File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Marion Harding High School thumb.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Marion Harding High School thumb.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 meets the criteria at Non-free content, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created [ in your upload log]. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 15:12, 1 May 2011 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:12, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Im simply confused. I've spent way too much time on this little project. The photo is from the Tri-Rivers Career Center website. I have permission from the school to use it, But I think what might be best is for you to delete this and the other photos and I'll go out and take my own photos..and simply use the self tag and give everyone permission to use.

 * Hi, sorry about the trouble. If you have permission from the owners, that's great in principle, but unfortunately we cannot accept such 3rd party permissions without some sort of proof, plus, we need to make sure the permissions are stated in such terms as will allow anybody else, not just us on Wikipedia, to use the files. It may in the end well be easier if you do as you just said, simply create your own photographs. That would be worthwhile especially since the old images are so very small (Wikipedia loves user-created photographs in large, high-res format.)
 * BTW, I now notice nobody gave you the usual "welcome" blurb yet, so here goes; perhaps some of the links will be useful for you :-)

Welcome!

Hello, Grivers99, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Again, welcome! Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:55, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page and How to develop articles
 * How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
 * Manual of Style

BTW, just another technical hint: if you want to change the description of a file after the upload, the way to do it is not to go through the upload form again (you'll just be uploading another redundant copy of the same file, and the new information will end up merely in the edit summary), but to simply click the "edit" button on top of the file page, just as if it was any other wiki page, and edit the description the normal wiki way.
