{{policy}}
All images should be tagged with information about their copyright/licensing status and source. It is '''illegal''' for us to use images on '''OrthodoxWiki''' for which we do not have permission or which are not usable under the [[Wikipedia:Fair use#Fair use under United States law|fair use provisions of United States copyright law]]. Images which do not conform to policy are subject to immediate deletion. Merely noting the image's source is '''not enough'''. There must be verifiable permission given for OrthodoxWiki's use of the image. It is '''your responsibility''' as the uploader to ensure that the image may be used and is tagged as properly licensed. ==How to include the tag==When you upload the image, there is a "Summary" box in which you can put the tags. Additionally, you can go to the image's description page—either by clicking on an image in an entry or by going to the description link included after you upload the image—then click the "edit" tab at the top of the page, and add in the appropriate information. Here are some tags that can be included for images, followed by the notice that will be included:
==License Templates==
===Public Domain===
:<nowiki>{{pd}} </nowiki> for images in the public domandomain (note that there are '''[[w:Wikipedia:Public domain|specific conditions]]''' for declaring a work in the public domain; finding it on the Internet doesn't count!):</nowiki><br>
{{pd}}
 
 
===GNU FDL===
{{cc by-sa}}
:<nowiki>{{cc by-nc-nd}} for images released under the Creative Commons License Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0 or later:</nowiki>{{cc by-nc-nd}}
===Unverified===
:<nowiki>{{skete.com}} for images from</nowiki> [http://www.skete.com/ Skete.com]:
{{skete.com}}
 
===Wikimedia Commons===
All images imported from [[commons:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]] should be stamped with the <nowiki>{{commons}}</nowiki> tag, regardless of copyright. This helps us identify the source if need be. Relevant copyright information (e.g. another image license tag) should also be included along with this template.
{{commons}}
===Library of Congress===
For images imported from the Library of Congress Photo Archive that are thought to be in the public domain.
{{loc}}
===Government Images===
{{stub}}
