[edit] Image copyright problem RE: Image:Escortcarrier.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Escortcarrier.jpg. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page:

  • The copyright holder, and
  • The copyright status

The copyright holder is usually the creator. If the creator was paid to make this image, then their employer may be the copyright holder. If several people collaborated, then there may be more than one copyright holder. If you created this image, then you are the copyright holder.

Because of the large number of images on Wikipedia, we've sorted them using image copyright tags. Just find the right tag corresponding to the copyright status of this image, and paste it onto the image description page like this: {{TAGHERE}}.

There are 3 basic ways to licence an image on Wikipedia:

  • The copyright holder gets the best protection of his work by licencing their work under an open content license like the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike licence. If you have the express permission of the copyright holder to licence their work under the above licence, use the image copyright tag: {{cc-by-sa-2.5}}. The GNU Free Documentation License is another choice for licencing one's work. Again, if you have the express permission of the copyright holder, use the tag: {{GFDL}}.
  • The copyright holder can also release his work into the public domain, see here for images released into the public domain.
    • Images from certain sources are automatically release into the Public Domain. This is true for most governments like the federal United States government. (See here for images from the government of the USA and here for other governments) However not all governments release their work into the public domain, such as the UK government (See here for images from the UK government). Non-free licence governments are listed here.
  • Also, in some cases, an image is copyrighted but allowed on Wikipedia because of Fair Use. To see if this image qualifies and then how to tag it, see Wikipedia:Fair use.

For any other sources of for more information see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. Please remember that if you don't tag your images, they will be deleted.

P.S. If you have uploaded other images without including copyright tags, please go back and tag them. Also, please tag all images that you upload in the future.

If you have any questions, just leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again. --Sherool (talk) 00:22, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

The same goes for these images: Image:Nubianstarbird.jpg, Image:Nubiancruiser.jpg, Image:Queenship-ig01.jpg, Image:Nubian-armed.jpg, Image:E065airspeeder.jpg, Image:Legine.jpg, Image:Protorp2.jpg, Image:Naboofighter8.jpg, Image:Naboobomber.jpg, Image:Naboofighter4.jpg, Image:Naboofighter2.jpg, Image:Naboofighterl1.jpg and Image:Wlightmedium2.jpg.
In addition these images lack both source and copyright info: Image:Nubianshuttle.jpg, Image:Corelliangunship.jpg and Image:Gunga.jpg
Please fix this ASAP, these images become eligable for speedy deletion 7 days from now unless they have a proper source and copyright information. Thanks. --Sherool (talk) 23:34, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
