Re: Upload Photos
[edit]Hello , I wanna know how I can upload photos to an article. Cause when I try it says "Error that only confirmed users may upload photos". And also what photos can I upload if they can not be Copyright pics. Thank You :] —Preceding unsigned comment added by GiovyGabrielEd15 (talk • contribs) 17:31, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia!
That is a quite complex topic, I'm afraid. Wikipedia only accepts "free" pictures, that is pictures that were released under a set of free licenses (like CC-by-SA) or that are in the public domain (see WP:License#Guidelines for images and other media files). That excludes the great majority of pictures you can find on the web. You can, as far as licensing goes, upload most pictures you take yourself, and release them under whatever free license you choose. There are some exceptions on the English Wikipedia like album cover images that may be uploaded and used on very specific articles (see WP:NFC).
It's probably easier to turn the question around: What image do you want to upload?
