Description
This tool makes it easy to reuse images from Wikipedia and the free media archive Wikimedia Commons. In many cases images on Wikipedia and the free media archive Wikimedia Commons are protected by copyright. However most of them have been released under free licenses by their rights holders, especially under Creative Commons licenses. Some are even free of any rights, in the public domain. Free licenses facilitate an easy re-use as long as the respective license requirements are honoured. An additional permission from rights holders is then not necessary. This tool is designed to help comply with the license conditions and simplify the use of freely licensed content. The tool automatically compiles all relevant license information in to a so-called license notice that has to be published or displayed as closely to the image as reasonably possible (depending on the publication type the license notice can also be placed at another common position e.g. within picture credits in a book or in the opening or final credits of a video).
