Image copyright problem RE: Image:Capt.sge.fyl72.080905135203.photo00.photo.default-333x384.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Capt.sge.fyl72.080905135203.photo00.photo.default-333x384.jpg, Image:02 12.jpg, and Image:05 03.jpg. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page as well as the pages of the other two images:
 * The copyright holder, and
 * The copyright status

The copyright holder is usually the creator. If the creator was paid to make this image, then their employer may be the copyright holder. If several people collaborated, then there may be more than one copyright holder. If you created this image, then you are the copyright holder.

Because of the large number of images on Wikipedia, we've sorted them using image copyright tags. Just find the right tag corresponding to the copyright status of this image, and paste it onto the image description page like this:.

There are 3 basic ways to licence an image on Wikipedia:
 * An open content licence
 * Public Domain
 * Fair Use


 * The copyright holder gets the best protection of his work by licencing their work under an open content license like the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike licence. If you have the express permission of the copyright holder to licence their work under the above licence, use the image copyright tag: cc-by-sa-2.5.  The GNU Free Documentation License is another choice for licencing one's work.  Again, if you have the express permission of the copyright holder, use the tag: GFDL.


 * The copyright holder can also release his work into the public domain, see here for images released into the public domain.


 * Images from certain sources are automatically release into the Public Domain. This is true for most governments like the federal United States government. (See   here  for images from the government of the USA and here for other governments)  However not all governments release their work into the public domain, such as the UK government (See here for images from the UK government).  Non-free licence governments are listed here.


 * Also, in some cases, an image is copyrighted but allowed on Wikipedia because of Fair Use. To see if this image qualifies and then how to tag it, see Fair use.

For any other sources of for more information see Image copyright tags. Please remember that if you don't tag your images, they will be deleted.


 * P.S. If you have uploaded other images without including copyright tags, please go back and tag them.  Also, please tag all images that you upload in the future.

If you have any questions, just leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again. --Loren 04:42, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

Image copyrights
Hi, I'd like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia, however at the same time I'd like to bring to your attention some problems regarding the copyright status of the images you've uploaded. In order to prevent copyright problems with content owners, when uploading images you must select the proper licence that applies and include that template on the image description page. For example, if an image is considered to be Fair use, you should add the tag at the bottom of the page. For a list of image copyright tags, please see Image copyright tags. Additionally, please be sure to include the source of the image on the image page and to rename images you upload to something more descriptive (for example: "THSR_interior.jpg" is more descriptive then "Image:02_12.jpg"). For more information on image uploading and usage, please see Uploading images. The images you have uploaded are very good and I'd hate to see them get deleted because of missing copyright and licencing info. Thanks! -Loren 20:53, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:110663905134001.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:110663905134001.gif. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read 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 images, please check 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. Thank you.Rossrs 14:40, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
