The Wikipede and the Picture Tutorial. (image credit)

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...

...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process - at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi IP 49.146.9.243. I believe you may be correct regarding the licensing of that image, but for future reference you should replaced the non-free use rationale previously added for the file with Template:Information because a PD image doesn't really require a non-free use rationale. There are WP:BOTs, in addition to editors, that check file pages for errors and the combination of a non-free use rationale template and a PD copyright license template may cause the file to be mistakenly tagged with {{Wrong license}}. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:30, 26 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
