Copyrighted media files may be used in Wikipedia articles on a limited basis, provided they satisfy both the legal test for fair use and Wikipedia's own guidelines for non-free content, found at Wikipedia:Non-free content. Each image or audio file has a file page where any fair-use concerns must be addressed.

Please note: Copyrighted images that can reasonably be replaced by free images may not be used on Wikipedia.

For non-free content, each image page must include:

  • A copyright tag to claim fair use. Wikipedia's file upload function and wizard each help editors choose an appropriate tag. A list is below. Non-free images that meet Wikipedia's policy but do not fit into any of the categories below should use the tag {{Non-free fair use in|Article}}.
  • A statement describing the source of the media.
  • A separate "non-free use rationale" for each use in a Wikipedia article. Instructions, guidelines, samples, and templates are available at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline.

Promotional material

  • {{Non-free promotional}}—for an image freely provided to promote an item, as in a promotional photo in a press packet

Fair use on Wikipedia only applies if it is not possible to replace such publicity image with a free image.

සංස්කරණය

සැකිල්ල:Disputed-section

  • {{Non-free Crown copyright}}—For material under UK Crown copyright (Crown copyright in other countries has different restrictions). This only applies to some content on some web sites. It's not a carte blanche to use anything. See the talk page for a list of web sites that will allow some use — and check the copyright notice first as they are all different. It is the express opinion of HM Stationery Office that Crown Copyright is incompatible with the GFDL — contact the Epopt for details. For works where UK Crown copyright has expired, use {{PD-BritishGov}} instead. Please note that as commercial distribution is not permitted this license is non-free for the purposes of Wikipedia, hence images uploaded under this template must still specify a rationale.
  • {{Non-free Parliamentary copyright}} - for material under UK Parliamentary copyright. Please note that as commercial distribution is not permitted this license is non-free for the purposes of Wikipedia, hence images uploaded under this template must still specify a rationale.
  • {{Non-free restricted use}}—formerly used for:
    • Non-free images and audio samples which are contended to be fair use. Replace this tag either with {{Non-free fair use in|Article}} or with another of the tags above.
    • Media for which we have permission, and US fair use also applies. You should also describe as much as possible about the permission including who from and conditions. Replace this tag with either {{Non-free fair use in|Article}} or with another of the tags above, and also add {{Non-free with permission}}.
