BushProtest.jpg

I uploaded below image which I found in flickr, I know flickr images can be uploaded to wikipedia provided they are attributed, but I am not sure which licensing tag is appropriate. Could you kindly check and fix this NëŧΜǒńğer^{Peace Talks} 17:55, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:BushProtest.jpg

I don't think that all Flickr images can be uploaded to Wikipedia. Although many (maybe even most) images on Flickr are posted under a Creative Commons license, allowing them to be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, this particular one seems to be copyrighted (look under the "Additional information" section on the right side of the screen here). Compare that with, for instance, this photo licensed under Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 2.0 License and this one licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 License. (Note: both of those images are already uploaded to Wikimedia Commons.)

So, I don't think the Bush protest images qualifies as "fair use" per Wikipedia's non-free content requirements unless the event depicted in the image is somehow historically significant or is specifically discussed in the article's text (both of which seem unlikely). Image copyright is not my strongest suit, but I'm fairly confident about this one. You may want to double-check at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. I hope that helps.

Thaks for dealing with it. I ran into that template reverting some silly page creations by a friend of the template's creator (I assume). Since I don't have much template experience I figured I'd nominate it for TfD and see where it went. I'll tag similar ones for speedy deletion in the future. Cheers!
