Template:File Source

Thanks for uploading [[:{{{1}}}]]. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the source specifying who owns the copyright to the file is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0|author=(desired attribution)}} can be used to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags/Non-free. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Non-free content) then the image will be deleted 7 days after ~~~~. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?
