The attached photograph was used in the Vermont Sunday Magazine on September 9, 1990 with your permission. I would seek your permission to use it in the Wikipedia article on Flanders. Is it possible that you could release it (or some lower-resolution version of it) for free use by Wikipedia and its downstream users? The following is from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requesting_copyright_permission: The main legal thing that is important to explain to potential contributors: they would be agreeing that their picture (or text) can be used freely by Wikipedia AND its downstream users, and that such use might include commercial use, for which the contributor is not entitled to royalties or compensation. Wikimedia itself is a non-profit organization, and any money raised from the re-use of Wikimedia content would go to furthering our aims—buying new servers to keep the websites running efficiently, producing print runs, making Wikipedia available on CD/DVD for schools and developing countries. However, not all of those who re-use our content are so high-minded. This means that a contributor's work might appear in print or digital versions of this encyclopedia that are sold in stores. It might appear in WikiReaders , or other specialized subsets of the full text—teacher curriculum packets, publicity brochures, other uses we haven't thought of yet. It will certainly be used by other websites that legally copy our content. …I look forward to your reply. Sincerely, -- Stephen Flanders (signature block)
