">[[Special:Contributions/LGA|<span style="color:#006400;">edits</span>]]</sup></span> 21:55, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

{{collapse top|[[WP:DENY|Deny]] the sock}}
LGA, I have no idea who this "drsjpdc" is that the editors "Brangifer" and WikiDan" are so out to get, that they are apparently running around deleting everything he ever did, regardless of the quality of the work, or the relevance of it to the reasons he was banned or how notable the subject; just because he was banned. And, frankly it seems so beyond the pale, that it appears to me at least to be some kind of rather vicious vendetta, where they are prepared to deprive a distinguished musician like Mr. Leeds, and others of bios, just to punish this Chiropractor they don't like. I did a little investigation, and discovered that these guys have a history of putting negative stuff in the subjects about Chiropractors. Drsjpdc apparently pissed them off when he wrote good stuff about that profession generally, and they called it "self promotion". So, if I write general stuff about jazz, is that self promotion? When you look at the discussion board for their banning of him, it is based on his allegedly coming back to merely write in his own field, after four years exile and because he forgot to ask community permission to so so. There is no indication that he wrote anything about himself. Only about Chiropractic generally. Apparently the first time he was community banned, it was brought by these two instigators, and Jimmy Wales himself had to get him un-banned, the banning was so gangland style, and so, at least that my take on this. I know it will take some time, but I ask you to do your own objective investigation. It just seems so very unfair, at least to me. I have BTW: been writing on another wiki for some time, but just decided to come to fight this for my innocent friend Steve Leeds. Maybe I'll start writing about Chirorpactors?

Hello LGA. I have noticed that you have removed several images on the aforementioned page. All of the images are licensed correctly and pertain to the topic at hand and the sections where they reside. So I am declining your deletions. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:KobieTale|KobieTale]] ([[User talk:KobieTale|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/KobieTale|contribs]]) 12:30, 26 May 2014 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
== Asking for time ==
Hello LGA. I added ten small images this weekend, which you tagged for deletion with the standard six day window. [[User_talk:Jax_MN|They are listed here.]]
I see you do an enormous amount of editing, and seem to often provide helpful dialog, and not just bite the newbies. Where I am somewhat new at all this is with images. I've made many responsible, NPV text improvements myself, without complaint by anyone. Yet my efforts to add images got walloped within minutes of my posting. Why? --It seems my copyright tag hasn't yet followed up with a release from the original image author.
My request is this. I need more time to get these releases. I'm dealing with non-lawyers, who don't understand it's no big deal to release a 20k JPG for public use, when they already freely sent me that same image for Wikipedia usage WITHOUT the release. I have to explain this, and get their attention, and this is with people who have day jobs, busy families, and little time to deal with this kind of thing.
To support this request, these images are not going to be controversial. Rather, when I finally do get the attention of the copyright owners who sent me the files, those image owners will be ''pleased'' that their small photos are used in my article listing the fraternity chapter buildings where they will be among a representative sampling for visual interest. As the holder of one of these images myself, which I just released to Wikipedia in small format, by design, I uploaded some very small, non-commercially viable versions of these files, so I cannot imagine anyone will object to their use. Several are already used on website pages for each individual fraternity chapter, or have been published in the fraternity's magazine. Perhaps citing this would allow usage? I await your advice. But again, if pressed to contact the owners for permission I need time to work this out, and six days is too short. Is there a tag I can insert, to ask the very zealous copyright editors to back off for a month or two? Regards, [[User:Jax MN|Jax MN]] ([[User talk:Jax MN|talk]]) 02:08, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
: Sorry but there is not much can be done to delay the process, however once you have got the owners to send the e-mails to OTRS if you come back here (or go to the OTRS notice board) then they can very easily be un-deleted if the permissions checkout. <span style="font-family:Lucida Sans;">'''[[User:LGA|<span style="color:#90EE90;">LGA</span>]] [[User talk:LGA|<sub style="color:#8B0000;">talk</sub>]]'''<sup style="margin-left:-4ex">[[Special:Contributions/LGA|<span style="color:#006400;">edits</span>]]</sup></span> 02:17, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
:: For these images, I see that a single release is acceptable (two for text). For simple, non-commercially viable photos like mine, which is suggested, GFDL or CC-by-sa-3.0? Also, the executive director of my organization is willing to grant such licenses, as they have published these photos previously. Can he do a blanket release for a set of these? Or must he write a specific response e-mail for each one? [[User:Jax MN|Jax MN]] ([[User talk:Jax MN|talk]]) 15:03, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

==University of Waterloo Stratford Campus==
LGA, I noticed that you have removed images that were on the page that were correctly licensed. In one case you replaced an image on the exterior of the campus with the seal of the University of Waterloo; something that in not acceptable because the University of Waterloo is a completely separate entity that the University of Waterloo Stratford Campus. It would be akin to using the UCLA logo on a page for the University of California Northridge. For that reason, I will be replacing the seal that you placed on the page with a licensed image. Thank you. [[User:Stuartzs|Stuartzs]] ([[User talk:Stuartzs|talk]]) 21:31, 16 June 2014 (UTC)
::: LGA, I am growing increasingly frustrated by your repeated allegations on my talk page which incidentally are untrue - and I am actually considering discontinuing my wikipedia contributions because of this. Your attacks against me border on harassment and I believe constitute bad faith. I have addressed my concerns about all this with your higher ups. I will not go into the details specifically on your talk page because I do not believe this is the right forum. I will address the specific matters concerning the U of W Stratford page on my talk page.[[User:Stuartzs|Stuartzs]] ([[User talk:Stuartzs|talk]]) 12:11, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
