License tagging for Image:Wives2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Wives2.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Marshfield

Can you confirm that there is no copyright material in your recent detailed additions here please? (It also reads slightly POV and non-encyclopaedic in places :-) Bob aka Linuxlad 09:56, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bob. Thankyou. POV?? Can you explain please? how do you mean Non encyclopaedic? Do you think I should delete it? I'm new to this and want to make sure it's done properly so any help would be very much appreciated.

Well, there's a couple of examples in your second sentence - 'There can be few examples ...' Er who says - if you, it's a Point of View that you are expressing via the unsigned article - if not you, you need the origin citing - good source for these sorts of judgements is our old friend Pevsner. For all its faults WP is meant to be an encyclopaedia, with some degree of reliability, and some degree of 'distance', (ie a Neutral Point of View) not travelogue. Also, are you quoting anything substantial? If so try not to (it's breach of copyright). Short quotes are usually acceptable with attribution. Large quotes from other sources can usually be better made anyway, by a link to another websource. There are several WP guidelines on this - I suggest you go to WP help.

That said, don't want to put you off :-) enjoy!Linuxlad 13:47, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

POV means "point of view" or, more precisely, "not conforming to a neutral point of view", which all Wikipedia articles are required to do. Stifle (talk) 09:45, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Skele1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Skele1.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 09:44, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Matithemapt.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Matithemapt.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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 Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia: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 uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BrownCow  (how now?) 22:59, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. John of Reading (talk) 15:16, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
