Images and Copyright
Uploading a new image
Please make sure that we have permission to use the image. When using WikiMedia Commons, check all the copyright information to confirm it is OK to use.
When uploading onto the WikiVet website, put the 'Image sourced from original author and year if available, Wikimedia Commons' or other relevant copyright information in the SUMMARY BOX.
Use the words 'All rights reserved' only when uploading an image taken by someone who has given us permission to use it on WikiVet but doesn't want the image used elsewhere. The content of WikiVet is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 License unless otherwise specified.
So, the acknowledgements table that is added underneath each image (when the image is already uploaded) or in the summary box when uploading a new image, needs to include the following information:
Source: Where the image was originally sourced from eg. WikiMedia Commons/RVC/Webpage/Owner if sourced directly Author: As many details as are given by the source - ideally name and date
Where copyright permission is granted to use an image on WikiVet but NOT to distribute it under a Creative Commons license (i.e. so that we can use it, but it can not be redistributed), the table also needs to include a third row of information:
Rights: All rights reserved
For all images taken from a Creative Commons source, all rights are NOT reserved, as they can be repurposed as previously stated.
Information below the picture on the 'disease' page
It is good practice to provide the copyright information there too but it isn't sufficient on its own. (See below)
Correcting current copyright information
Copyright information must be available on the actual file page of the image, i.e. when you click on the image and it shows its full size. If it is not there, you must put it at least below the image by clicking on the 'edit' tab and inserting the information there. You must then make note of the file for either Chris or Barbora to protect the file from future editing. This is not essential when the information is available in the summary/comment box next to the upload information of the file.
