Uploads by Corpx from ShaggyBevo.com

These images are sourced from the forum ShaggyBevo.com. However unless one is a registered user and logged in, this forum cannot be searched nor can threads be linked to that can be viewed. The license permissions are stated to come from the authors via PMs or chat messages, e.g. "Picture taken by aaronisnotcool of ShaggyBevo.com and permission granted to upload here under CC2.0 license through correspondence through site PM," or "orangesky : 'I license my pics of Mack Brown, Major Applewhite, and Will Muschamp under cc 2.5. Corpx (talk) 09:09, 30 July 2008 (UTC) '. This is a completely unverifiable means to confirm the licensing or indicate that the authors are aware of how the licenses work. Several of these images were tagged for {{LicenseReview}}, which was reverted by CorpX for reasons such as "dont mess with templates you dont know how to use" or "source is dynamic and threads are pruned all the time. no way to provide active link." --BrokenSphere (Talk) 02:18, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I dont know what your problem is. You first went through tagging images with a template that you obviously do not know how to use and now you've nominated them for deletion. A bunch of the High Res ones are from flickr as well, but they were were apparently deleted since upload to commons. The only one that had a problem was one with a logo on a scoreboard, and I requested deletion for that. Anyway, if you question my sources, feel free to contact the associated posters on the forum and they'll confirm it. It's stupid to nominate something for deletion because you're not, or too lazy to, verify the authors credited. Corpx (talk) 03:49, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I asked about this on the Village Pump and was advised to use the License Review tag. A few admins responded to this. As I said, I went through and tagged several of these images with that tag. Instead of following process and allowing third party reviewers to actually review the images, you removed the tags. As these are YOUR UPLOADS, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to PROPERLY confirm and make it verifiable that they are licensed for what you claim them to be. For all I or anyone else knows you could have taken them right from ShaggyBevo and just made up the license release dialog yourself. Instead of doing something like OTRS, like you did with File:Earl campbell shaggybevo.jpg, also sourced from ShaggyBevo, for this group of images instead you asked people via PM and chat message to license their images freely. It seems to me that YOU are the one who was taking shortcuts and was not willing to take the time to set up these uploads so that there wouldn't be potential problems lateer on with verifying authorship or licensing. If you are using on such a dynamic and unstable source for your uploads, maybe you need to find something more stable and reliable or use proper and reliable means of verifying authorship and license.

If you're talking about File:Rrslogo.jpg, you didn't request deletion for this image, I flagged it as a derivative. BrokenSphere (Talk) 04:53, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I requested deletion for that file through IRC after talking with some of the people there, when I determined that it did fall outside fair use. As for the template, that is NOT how you use it. If you were to use it properly, it would not show up like this. So, either learn to use it properly, or quit using it at all. I know full well how to go through OTRS, but it is just not worth the trouble making a message board poster jump through hoops to get it here. The poster names are on the pictures, if anyone wants to verify them. I'm not an idiot to make up stuff so that I can upload them to Commons. As far as I knew at the time of the uploading, commons did not delete stuff unless evidence of the contrary was presented, so I'm not sure what the point of your witch hunt through my images is.
