Category:Presumed GFDL images

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are images that have been unverified to be free of copyright issues, but there is reasonable basis to believe that the images were created by the uploader and hence are mostly public domain or GFDL, i.e. redistributable under the GFDL. Many such images were uploaded in or before 2004, when the image uploaders were not warned about deletion of their images if they fail to tag them, and images were assumed to be redistributable under GFDL unless the uploader specified fair use or specific permission to use in Wikipedia (or some other licensing information).

To place an image in this category, add the tag {{GFDL-presumed|<your Wikipedia username>}} if you believe in good faith that the uploader intended the image to be redistributable under the GFDL based on some reasonable criteria such as a suggestion in their image upload summary or a suggestion in a page in which the uploader included the image or a suggestion in the edit summary of a page in which the uploader included the image.

Images with no reasonable indication of source should not be included here, because without it we can't assume the uploader created the image, and such images should get {{nosource}}. Images with a source other than the uploader should never be listed here because only the copyright holder can make the content GFDL. This means that if you are the uploader of the image you should never use {{GFDL-presumed}}

You are welcome to check images in this category (as well as all other images) for copyright violations and list them in Wikipedia:Copyright problems.
