Template:Db-imgcopyvio-deleted
Speedy deletion of [[:{{{1}}}]]
The media file that you uploaded, [[:{{{1}}}]], has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a copyright violation and had no credible claim of fair use or permission. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the file belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.
 | If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's users and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy, as the standard installation of Twinkle adds and removes this template. Thank you! |
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Db-imgcopyvio-deleted}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |

Usage
If this template is used on a page that did not previously exist (that is, if the user receiving the warning is a new user), the template automatically includes a {{first article}} welcome message. This welcome can be turned off with the |nowelcome= parameter as described below.
Basic usage
{{subst:db-imgcopyvio-deleted|PageName}}
Where PageName is the name of the page that has been speedily deleted.
Parameters
- nowelcome:- If this parameter exists, then the {{first article}} welcome message is not included, even if the page the notice is being placed on did not previously exist.
- header:- by default, the template adds a level two section header of "Speedy deletion of PageName". To suppress the header, use
|header=no. - header-text:- a custom value for the header text.
- demo:- if you are demonstrating the template's functionality, transclude the template rather than substitute it, and use
|demo=yes. This will prevent the template from being automatically substituted by a bot. - namespace:- this is the namespace of the page that has been speedily deleted. For example, if the page is in the "Wikipedia" namespace then the value would be
Wikipedia. It is not necessary to specify this parameter if the namespace is already included in the page name. If the page is in the main article namespace then this parameter should be omitted.
Examples
- No welcome message
{{subst:db-imgcopyvio-deleted|PageName|nowelcome=yes}}
- No header
{{subst:db-imgcopyvio-deleted|PageName|header=no}}
- Using a custom header
{{subst:db-imgcopyvio-deleted|PageName|header-text=Custom header text}}
- No welcome message and a custom header
{{subst:db-imgcopyvio-deleted|PageName|nowelcome=yes|header-text=Custom header text}}
