[edit] Wikipedia: Image policy

Due to the number of images you've recently uploaded that have appeared on Images for deletion, I'd like to point out Wikipedia's image policy. Please take the time to read the policy and rules of thumb for when uploading images in the future. Most notably: 1) Keep copyrights in mind when uploading images and always tag your image with one of the image copyright tags. 2) Always provide a detailed source for where the image came from, either a URL if it is from the web, or a name (or alias) and method of contact (i.e. Talk page, email, etc.) for the photographer. 3) Use a clear, detailed title. Note that if any image with the same title has already been uploaded, it will be replaced with your new one.

Also note that any image that is orphaned, unencyclopedic, not sourced, or a possible copyright violation may or will be subject to deletion. Thanks K1Bond007 19:30, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Yao_Shaq_Height_Chart.jpg

This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Yao_Shaq_Height_Chart.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|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 images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --OrphanBot 07:32, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
