We should keep this message around, so that people will use it. This will ensure that we can find these images and promptly delete them.  :-) Jimbo Wales 11:16, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I don't understand the policy of banning used-by-permission images. These images are 100% legal to use worldwide. Wikipedia has zillions of legally dubious "fair use" images. ("Fair use" means that the image is copyrighted and we don't have permission to use it, but the law in some countries tolerates minor copyright infringement). Why single out for disapproval the images that we have explicit permission to use? Mirror Vax 00:01, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
I think it's because the permission doesn't cover commercial use. See here and here. Coffee 15:52, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Uglyness

Can someone de-obnoxify this by removing or shrinking the !!OMG MORTAL DANGER STOP!! image? 24ip | lolol 02:40, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

If you see the attached message from Jimbo about copyrighted images, so no, I doubt this is going to be de-obnoxified. jnothman talk 11:09, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit proposal

Can an admin please use includeonly around the Category tag in the template, so that Template:Copyrighted is not erroneously included in Category:Images used with permission? Thanks. Stifle 15:25, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Done. Ral315 (talk) 06:10, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
