Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

The original block was givne without a single human warning or even an explanation from the blocking administrator. That coupled with the fact that LeoGard seems to understand what he did was wrong now adds even greater weight to an unblock.

Someone else can make a final decision on this (I'm inclined to agree), but please understand the issue:
One of Wikipedia's missions is to produce content that can be reproduced without substantial copyright restrictions. Thus, Wikipedia does NOT accept images licensed only for use on Wikipedia or licensed for non-commercial use. In order for an image to be uploaded here, the copyright holder - in other words, the person or company who took the photo - needs to explicitly license the image under the GFDL or a compatible license. The GFDL allows anyone to use the image for any purpose, provided that their use of the photo is also licensed under the GFDL. If these websites get their photos from somewhere else, then they may not have the authority to grant that license. If they own the content and are willing to grant this license, please see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for forwarding a letter of permission to Wikimedia. That permission needs to be on file otherwise someone looking at it has no way of knowing it was ever granted.
Please read and let that sink in, talk with the copyright holder, see if they are willing to grant the images under the GFDL, and forward that letter on to the address in there. Until that happens, please don't upload any more of the images. We would absolutely LOVE to have the photos, but it is important that they meet our licensing needs - Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others. Once you have read all of this, please post here that you agree not to upload any more of the images, and I'm inclined to agree with the unblock. --B 03:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As you seem to have good article contributions, I'm willing to unblock you on 1 condition - Don't upload any images that cannot be proven to be public domain for at least a month, to give you time to review Wikipedia's image policies and rules. Other than that, no images. Mr.Z-man 05:18, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to How to Train Your Dragon (film), but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. — dαlus Contribs 05:46, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Let's see here,

[edit]

The info you added was not only a large amount of OR, but a huge copyvio from the movie's own website, directly after you were unblocked for copyvio vios.

We do not take kindly to copyvios here. I have already reported you, if that report is declined, I will take this to ANI. Either way, don't do it again.— dαlus Contribs 05:49, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Third warning, this is the level you deserve, given that you were originally blocked for copyright problems, and then promised not to violate copyright again, only to then violate it not soon after. The text you insist on adding is lifted directly from the official website. Stop adding it.— dαlus Contribs 05:53, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, as you stopped adding it, I see no reason to report you to ANI. That aside, however, do not mark edits that add large amounts of text as minor. The minor tag is only for minor changes, such as typo fixing.— dαlus Contribs 06:13, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]


As a further note, I am marking my own report to AIV as stale, considering you stopped adding the copyrighted text.— dαlus Contribs 06:17, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]


I'm sorry as I came off as hostile, but in my first edit summary, I did quite clearly state that it was also a copyright violation. I also stated it in my first edit here, only to see you add it again, completely ignoring that part of my summary, and my edits here.— dαlus Contribs 06:31, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In case you aren't watching the page, I have responded to you in Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Rewilding_(Carnivores). By the way, to indent your response to me include three colons (:::) at the beginning of every paragraph. --❨Ṩtruthious andersnatch❩ 04:48, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
