Policy

Resources

Wikipedia takes copyright law very seriously. File description pages are tagged with the license and the source of the file. This makes it as easy as possible for readers, Wikipedians, IP addresses and creators of derivative works to know what they can and can't do with the files in our encyclopedia.

Guidelines

[edit]
  • For a file to be considered "free" under Wikipedia's Image use policy, the license must permit both commercial reuse and derivative works.
  • Wikipedia (and all Wikimedia projects) strongly prefer "free" files. Where no free file exists, it is sometimes permissible to use a non-free (copyright-protected) file under the "fair use" provision. Fair use, in the United States, is the legal right to use copyright-protected materials under certain conditions. Wikipedia has its own conditions that are more restrictive than what is legally permitted.
  • Ideally, most free files should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons instead of Wikipedia. (This enables them to be used for other Wikimedia projects in addition to Wikipedia.) Your account must be at least four days old before uploading is permitted. Commons does not allow fair use material, but non-free can still be used on the English Wikipedia under certain conditions.
  • All copyright and licensing tags should be put on a line of their own.
  • Along with a tag, specify the source or copyright holder information. Provide as much detail as possible.
  • If a file is not licensed under a standard license, please specify what the actual license states.
  • If you tag a file as requiring attribution, please specify who needs to be attributed.
  • If multiple categories apply to a file, add all that apply.

Tag lists

[edit]

The following hypertexts link to specific lists of file copyright tags.

Note: A file released under an unnamed license, or under a named license not included in the links above, may still be suitable for Wikipedia. Copyright tags indicating more general usage rights can be found in the copyright template category to which this page belongs.

File creators

Creators of files can choose any acceptable free license. They can multi-license their files under different licenses. The license must not prevent commercial reuse or derivative works.

Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
{{cc-by-sa-4.0|details}}		 This is one of several CC licenses. This version permits free use, including commercial use; requires that you be attributed as the creator; and requires that any derivative creator or redistributor of your work use the same license. The desired attribution text should be included as a parameter in the template.
Attribution
{{cc-by-4.0|details}}		 Similar to the above, but does not require that derivative works use the same license.
Free Art License {{FAL}} A copyleft license for artwork; modification and commercial use area always allowed, provided derivative works carry the same license.
Attribution {{Attribution}} The copyright holder allows anyone to use it for any purpose, provided that the copyright holder is properly attributed.
Copyrighted Free Use {{CopyrightedFreeUse-Link
 | [http://... Your website] }} 		Same as above, but attribution is not required. However, as a courtesy, you would appreciate a link back to Your website.
Public domain {{PD-self}}, {{CC0}} The creator permanently relinquishes all exclusive rights to the work.
Wikipedia {{Wikipedia-screenshot}} For screenshots of Wikipedia pages.

Tag creators

[edit]

Creators of a new file copyright tag representing a particular licence, should propose the created tag on Wikipedia talk:File copyright tags. Tag creators not familiar with how to create templates which add images to categories, please ask for assistance.

Each template should have a corresponding category that automatically contains all the files tagged with the template. On the description page for the category include the following: 

{{File template notice|name-of-the-tag}}

where name-of-the-tag is replaced with the actual name of the tag. In addition, include the template in the category Wikipedia file copyright templates by adding the following: 

<noinclude>[[Category:Wikipedia file copyright templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]</noinclude>

Generally, a work licensed under a CC tag with more requirements cannot be integrated into a work licensed under a more permissive CC license (such as integrating a CC BY-SA work into a CC BY work), unless the entire target work switches to the less permissive license.

Other Creative Commons licenses exist but are non-free for use in Wikipedia. See Non-free Creative Commons licenses for a full list and explanation.

Public domain

[edit]

Remember that most images you find on the Web are not public domain, even if they list no explicit copyright information. Images only qualify as being in the public domain if they fall under certain specific categories described below – images ineligible for copyright protection, very old works, works by certain government employees, and works where an explicit disclaimer of copyright has been made in writing by the author.

For a simple chart on US Public Domain regulations (Wikipedia servers are located in the US and fall under US guidelines) see the chart here.

  • {{PD-self}}: a statement intended to release a contributor's own work into public domain

  • {{PD-retouched-user|username}}: remarking that a previous PD work has been digitally enhanced, and re-released into public domain by a Wikipedian.
  • {{PD-author|name}}: stating that the work is released into the public domain by its author, whose name is given

Other countries

[edit]

Whenever an image is tagged using one of these tags, the image description page should also contain some rationale as to whether and why the image is presumed to be in the public domain in the U.S. and other countries.

[edit]

New Zealand government

[edit]

Publications of the New Zealand government are mostly covered by Crown copyright, which in New Zealand has a 100-year term under Section 26(3)(b) of the Copyright Act 1994. This puts most recent material out of bounds. However, there is an exception to these provisions for some documents:

  • {{PD-NZSection27}}: for works created by some New Zealand government entities, which are covered by Section 27(1) of the Copyright Act 1994 [5]. The section excludes from copyright protection the following NZ works: Bills, Acts, regulations, municipal bylaws, Hansard, select committee reports, court judgments, Royal commission reports, commission of inquiry reports, ministerial inquiry reports and statutory inquiry reports. Note that sourcing these from a third party provider that, say, annotated Acts, is dangerous – they would have copyright in those annotations, and/or copyright in a new typographical arrangement [6].

New Zealand Crown copyright used to only last 50 years, and copyright has expired for government works from 1944 or earlier. Regular copyright provisions (such as a 50-year term) apply to works by Crown entities and state-owned enterprises, not Crown copyright.

Deprecated (no longer being used)

[edit]
  • {{PD-Russia}}: Used for works that were public domain under the Russian copyright law of 1993. Obsolete as of 1 January 2008 due to new Russian legislation.

Non-free content

[edit]
Shortcuts

Copyrighted media files may be used in Wikipedia articles on a limited basis, provided they satisfy both the legal test for fair use and Wikipedia's own guidelines for non-free content, found at Wikipedia:Non-free content. Each image or audio file has a file page where any fair-use concerns must be addressed.

Please note: Copyrighted images that can reasonably be replaced by free images may not be used on Wikipedia.

For non-free content, each image page must include:

  • A copyright tag to claim fair use. Wikipedia's file upload function and wizard each help editors choose an appropriate tag. A list is below. Non-free images that meet Wikipedia's policy but do not fit into any of the categories below should use the tag {{Non-free fair use in|Article}}.
  • A statement describing the source of the media.
  • A separate "non-free use rationale" for each use in a Wikipedia article. Instructions, guidelines, samples, and templates are available at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline.
