It is extremely hard to know how to upload images. It is both extremely hard practically and also just theorietically.
I have asked, and have, the permission by the creators of this image to use it. They are more than happy I add it to the site. I am just tearing my hair out at the moment to know how any image ever gets here. I undertand all the copyright rules etc but in good faith I ask for permission, the publisher sends me a work with permission, I upload it, and it gets speedy delete. Whats up there? What am I doing wrong?
I had the same thing at
Citroen C1 ev'ie I got a picture courtesy of the publishers. The worst claim would be primary source but simply removing it-- especially after I have been in touch it the publishers and got pics from them-- does not smack of good faith to me. In fact it makes me want to give up editing here. I hope you can restore my good faith. SimonTrew (talk) 00:47, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

- Unfortuantely Wikipedia does not accept permission for use only for non-profit use. The only permission accepted is permission for use by anyone for anything, including commercial use. Assertion of permission for non-commercial or educational use or for use only on Wikipedia is itself grounds for speedy deletion.
- Fortunately Wikipedia does, however, accept certain images without permission. Use of such images must conform to US non-free content policy. One class of images which can be used this way is logos for use in info boxes.
- Non-free images must be tagged with a non-free copyright tag (like {{non-free use rationalefor each use. I have provided such for this logo.
- You should fill in the source parameter of my rationale. —]
