[edit] License tagging for Image:The Sign next to the Rochdal Canal, Castleton.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:The Sign next to the Rochdal Canal, Castleton.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. 17:10, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your Castleton images

Greetings. I understand your frustration with your image being deleted. Since you created the image yourself, we're really glad you're willing to release it under a free license and upload it to Wikipedia, and I certainly don't want to discourage you. Here's the thing: we get literally hundreds of images uploaded to Wikipedia every day without proper source or license information. The vast majority of these are copyright violations, and there's no sure way to tell which are and which aren't. This is why they routinely get deleted without getting much notice. I have restored the image; you can find it at Image:The Sign next to the Rochdal Canal.JPG. I tagged it as GFDL. If this is incorrect, and you'd rather tag it with a different free license, please change it. Also, if I can help you with tagging and sourcing your images so they don't get deleted in the future, just let me know. All the best, – Quadell (talk) (random) 11:54, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
