[edit] Declaration of consent for all enquiries Due to the large number of ambiguous answers to enquiries concerning a permission of reuse for an image, text or similar (such as "I allow Wikipedia to reuse my photos") it is advisable to attach to your enquiry email a standard declaration of consent (and point to it in the email), which can be returned by the author/copyright owner in the email reply. The precedent below should be amended, as necessary, with the required additional information:
I hereby assert that I am the creator and/or sole owner of the exclusive copyright of WORK [ insert link ].
I agree to publish that work under the free license LICENSE [choose at least one from http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Copyright_tags ].
I acknowledge that I grant anyone the right to use the work in a commercial product, and to modify it according to their needs.
I am aware that I always retain copyright of my work, and retain the right to be attributed in accordance with the license chosen. Modifications others make to the work will not be attributed to me
I acknowledge that I cannot withdraw this agreement, and that the image may or may not be kept permanently on a Wikimedia project.
DATE, NAME OF THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER
The WORK, LICENSE and DATE, NAME OF THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER need to be filled out for this to be acceptable. This also helps clarify to the owner what they are agreeing to. Ejfetters 08:02, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Various studio publicity images, no verification they have been released for promotional use, same as discussed in prior listings for other TV publicity shots. Better replaced with screen caps. Ejfetters 07:05, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Non-encyclopedic. Please delete these and all history as they have been uploaded in error. Mgillaus 09:10, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
These are non-free screenshots from The Amazing Race, all of them uploaded by the same user (see here for proof of notification). A non-free use rationale is given on the talk page of each image, but I feel that the images fail criteria 5 and 8 of the non-free content criteria, which require that non-free images be encyclopedic and "significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic". These images, for the most part, show people standing around, driving around, talking, or doing other trivial things. In no case are the events depicted specifically discussed in the article. Indeed, there is no reason to reason to mention this trivial information. Despite the fair use claim, I contend that these images are being used solely or primarily for a decorative purpose.
Please note that I have not nominated all non-free images in Category:The Amazing Race contestants as there are some that may require separate discussion (i.e. for which a stronger case for non-free use could be made). — Black Falcon ( Talk) 17:18, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
