[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Joseph Cowles.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Joseph Cowles.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Muchness (talk) 15:04, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Images uploaded to the English Wikipedia must conform to the English Wikipedia's image use policy. On the English Wikipedia, an image's description page must specify the image's source (which Image:Joseph Cowles.jpg already does), and include an appropriate copyright tag. Additionally, if the image is not available for use under a free content license, it must also include a fair use rationale. Another thing to bear in mind is that if the image could reasonably be replaced by a free image (for instance, if it's a photo of a living person), we can't use it on the English Wikipedia. I hope this helps to clarify matters; please feel free to contact me if you need further assistance. Regards. --Muchness (talk) 15:29, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Joseph_Cowles.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Joseph_Cowles.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 18:21, 15 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? MECU≈talk 18:21, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
