The Armidale School photos

How did you get the rights to all the images of The Armidale School that you uploaded? —C.Fred (talk) 02:36, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

C.Fred (talk) Hello. I am a staff member at The Armidale School and took some of the images myself while others are from the school's archives and used with permission. I am a new user on Wikipedia. RegardsHughestr (talk) 04:01, 5 May 2016 (UTC) Hughestr[reply]

If it's an image you took yourself (unless you did it on the job and your employer claims the rights to your work), then you can license the images under a free license: it's within your own power to give your work away.

If they're images from the school's archives, it's a trickier matter. First, you need to make sure the authorship credit shows that it's not your own work. Then the question is the license. If you have the authority to donate the image and choose to do so, you can upload it under a free license. If you do not have the authority or choose not to donate the image, then the much stricter criteria for use of non-free content must be followed, which limit how and where such images may be used on Wikipedia.

Two important things to remember: if you have the authority to place an image under a free license and do so, then it is irrevocably under the free license. Also, an image under a free license is free for any reuse, including commercial reuse. —C.Fred (talk) 18:03, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to The Armidale School, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Gab4gab (talk) 13:22, 10 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
