File permission problem with File:Hamid_Soltanian-Zadeh.JPG

Thanks for uploading File:Hamid_Soltanian-Zadeh.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Misplaced Pages's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calliopejen1 (talk) 21:08, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

What you need to read

You need to read Crain's Detroit Business, to know that your hero, Farshad Fotouhi, is a very bad, corrupt man. Just because he's Iranian doesn't mean he's a good guy. Look at Mamud Ahmenutjob. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.75.185.107 (talk) 18:18, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

I appreciate you helping maintain the article, but hyperbolic accusations of "vandalism" do not help anyone. John Reaves 19:19, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments. The edits has nothing to do with race or nationality (As far as I know he is an American!). Your comments though, I'm not sure! what does Ahmadinejad have to do with this?! Just see that a person in a (previous) university position, who is cheap enough to bring their revenge to a wikipedia page after they lost their job (for whatever reason); If Fotouhi fired them, this behavior justifies his decision for me! If the accusation were true on Fotouhi, I'm sure they can be pursued legally. Until then it's just gossip, and I don't believe they have a place here. Crain's Detroit only contains a letter from "Rachel Kast" with the same accusations brought up here. How did you concluded that "he is a very bad corrupt man!" from that? I appreciate your help with the subject as well.

Here's another Crain's Detroit article: http://www.crainsdetroit.com/article/20130601/NEWS/306029984/ Read about the silane gas danger. Also read about Paul Strauss, who halted a $2 million donation to Wayne State.

"It was clear there was no hope for the TEAM project to continue under Fotouhi," said Strauss, who said he has terminated payments on his pledge, at least until another dean is in place. "I'm not going to give them another nickel."

This is not gossip. This is something published in a respected publication. And also something needed to balance the current hagiography thoughtlessly regurgitated from the WSU page. Detroit Joseph (talk) 22:29, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

A-ha! You over-reached! You took this opportunity to remove what a far more impartial editor allowed after careful weighing because you just can't accept that Crain's Detroit and the Detroit News have called your Iranian friend out on his corruption.

Next time you see Farshad "Ahmedinajad" Fotouhi in person, ask him point blank: did you really fire a lot of people to free up money in the budget to make your own office bigger and more luxurious? Did you risk the safety of the main building by firing the only staffer who knows how to properly shut off silane gas? Detroit Joseph (talk) 22:15, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
