This is KMSatoh202's Talk Page KMSatoh202 07:49, 10 May 2006 (UTC)KMSatoh202 I need help figuring out what license my picture Image:DSCN0987.JPG has. I took the picture on the University of Iowa campus on Feb 20, 2006. I would like to make it so that use of the image outside of Wikipedia requires my approval. Please help me, whoever reads this.

- Hello KMSatoh202, welcome to Wikipedia. To answer your question as best i can (although i am not an expert), i do not think you can upload an image with the conditions you mention (see here). The whole rationale of Wikipedia is that its information is in the public domain and free to use and reproduce. To add restrictions to images where people must ask permission for reuse is against this principle. Therefore, if you do not want your image reproduced then you should not upload it. I'm guessing the closest license to this you can use is {{cc-by-sa-2.5}}—Attribution-Sharealike 2.5. This means you have to be credited (in a manner of your choosing) and people must maintain these conditions if they share the image with others. I hope this helps, however, let me know if i can be of further assistance. Also, if you want expert advice on copyright issues in wikipedia images, feel free to contact one of these editors directly.

Hello to whoever reads this! I'm wondering how to make my user page interesting like so many of the others that I see out there. I have looked at their pages and noticed their templates such as {{user Chicago}} etc. I am looking for a page or something that would give me a bunch of available options that I can use. For example, I want to know how I can add the boxes for my college, language, browser, and more. I looked all over the help sections and searched in google but I could not find any answers. For now, I am forced to search other member's pages and find what templates they are using. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! KMSatoh202 07:50, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
