Images

[edit]

The images contained in the article are with permission from Pacific Dining Car. Yidanzzz (talk) 05:24, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Yidanzzz: - your images are likely to be deleted from Commons because you have loaded them as your own work, whereas in fact you copied them from the Pacific Dining Car website, which is a copyright violation. It is not sufficient for the copyright holder to simply give permission for the images to be used on Wikipedia, they have to actually release them under a CC license themselves. They can do this by putting a copyright statement on the source pages stating that they are released under the appropriate CC license, or it can be resolved through the OTRS process.

@Yidanzzz: - If you are in contact with the folks over at the PDC, you could ask them if they are willing to release their photos under a Creative Commons license, like CC 3.0 Sharealike. If they are, and they send you an email stating as much, you can re-load the photos over at Commons, specifying the URL where you found the photo and stating that it has been released under a CC license. Someone from OTRS will contact you to verify this, which is when you would forward them the email from the PDC folks. Here is an example of a photo that I loaded in this manner and had OTRS verify.

Yidanzzz, when you post in talk pages, follow your post with 4 tildes (ie, ~~~~) as this will add a signature to your post. I just added one for you above. Robman94 (talk) 14:26, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Yidanzzz: Your navbox does not conform to guidelines – in particular, "external links should not be included in navigation templates". They are intended to aid navigation among articles on a related subject, not collect links to external websites. A limited number of those should be placed in an "External links" section.
