Just to be clear. Text inserted into wikipedia - must be available under a true free license - i.e. all commercial use / modification acceptable. The terms of use for the Canadian website appear to be incompatible with that. Megapixie 10:14, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:Cassaloco.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Cassaloco.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds 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:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 13:05, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Image tagging for Image:MAPED.jpg

Image source problem with Image:MAPED.jpg

edit
 
Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:MAPED.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, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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:Non-free content, 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 tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Calliopejen1 (talk) 20:01, 27 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

edit

File:POMZ.JPEG is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:POMZ.JPEG. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis.

You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:POMZ.JPEG]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 16:17, 29 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

File:POMZ1.JPEG missing description details
