[edit] License tagging for Image:IMG 3466 2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:IMG 3466 2.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:

[edit] Question about Image:IMG 4664 edited-2.jpg

Are you the same person who posts to Flickr as Walter Scriptunas? An image you uploaded and claimed as your own, Image:IMG 4664 edited-2.jpg, bears a striking resemblance to an image currently on Flickr. If you are, thank you for contributing the image to the public domain; if you aren't, please be aware that we take copyright violations very seriously on Wikipedia (please see Wikipedia:Copyrights for more information), and violations are deleted as soon as they are detected and proven. Also images with no valid source or licensing information are also deleted (as you've seen in the last few days).

If you'd like to contribute more of your own photographs under a free license, may I suggest uploading them to Wikimedia Commons where they can be used by all Wikimedia projects. Thanks! Slambo (Speak) 18:39, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
