Changing radio station logos
editHi, Tracy. I don't know exactly how to do this for you, but I've seen Help Desk pages that explain the process so sometime later today I'll take the time to do that.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 16:12, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, I have time now. I'm on my way to searching for the information for you.— Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:33, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
- My power went out and I had to get back to the various sites I was on. And that delayed my finding a response for you. This is the page you want to look at. You probably don't want to let Wikipedia use the logos under Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike license or GNU Free Documentation License because your company is using them to make money, and because either of these would let anyone use the logos for any reason without permission or without compensation. As for why the logo is allowed under fair use, I would say the old logo has this and you would look at that file.

- If you want to add an existing image to an article, add
[[File:File name.jpg|thumb|Caption text.]]
to the area of the article where you want the image to appear – replacingFile name.jpg
with the actual file name of the image, andCaption text
with a short description of the image. See our picture tutorial for more information. - If you want to upload an image from your computer for use in an article, you must determine the proper license of the image (or whether it is in the public domain). If you know the image is public domain or copyrighted but under a suitable free-license, upload it to the Wikimedia Commons instead of here, so that all projects have access to the image (sign up). If you are unsure of the licensing status, see the file upload wizard for more information. Please also read Wikipedia's image use policy. I hope this helps.
