Non-free image use
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload new images. However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to a page, specifically List of political parties in Austria, may fail our non-free image policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted image of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free image criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:35, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi I didn't upload any imagem related to that page. I've just fixed the syntax of what was already there. Thanks. --Alan Moraes (talk) 19:18, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Alan Morales. The template says (emphasis mine) "However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to a page". The syntax of those particular files was not broken, but purposely set that way. Those files are non-free and they were linked to instead of displayed because their use in that particular article does not comply with Wikipedia's policy on non-free content use. When you "unlinked" them, you failed to provide a proper non-free use rationale for their use as required by WP:NFCC. Moreover, decorative use of non-free logos such as this in tables (WP:NFTABLES) and list articles (WP:NFLISTS) is generally not allowed for the reasons given in MOS:LOGO. These files have been replaced by freely licensed equivalents in Commons per WP:NFCC, so nothing further really needs to be done. For future reference, it might be a good idea to check the licensing of any files before you add/unlink them or the article's edit history just to make sure they are not non-free images which have been removed/hidden for a specific policy-based reason. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:42, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh! I'm sorry the confusion! I didn't know about that. Since the image was hosted in Wikimedia Commons, I've thought it would not be a problem to display them on Wikipedia. Thank you for the explanation! --Alan Moraes (talk) 03:30, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi again Alan Morales. I apologize if I've made things more confusing than needed. Basically, I removed the non-free File:Social Democratic Party of Austria logo.png and File:Austrian People's Party logo.png which you had added/unlinked here. The other image you "unlinked" was File:Team Stronach logo.svg which was also non-free, but was shadwoing another a freely licensed file of the same name uploaded to Commons. I knew that particular file was going to eventually be deleted, so I left it in the article. In general, however, using even freely licensed logos in such a way is not really recommended practice per MOS:ICON because there the encyclopedic value of doing so is questionable at best. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:22, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Marchjuly! It is now cristal clear to me. I apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you very much for your attention. --Alan Moraes (talk) 16:27, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
