- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset

Good luck!
Image Tagging Image:Livingstondonald.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Livingstondonald.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 21:50, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- I see you have removed the "no source" tag from the image description page, but you still have not provided the source for the image. I have reinstated the "no source" tag. It should remain on the image description page until a source is given. If you need help or have any questions, please let me know. —Bkell (talk) 03:20, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- The source is Donald Livingston, and he released it into the public domain. —Rsetliff 07:33, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- By now the image has been deleted. If you would like to upload the image again, you are welcome to do so, but please make sure to specify the source and licensing information on the image description page itself (an easy way to do this is to give this information in the summary when you upload the image). Let me know if you need help or have any questions. —Bkell (talk) 09:26, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Rsetliff.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Rsetliff.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:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:09, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
