:::Hi James, I can't undelete the picture, I'm just a "normal" user, but I will right now inform the administrator, who deleted it on my request, on his talk page and ask what should be done in this case (see [[user talk:INeverCry#Help needed: User wants a photo, you deleted on my request, to be undeleted. What to do?|here]]). I don't know about the best way to handle an undeletion request, since I have never been in this situation before. If you provided a legitimate permission by Danfung Dennis, an undeletion should be possible.

:::I came across your uploads, as the newspaper picture with your Jerry Hall drawing (which looks like a photo, quite impressive, I also especially admire the horse drawing) lay in the category of images related to the Rolling Stones and I sometimes add Rolling Stones pictures to this category (and later Wikipedia articles). I had a closer look, also on the other pictures by this uploader (you), and decided for a deletion request in the two cases because of the given reasons.

:::I saw, you also have a Flickr account, so you might find the following an interesting option for future uploads to Wikimedia: Often I browse Flickr for good photos for Wiki. If I find an adequate one, I ask the Flickr user, if he/she would publish it under a free Commons license. It's easier and faster to upload an image from Flickr to Wikimedia Commons than to do it via OTRS permission. Therefor you have to change the owner settings for the respective picture in your Flickr account (option "edit" under "owner settings" in the right column next to the picture on Flickr). Choose the Attribution Share Alike license from the appearing menu. When doing it this way, no additional written permission to OTRS is needed, for only you, the owner of the account, can do this licensing of your Flickr images, nobody else, so it's obvious you agree with the given license and according usage by other people. When uploading it to Wikimedia Commons afterwards, choose the "it is a work from Flickr" option.

:::BUT, to not harm any copyrights in doing it via Flickr: You have to be the only copyright holder, meaning this procedure is only legitimate for your own work - photos you took yourself, that don't show the work of other copyright holders. So this would for example be applicable, if you took a picture/scanned in one of your drawings and uploaded it to Flickr. But it would not be the right way for photos by other people (like Danfung Dennis), even if you included them in your Flickr photo stream and the copyright holder agreed to that. Wiki doesn't know, what the copyright holder said to you about licensing, the correct way in such a case would still be the OTRS permission. --[[User:Miss-Sophie|Miss-Sophie]] ([[User talk:Miss-Sophie#top|talk]]) 16:37, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
