From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello, Thanks for posting the picture to Ibrahim Fall. The only concern is that *some* people at wikipedia are pretty strict about copyright notices for images. Try choosing "Public Domain: published in the United States prior to 1923" and/or ({{PD-because|Pre-1909, outside US}} in the comment field when uploading an image.

The text I use for late 19th, begining of 20th century images:

 {{PD-because|Pre-1909, outside US}}

 "Source info: who published it."
 the work was in the public domain in the country of origin as of January 1, 1996, 

 See: http://www.copyright.cornell.edu/training/Hirtle_Public_Domain.htm

  WORKS PUBLISHED OUTSIDE THE US
 Date of Publication    Conditions      Copyright Term in the United States
 Before 1 July 1909     None            In the public domain

Hope this helps.T L Miles 13:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Ibrahimafall.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ibrahimafall.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:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy

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. 14:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
