Hello,
While checking WLM submissions from KR, EA Gu (CC'ed) has found some submissions were first uploaded to external sites (ie. Flickr) and then submitted to WLM.
Since this is the first WLM in KR, we don't have a case to use as a precedent, so any advice or opinion is welcome here.

Hi Yongmin,
Is there any doubt that the images are submitted by their photographer? If it is clear that the image is submitted to Wikimedia Commons by its author, it is usually not considered a problem.
Sometimes an earlier submission to another website is an indication that the submission to WLM is not by its original author - this is why sometimes this becomes a problem (people doubt the submission is truthful). If you have such doubt, just send a quick email to the original account/website where the image was first published and ask them to confirm it's the same person.
Best, Lodewijk

Hey Yongmin,
Here what I did.
I found this image (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:GOKUL_MEDH_(Behula_Lakshindarer_Basa...) in an another website in here (https://500px.com/photo/109623931/gokul-medh-behula-lakshindarer-basar-ghar-...), so I asked the user in that website to confirm that he is the actual uploader in commons as well (see the comment sec. of that external image). When he confirmed that he was the uploader, I took a screenshot of it and archived the proof in OTRS along with the necessary info and links. Then marked the Commons image with OTRS permission.
Best,

Hello Yongmin. There is no problem if a picture was uploaded to Flickr. In fact, Wikimedia Spain has used a Flickr group for WLM 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 (not 2016) and WLM 2015. In our case people uploaded the photos to that group under a free license. So, the only problem is knowing if the uploader on Wikimedia Commons and Flickr is the same. If yes, OK.
