Welcome!

Hello, Grethele, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Image copyright

Hi, I was reviewing the images you uploaded of Jonathan the dog and I saw that you noted that the images were in the public domain because they were published prior to 1924. I looked into this and found that all of the images of the various Jonathans were taken starting in the 30s and onwards. This means that they cannot be uploaded to Commons unless they're very explicitly marked with a copyright that puts them into the public domain or under a compatible Creative Commons license. As such, the images will have to be deleted unless I can find proof that they're in the public domain. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:34, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it's a non-commercial CC license, so it can't be used. It's an honest mistake. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:29, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
