[edit] License tagging for Image:Bundy.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bundy.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:

Are you able to take a free content picture of Dr. Bundy? (The Commons would be a great place for such an image.) Also, be sure to check out the Penn State WikiProject dedicated to building up articles related to the University. Thanks! GChriss <always listening><c> 02:56, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Multiple Copyright Problems

Hi,

I noticed that images (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) that you uploaded are tagged as public domain. Public domain only applies if you took the pictures yourself, they where published before 1923, or the lifetime of the author plus 100 years has passed. I was able to find online copies of some images directly from Penn State websites.

The images will need to either be removed or re-tagged with an appropriate license. Wikipedia runs best on free content pictures uploaded to the Commons. Thanks, GChriss <always listening><c> 16:53, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Using Commons pictures in Wikipedia

Hi, After uploading pictures to the commons, just include a line as follows in any Wikipedia article:

[[Image:Some_image.png|thumb|right|300px|Text caption...]]

Check to see that a file of the same name (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Some_image.png) is not included in Wikipedia, as the Commons is checked second. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to ask. Hope this helps, GChriss <always listening><c> 04:50, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
