Jeremy,

We did not authorise this licensing.

We hereby authorise the use of that image on Wikipedia under Creative
Commons CC-BY.

Do we need to do any more at this stage? Eg - do we put a CC-BY statement
under the photo on our site or do we need to fill out a form for such a
licence?

Subject: Frank Forde image on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons

Hi,

I'm a Wikipedia editor and I watch the article on the "Prime Minister's
Avenue" on the English Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Minister's_Avenue

For a long time, an image of Frank Forde's bust has been missing from the
photo gallery on that article, with a placeholder message requesting
somebody upload an image to use.

Today, I checked my watchlist, and noticed that somebody had uploaded an
image of Frank Forde's bust which they found at:

http://www.whitehat.com.au/australia/PMs/Forde.asp

...to Wikimedia Commons, credited you as the source, and added it to the
article's image gallery. The image's description page can be found at:

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Forde.jpg

However, the licensing terms on the Commons image description page are
inconsistent with that of your website. The image description by the
uploader says:

  Copyleft: This work of art is free; you can redistribute it and/or
  modify it according to terms of the Free Art License. You will find
  a specimen of this license on the site Copyleft Attitude
  http://artlibre.org/licence/lal/en/ as well as on other sites.

However, the licensing terms on your website say:

  All contents copyright C 1995 - 2009 White Hat, White Hat Tours.
  All rights reserved.

I guess the point and crux of my e-mail to you is to ask whether you
authorised the above licensing change to the Free Art License to allow it to
be uploaded to Wikipedia.

If you did not authorise the licensing, then I will alert an appropriate
administrator, have the image removed from the Wikipedia article, and have
the image deleted from Wikimedia Commons.

On the other hand, if you did authorise the licensing, please let me know so
I can add your authorisation as proof on the image description page so other
Wikipedia editors can know for sure.

Or, if you did not authorise the licensing, but still wish to keep the image
on the Wikipedia article (which we would really appreciate!), then just say
so in a reply to this e-mail, and I'll update the image description with
said authorisation. A free license (e.g. the Free Art License, Creative
Commons CC-BY or CC-BY-SA) is required for inclusion in Wikipedia.

Regards,
Jeremy.
