Hi all,
Sorry if this is something I really ought to know :/
Is there a standard form of words - either from OTRS wiki or that you have used - that is helpful when you are contacting organisations or individuals to ask for image donations?
Context: I would like to contact artists to ask if they have image shots they would be prepared to donate to commons to support creation of articles about them.
Problem: I need to be able to say a) What the benefit of donating the image is to them and to us b) what the consequences of CC-BY-SA donation are in terms of that images use for a non expert.
Also it would help if anyone can share the easiest process for managing uploading when you don't hold the copyright but the image donor does (but they are a non-expert/non editor)
Thank you!
