Image Tagging Image:Image-Peir.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Image-Peir.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 you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
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 uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

- Dear Cnyborg, this, who created the content, is specified in "permission". Okay, it's german, so here is the translation: "The image has been provided for public domain by User:Eddyk75 on the english wikipedia". I will actualize the informations for you. --SToneHeaRT 18:33, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. I understand the German text, it's just that there are problems with the license. I've tagged it as a copyvio, as it's a screenshot from a copyrighted game. Cnyborg 20:59, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
- Sure, but why can the english user Eddyk75 hold the image under PD (see the link there)? Isn't it copyvio as well? --SToneHeaRT 21:50, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
- It would be a copyvio on enwiki as well, but they have fair use, which would most likely cover it so it's less og a problem there. I chose to tag it rather than delete it myself, and I see that another admin shares the opinion that it's a copyvio and has deleted it. Most game manufacturers allow the use of screenshot under certain condition, but they retain copyright to all images from the game. The exception is that some games are relased under a free license, but this is not the case with Anno 1701, and very few games are PD. Cnyborg 01:33, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
- Isn't wikimedia hosted mostly on US servers or is covered by US-law? If it is, the images can be used under "fair use" as well? Or has wikimedia to respect international laws? That would mean a smallest common denominator for all rights on images in wikimedia. --SToneHeaRT 10:05, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
editHello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called SToneHeaRT. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name SToneHeaRT~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
