[edit] License tagging for Image:Ph-10191.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ph-10191.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:

[edit] Redlinks

Redlinks should be used very sparingly, and only when either there's a good chance that an article with that name will be written soon (meaning, you plan on doing it!), or when the subject is so important, that the redlink is used as a way to prompt an article to be written. The problem with how you added them, is that you added an "Inc" in the name, and that's almost never used in article titles. So, if and when an article on CH is written, these redlinks won't even connect to it. It's usually better to wait and make the links after the article is written, so that there aren't orphaned redlinks out there that everyone's forgotten about (and, on a personal note, this is a wierd collision of real- and wiki-worlds, as I'm writing about CH here, and just installed a cyclic actator that they overhauled onto my helo!)

[edit] Image policy

This image was deleted because it was not licensed in a way that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies. If the image can legitimately be used freely then we may be able to use it. We cannot accept images that specify non-profit use only, or Wikipedia use only. See http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2005-May/023760.html for details. Best wishes, --Guinnog 14:08, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

I've "zapped" it again, I am afraid. The solution would be to get the permission of the copyright holder to upload it as a free image. Otherwise it is doubtful if we can use it. Sorry. --Guinnog 14:19, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

(from Wikipedia:Image copyright tags) "If you are the the creator of an image, you can choose any acceptable free license. You can multi-license your image under different licenses, if you prefer. The license must not prevent commercial reuse or derivative works.

  • GNU Free Documentation License - {{GFDL-self}} or {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} - Written by the Free Software Foundation. People are required to attribute the work to you, and if they make changes or incorporate your work in their work, they are required to share their changes or work under the same license.
  • Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike - {{cc-by-sa-2.5|Attribution details}} - This is one of several CC licenses. This version permits free use, including commercial use; requires that you be attributed as the creator; and requires that any derivative creator or redistributor of your work use the same license. The desired attribution text should be included as a parameter in the template.
  • Public domain - {{pd-self}} - The creator permanently relinquishes all rights to the work.
  • Free Art license - {{FAL}} - A copyleft license for artwork; modification and commercial use are allowed, provided derivative works carry the same license."
I really hope that this helps. --Guinnog 14:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
