I, or someone I represent, am the subject of an article in Wikipedia. I wish to submit photos of this person for use on Wikipedia and its sister projects.

Have you tried uploading the image for yourself? You can upload images at this page, by following a few simple steps. Then complete the template permission email at WP:CONSENT, including the name of the image that you chose when uploading it, and email the permission form to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. Do not e-mail photos to this address. Alternatively, you can get help online at Wikipedia:Files for upload.

You can then add it to the article about the person, by following the instructions at Help:Files.

While we have a facility to accept images for upload by email, we have very few people to process these emails and it may take a long time before your image is uploaded if you email it to us.

If you would prefer just to send us the photo[మార్చు]

Please e-mail the photo in the highest available resolution to photosubmission@wikimedia.org

In that email, you must explicitly state:

  1. That you own the copyright on the photo—you photographed it yourself, it is a work for hire (if you are unclear as to the term, please read the hyperlinked article), or the copyright was transferred to you via written statement or operation of law (e.g., inheritance). Please specify which scenario applies, and please note that just because you commissioned a photographer to take a photo and paid for it does not (in most countries) mean that you own the copyright of the photo.
  2. What copyright license you want to release it under. Whatever license you choose must allow the photo to be freely copied and modified by anyone, including third parties not affiliated with Wikipedia, for any purpose. (See Licensing/Justifications for a detailed explanation of why.) We recommend using the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license.
  3. How you would like the copyright holder to be attributed, e.g. by your name, your company, etc.

We are sorry, but we cannot process emails offering us photographs without this information. In particular, we will refuse photographs coming with licensing statements such as "free use on Wikipedia". Bear in mind that we do not guarantee we will use your photo. By submitting a photo to us under one of these licenses, you are allowing anyone to copy and modify this photo for any purpose. This includes using it commercially, but you still retain personality rights that may limit commercial exploitation of your likeness.

It will also help the agents if you provide basic descriptive information about the photo. Who or what is the photo depicting? Where was it taken? On what date was it taken? Who took the photo? Who is the license/copyright attributed to? And finally, in what article(s) would you like the photo to be placed?
