Releasing a Copyright picture under CCSA 4.0

Hello @Gråbergs Gråa Sång sir, If a copyright photo have to be released under creative commons share alike 4.0 then what should the owner of photo mail to the Wikipedia team. You also told me about the format but now I didn’t found our that conversation on talk page. TheSlumPanda (talk) 09:51, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

For several ways a photographer/copyright holder can use, see WP:A picture of you (it doesn't have to be "of you"). For example, websites like [1][2] include the license clearly by the picture. This website [3] states "All Content by Tasnim News Agency is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License." at the bottom of the page. Pics licensed like these can then be uploaded on Commons by anybody.

Commons-specific, see Commons:Volunteer Response Team. There is a tool there, the Interactive Release Generator, that copyright holders can use to mail Commons. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:04, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

It means sir if a picture on website shows that the photo is under CC SA 4.O then can we use it on Wikipedia without their permission TheSlumPanda (talk) 11:04, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

See Commons:Licensing#Well-known_licenses. CC BY-SA is one of the "good" ones, like in the Tasnim News Agency. Pics licensed like these can then be uploaded on Commons by anybody. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:20, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Sir i have updated the photo of Jai Pal Singh article because the previous one uploaded by me was copyrighted and now i found some photos of him under CC SA 4.0 that why I uploaded this new pic from this official site 1 which states the photo as CCSA 4.0. And i have also nominated my previous photo because that is not used currently on any other page. TheSlumPanda (talk) 11:48, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Question from HarryPogger (21:31, 25 December 2024)

Hello! I just want to ask, ow do you create a citation? --HarryPogger (talk) 21:31, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

Question from HarryPogger (23:00, 27 December 2024)

Hi Grabergs Graa Sang,

I hope you’re doing well! I was wondering if you could take a moment to review a Wiki page I just edited. I value your feedback and would appreciate any suggestions or thoughts you might have.

Thank you so much for your help!

Best, HarryPogger PS: The page is the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information. --HarryPogger (talk) 23:00, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

@HarryPogger Assuming your coords are correct, your edits are fine. I made this [4] edit, it's unnecessary to repeat a wikilink in the infobox (WP:DUPLINK), but it's fine to have it there once.

That said, it's an awful article as written, so if you can make it better per WP:NORG and WP:GNG, please do. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 23:16, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

How do you add photos to the article because I want to add evidence of my findings --Mosena07 (talk) 18:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

@Mosena07 On starting a new WP-article, take the time to read WP:YFA. On images: the basic rule of thumb is that any random image you find online can't be used on WP because copyright. More at Wikipedia:Image use policy and Help:Pictures. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:04, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

New draft

Hi Gråbergs Gråa Sång. I've just seen your post at the Teahouse about us sometimes starting new articles. I'm currently nearing the completion of Draft:Temujin Kensu, which arose in a similar way. I think it is going to be more controversial than many others when I do the DYK and I'd appreciate it if you could take a look and improve it if you can: WP:BLP and WP:DUE are obvious concerns. Suggestions for the "hook" also welcome. Thanks. Mike Turnbull (talk) 14:06, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

I think I saw a Teahouse comment on that one?

I read through the draft, impressive. Atm I have 2 points: I'm sensitive to WP:BLPNAME, and wonder if Merrill and Woodworth should be mentioned by name, though I don't know if they're actually alive. I noted that Joplin is dead. And, I reacted to "hypnotized", but I can't find that in ref given. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:46, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Ping @Michael D. Turnbull Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:47, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

No need to ping: I'm subscribed! Thanks for spotting that I'd used the wrong cite for the hypnosis. The problem with writing this is that there were too many sources! The hypnosis stuff is extensively discussed in some of the podcasts as it is frowned upon these days. I'll maybe add another cite for that. Good point on Merrill and Woodworth but their names are extensively used in reliable sources, even to the point where they could reach WP:GNG. I'll leave this for now and see if anyone else spots this when I move to mainspace (probably later today, although I'm short of "Early life" and "Personal life" sections which I'm tackling by contacting the IP by her published email address). Mike Turnbull (talk) 15:34, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Wide use of names in sources of course matters. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:38, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

