Poster claims to be the author or to have permission[edit]
This section is specifically intended for pages which contain apparently non-GFDL copyright material for which a User has claimed copyright or permission(s). Initial listings of pages with suspected copyright problems should not be listed in this section. When placing items here, please post under the relevant month (eg. if the copyvio listing was first made in October 2005, please post it there). If you are a Wikipedia editor or administrator following up on a copyright problem, please place a note under the relevant listing, stating what you have done or plan to do; this will help prevent duplicated efforts at resolving the problem. Once the uploader has been notified of how to prove ownership or permission, pages should be deleted after 2-3 weeks if no proof has been forthcoming.
If there is a claim, follow up by placing the Maintenance text found at the bottom of the tagged article on the article talk page and/or the user's talk page.
