Photos and copyrights

Hi Slugguitar,

It's cool that you added a photo to the Ian Gillan article, but copyrighted photos are not allowed to be added to Wikipedia. You can add any photo you want if it has been released into the public domain or released under the GFDL license (this is the license that all your text contributions are automatically released under).

If you took the photo, which I assume is the case, then you can just decide to release it under the GFDL, tag the image on the image page (see the page Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for a lengthy list of tags you can use), and you're done.

If someone else took the photo, then you'll have to get some sort of statement from them that they're releasing it under the GFDL or contributing it to the public domain, and explain it on the image's talk page and tag it accordingly.

Thanks again and welcome! Leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions, epithets, etc. Tempshill 22:27, 2 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the followup. I removed the GFDL notice from the caption in the article - it's not needed there - and was going to move it to the picture page but saw you already had it there. Thanks. Incidentally, on the article page, IMO you might want to crop the photo a bit and enlarge it and maybe up the contrast so you can see his face better.
