Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images/Header

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blatant copyright violations or images missing source or license information may be "speedied" If an image is unquestionably copied from another website and no assertion of permission or fair use is made, the image may be speedy deleted under criterion I9. Please tag the image with {{subst:db-copyvio|url=source URL}} and warn the user with {{Nothanks-sd}}. If an image is missing source or license information, place either: {{subst:nsd}} for no source or {{subst:nld}} for no license on the image description page to put the image in the appropriate category. After being tagged for 7 days, the image will be eligible for speedy deletion per criterion 4 for images. Please also notify the uploader so they get a chance to fix the problem(s). The templates {{image source|Image:Image name.ext}} and {{image copyright|Image:Image name.ext}} are made for this purpose, but feel free to write a message of your own. It is not necessary to warn the uploader about every individual image if they have uploaded several such images, but at least one message telling them that images without source/license will be deleted should be given to each user.

Shortcut: WP:PUI

This page is for listing and discussing images that are used under a non-free license or have disputed source or licensing information. Images are listed here for 14 days before they are processed.

Before listing, check if the image should be listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems (if its source is known and it cannot be used under a free license or fair use doctrine) or at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion (if it's simply unneeded).

To list an image on this page:

I	Edit the image page. Add {{pui|log=2008 June 11}} to the image page. If the image is in use, also add {{puic|Image:Image_name.ext|log=2008 June 11}} to the caption(s).
II	Create its PUI subsection. Follow this edit link and list the image at the bottom of that page using {{subst:pui2|image=Image_name.ext|reason=reason}} — ~~~~. (remember to exclude the Image: prefix).
III	Give due notice. Inform the uploader by adding a message to their talk page using {{subst:idw-pui|Image:Image_name.ext}} Remember to replace "Image_name.ext" with the name of the image or media

Unlike Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion the primary purpose of this page is to ascertain the source and/or copyright status of an image. Therefore it is not specifically a vote to keep or delete but a forum for the exploration of the copyright status/source of an image and contributions should not be added solely in those terms.

Listings should be processed by an administrator after being listed for 14 days. Images that are accepted following this fourteen-day period should have {{subst:puir}} added to the image talk page and a copy of the issue and/or discussion that took place here put on the image talk page as well.

Note: Images can be unlisted immediately if they are indisputably in the public domain or licensed under an indisputably free license (GFDL, CC-BY-SA, etc.—see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for more on these). Images which claim fair use must have two people agree to this.
