User talk:Devane boyd 1835

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed from your recent contributions that you have uploaded a few pictures without giving a proper licence for them. You have rightly given the web address for the pictures you found, but unfortunately most stuff on the internet is under the same copyright laws as, for example, magazine or newspaper photos. There are fairly strict copyright rules on what is (and is not) allowed on Wikipedia for good reasons - mainly to prevent the Foundation being sued for breach of copyright. The pages here and here might be of some help if you want to check them out, but basically it all boils down to: if you upload an image, it's up to you to prove it is freely available for Wikipedia's use. It's also courteous to your fellow editors to discuss an image change on the article's talk page before diving in ;-) I hope this helps - any questions, leave a note on my talk page and I'll try to help out!
