License tagging for Image:Jeffspeakman1.gif


Thanks for uploading :Image:Jeffspeakman1.gif ↗. 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.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license ↗, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

Replaceable non-free use File:Suzie-ratcliffe.jpg


32px|left ↗
Thanks for uploading ''':File:Suzie-ratcliffe.jpg ↗'''. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use ↗. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion ↗. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have ''no free equivalent''; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

# Go to the file description page ↗ and add the text {{Tlx|Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|&lt;your reason>}} '''below''' the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <code>&lt;your reason></code> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
# On the file's talk page ↗, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license ↗, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=Dreamofthedolphin&namespace=6}} this link]</span>. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy ↗. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you. <!-- Template:di-replaceable non-free use-notice --> -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:59, 4 August 2025 (UTC)

Non-free content



Hi,

I can see from your talk page that you have had issues with non-free content ↗ for a long time. You must make sure that the images you upload meet '''all''' of the non-free content criteria ↗. Furthermore, the filling in of the non-free usage rationale ↗ isn't just an exercise in bureaucratic form filling. You must properly explain the purpose of the image and how it meets WP:NFCC#8 ↗, and why it isn't replaceable with free content to meet WP:NFCC#1 ↗. If you don;t understand these criteria, you can ask questions at Media Copyright Questions ↗, but continuing to upload non-free images that do not meet the non-free content criteria is not improving the encyclopedia. -- Whpq (talk) 19:25, 4 April 2026 (UTC)


Recent edit reversion


In this edit here ↗, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy ↗.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. <span style="color:#000E2F;padding:0 4px;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">S Philbrick</span><span style=";padding:0 4px;color:# 000;font-family: Copperplate Gothic Light">(Talk)</span> 13:04, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

:I suspect you may be mistaken. I did not reference https://jacksmusic.wordpress.com/2010/06/13/ghana-1-0-serbia-match-report-only (or any site on jacksmusic) anywhere in my edits. They all referenced www.11v11.com and news.bbc.co.uk, both of which are legit information sources. Dreamofthedolphin (talk) 06:39, 19 June 2026 (UTC)
