Non-free content use
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload files. However, it appears that one or more of the files you have uploaded or added to a page, specifically User:Abdulazizjalthani/sandbox, may fail our non-free policy.

 * Hi! is correct that this poster can't be used in the way you're using it. Here's a general rundown of why:
 * With copyrights, work doesn't automatically fall into the public domain in the United States unless it was published before 1923. This would include any films or movie posters. This is an old film, but not old enough to fall into the public domain. That means that the film is still copyrighted unless it was specifically placed in the public domain by the copyright owner.
 * What this means for Wikipedia is that the film poster can only be used on Wikipedia in a very specific way. The fair use policy essentially only covers the use of the poster image in an article about the film itself, in the infobox about the movie. This means that it can't be used in other articles. The policy is so restrictive that we can't even use the poster in an article about an actor who was in the film or the movie's director.
 * Now this aside, I did want to caution you about your draft. Keep in mind that we can only summarize what has been explicitly stated in the source material. Avoid original research and "if... then..." type statements. You also want to be careful of terms - only use terms like double edged sword since that can come across as a judgement call on the idea of propaganda. I'd only use a term like that if it was used in the source material and if it was, it should be attributed. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:45, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
