Maps

What is the source of the aerial imagery for your maps? Imzadi 1979 → 22:08, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you don't want to add maps to the infobox the way you are doing so. You're adding them as thumbnails, which breaks the infobox. You're also not adding them with a caption |map_notes=. Imzadi 1979 → 01:21, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As I suspected, you've used screen shots from Google Maps. While the underlying aerial/satellite imagery is public domain, there are other elements visible that are subject to Google's copyrights. All of those maps have been tagged for deletion on Commons. Imzadi 1979 → 02:11, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To answer your request on Imzadi's page

You aren't going to get blocked for an honest mistake. You simply need to replace the image with one that does not contain copyrighted information. Buffs (talk) 22:33, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
