I just got a post on this on my talk page. I mailed a PD release about this file months ago.I re-mailed it over a month ago. Can someone get on this please? [[User:Maury Markowitz|Maury Markowitz]] ([[User talk:Maury Markowitz|talk]]) 15:04, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

::The original release wasn’t quite adequate. I was asked for specific wording which would make it adequate; I even wrote out the exact wording which would suffice. The copyright holder merely needed to send it in or send it to Maury to forward to us. I just checked and I do not see any record that we received it. Oddly, there was a response to my email but it simply contained a copy of the image. If the copy holder sends in the permission statement I can undelete the image. If they don’t have the wording handy I can provide it again.--[[User:Sphilbrick|<span style="color:#002868;padding:0 4px;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">S Philbrick</span>]][[User talk:Sphilbrick|<span style=";padding:0 4px;color:# 000;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">(Talk)</span>]] 20:36, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

:::I have sent it again. I received the "thank you" automail. Looking in my mailbox, I see that this is actually the third time I have send this in, because I now have three identical automails in my received folder.

:::: {{ping|Maury Markowitz}} I found it, and processed it although it wasn’t easy. First, what you may have sent to three times, I only see one such email in our system. If you want to send dates and/or screenshots of the others I can try to track down whether we have problems receiving emails. However, when we respond to a permissions request with additional questions, the usual approach is for the individual to respond to the email. When that happens it shows up in the same ticket and sends an email to the agent handling it. Had that been done, I would have seen it fairly quickly. I did find it fairly quickly but only by luck as I happen to be glancing at this page. You sent it as a standalone email which did not include any of the prior history and did not include links to the images. I even wrote out the exact wording for the copyright holder to use and it wasn’t used which led to some delays.--[[User:Sphilbrick|<span style="color:#002868;padding:0 4px;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">S Philbrick</span>]][[User talk:Sphilbrick|<span style=";padding:0 4px;color:# 000;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">(Talk)</span>]] 12:07, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

    Welcome to the VRT noticeboard

    Wikimedia's volunteer response team (VRT) 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 VRT members 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 0 days.

    This noticeboard is primarily for
    1. Permissions verification and inquiries for text and files (hosted on the English Wikipedia) said to have been granted permission via VRTS.
    2. Requests for VRT member review of matters that have been described as VRT comments or actions.
    3. Other inquiries to VRT members that do not involve, disclose or reference private material.
    Do not post
    • Private information or links to private information (including but not limited to emails, phone numbers, physical addresses).
    • Fishing requests (asking for all details of a ticket or generally probing ticket information). You should make a specific request and clearly state the reason for your request.
    • Additional questions on a point, once a VRT member has indicated they cannot answer due to privacy issues. (Further inquiries and any complaints should be made via email.)
    • Requests for VRTS access (use meta:VRT/Volunteering instead).
    • Questions regarding media hosted on Wikimedia Commons (use Commons:Volunteer Response Team/Noticeboard instead).
    • Media questions unrelated to VRT (use Wikipedia:Media copyright questions instead).
