Wikipedia:OTRS noticeboard
Wikimedia's volunteer response team (OTRS) handles copyright permissions, email inquiries from the public, reuse inquiries, article errors, and a wide range of non-public inquiries. The email service is operated and managed by a cross-project team of volunteers at the Meta-Wiki level and not by the English Wikipedia community. Actions by OTRS volunteers on English Wikipedia are ultimately subject to review by the Arbitration Committee. Please be aware that there is sometimes a backlog in processing tickets sent to the permissions-en queue. This backlog is currently 137 days.

File:Revolutionary Times 1998.jpg[edit]
I deleted this file for lacking evidence of permission. It was tagged with {{OTRS pending}} by the uploader The Hammer of Thor, but that was removed by the OTRS volunteer Czar just under an hour later because the ticket was not in the system. The uploader states that the author sent an email, but she did not receive a ticket number. Can someone take another look? ℯxplicit 02:30, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

ticket # 2016112610010078 - Pending deletion of page 2[edit]
Welshdick (talk) 09:21, 5 April 2017 (UTC) Hi, I have submitted a copy of the original letter to the family (Me, Ven Hugh Evans' son) from Owen Evans. The letter is one page with both sides hand written and signed by Owen Evans dated 20 November 1995. I spoke to Owen in November 2016, explained what I wanted it for and obtained his permission to use the letter in my submission and to have it freely available on Wikipedia. I then sent him a a copy with the following wording added to the front of the letter. "I Rev Dr. Owen E Evans give permission for this letter to be freely available in the Public Domain" which he duly signed and returned on 17/11/2016. A copy of this has been sent to yourselves. I also asked Wikipedia if I had to replace the original letter with the one containing the signed permission and was informed that this was not required. In summary, I own the letter and have the signed permission of the person who wrote it, to have it freely available in Wikipedia and the Public Domain.
