Christ the Redeemer (statue)
Amartins, I have just placed a copyvio notice on the text you entered in February to the page for the statue in Rio, since it seems to be a direct copy/paste of information from. Since it infringes copyright, this is against Wikipedia's policy - if you know more, such as if you are the writer of that information and are able to grant copyright to Wikipedia, then please address it. If it was text copied with the intent of helping Wikipedia, then many thanks for the intent, but due to the potential copyright issues this will have to be removed or replaced, either with newly written text that is not a rewrite of the text from the source page or simply by adding a link that points to the page itself, which is allowed. --User:Firien § 13:43, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Pop historia1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Pop historia1.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rory096 23:41, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Pop historia1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Pop historia1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rory096 23:41, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
