r/Place image
Hello Djboy2.

Per your edit summary here, the 2022 image is low resolution on Wikipedia because there's a strict policy on use of non-free copyrighted images on Wikipedia under fair use under US copyright laws. Per non-free content criteria, copyrighted non-free images needs to be lower resolution than original to avoid replacing its original market role.

The image of the canvas on the r/Place is copyrighted and non-free and is therefore lower resolution than original to satisfy Wikipedia's non-free content criteria and US fair use doctrine.

I've reverted your high-resolution upload back to its low-resolution version per policy.

I would also like to note that the high-resolution version you uploaded to Wikimedia Commons is a copyright violation and has been deleted there because the image has not been licensed under any free licence, contrary to your claimed licence. In addition, Wikimedia doesn't allow any non-free images, even under fair use. Therefore non-free images has to be uploaded locally to English Wikipedia here, which already exists here: File:RPlace2022.png.

Also note that knowingly adding images that is a copyright violation on Commons (especially you have uploaded yourself) is also copyright violation here on Wikipedia, and may result being blocked from editing on Wikipedia for repeated violations.

If you have any questions regarding copyright policy on Wikiedpa, please reply to me, or add question at Media copyright questions. Thank you for understanding. Stylez995 (talk) 18:36, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