You might want Category:People convicted of murder by Michigan when you're in mainspace. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:56, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Yes, I saw that and used one of the people in that category to see how to do the infobox. Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:15, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Looking at the draft now I've done the lead, I think the lead is too long. I'm about to move to mainspace: maybe you could trim it there, please, as you'll have a better view of what is and isn't important? Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:23, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

It's long yes. It's also not that easy to see "not that relevant" stuff. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 18:20, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

And yes, what kind of question is that? I want to slap him on the head and say "Mind your manners!" But it's the internet, what can you do. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:58, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Oh I know! Why ask it? Perhaps he is too and is feeling a little intimidated. The vast majority of WP editors are way to the other side and often write accordingly, so it can be a bit overwhelming at first. They are well read in Ehrman and little else. Mostly they are willing to treat me with some respect anyway - though there are articles I have learned the hard way not to touch. Who knows what his issue is. He probably doesn't know WP manners yet. Jenhawk777 (talk) 22:29, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Question from Channel Change (05:26, 27 January 2025)

How do i create a new page? --Channel Change (talk) 05:26, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

@Channel Change Hello! Making an acceptable WP-article without knowing how to edit WP is hard. A common advice is to "just" edit for a while first, to try to get a hang of this place.

That said, your first hurdle is "Can a WP-article about your chosen subject be written at all?" Start with reading WP:BACKWARD. If you conclude "Yeah, I have those sources, no problem!", move on to WP:YFA. If your choice of topic fails WP:N, the article will not be accepted. If you decide to go ahead, you need to learn how to add references correctly, WP:TUTORIAL can help with that. This is crucial, and I can't stress that enough. If you intend to write about a living person, read WP:BLP. If you intend to write about yourself (WP:COI), the short advice is "don't."

As an example, when I start drafting an article, I begin something like this: [23]. Get the sources in there, then re-read them, then start adding text, citing as you go along. Hope this helps some. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 06:25, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

Johnlock

I was checking for other drafts before starting my own and stumbled on you mentioning that you might want to write an article for the Sherlock ship. It seems clearly notable and I've got a very rough draft brewing at User:Rusalkii/Johnlock, figured I'd drop you a note in case you were still interested in working on it. Rusalkii (talk) 04:28, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

@Rusalkii Thanks for letting me know (and for the diligence: Talk:Reggie_Montgomery#The_merge_that_just_happened).

I remember stumbling on it in this book: [6]. The chapter is "The Gay Elephant Meta in the Room : Sherlock and the Johnlock Conspiracy" p82-94 and I can see parts of it in that link, maybe you can tease more out of it. It's on JSTOR, [7] but afaict, not "our" part of it. Here's another potential source:[8]. Ping @Computer-ergonomics, you might be interested in this draft.

Interesting, like Larries, this seems to be another LGBT young women fandom conspiracy theory. Is that "WP-worthy" topic in itself? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:57, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

The conspiracy seems notable (most of my academic sources deal with it) but I think it's best written as a section of the main article - any TJLC article would need to explain what Johnlock is anyway, and any Johnlock article would need to explain what this whole conspiracy thing was, and I'd sooner avoid the redundancy. Unless you meant whether "young women fandom conspiracies" are notable as a collective rather than individually? Hmm. I dunno that I've seen any sources talking about them as a general phenomenon, but it'd be an interesting article if they did exist.

Thanks for the sources, looking now... Rusalkii (talk) 19:42, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

@Rusalkii I absolutely didn't mean that Johnlock and TJLC should be separate articles. Johnlock seems to meet GNG without problems, the academic sources are a joy to behold. When I nominated my Shakespeare and Star Trek for DYK the reviewer said "Though the subject seems odd, it does appear to have got a lot of coverage in books and TV, and therefore is notable." which I thought of as high praise. I'm looking forward to see how the article will mention toplock and bottomlock. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 22:42, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

I haven't found any sources discussing that so far! Even a direct search just now hasn't pulled anything up. Academic interest seems very heavily focused on the queerbaiting/queercoding/TJLC + fandom close-reading angle. Rusalkii (talk) 23:10, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

@Rusalkii I thought I had seen a WP-good source on that, but I can't find it atm. I might have thought of this [9], but the transcript doesn't work. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 23:35, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
