[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Kickflip.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Kickflip.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

You noted that the image on the site did not have a copyright statement associated with it, and asserted that it was therefore public domain. This is not true. The holder of a copyright is assumed to hold that copyright until such time as they willfully release their rights; the lack of a copyright statement does not constitute release of rights. In the absence of a copyright satement, we must presume the copyright holder has not released their rights. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. --Durin 20:46, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Skateboard category.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Skateboard category.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:
