Warnings, and permissions, and copyright
Hi, just a note that the warning that was placed here earlier today was placed mistakenly. An administrator will consider your request at Requests for permissions/Confirmed in due course.

On the subject of coins copyright, I see some Canadian coins are uploaded under fair use criteria as for example, although that one's fair use rationale doesn't look very detailed to me, and may or may not stand up to scrutiny.

Canadian coins themselves are copyrighted (see here), and for some images of coins (where the image is taken by someone else other than yourself), copyright may also exist in the image itself (short explanation here).

As you can see, copyright makes all this a lot more complicated than it ought to be! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 12:41, 8 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Just a quick note that there's a question for you at Requests for permissions/Confirmed now. I can't do much to confirm the answer other than the links I've already given, but you might be able to get more information by asking at Media copyright questions explaining everything involved. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 09:39, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Confirmed
It looks like your account just got Confirmed status so you should be able to upload images on Wikipedia now. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 21:49, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
