[edit] License tagging for Image:Stisin5.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Stisin5.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:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Why remove the Sarawak coat of arms from the "Sarawak" template?
This is not about 'hating' Sarawak. Under Wikipedia's fair use policy item #9, images that are classified as 'fair use' are prohibited from being used in templates. As for the other state emblems, lets just say that they have not been discovered - yet. While I do not agree with this, it is something that is a policy of Wikipedia and that I would like for the Sarawak template to be free from rampant reverts and editing that are endless. – Matthew A.
