User talk:Sourcecode
Hello Sourcecode and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
Fred Durst photo
Hi there, Sourcecode! Can you please tell me how you determined that the image Image:Fred-Durst.jpg is in the public domain? I can't see any mention of it at the site you mentioned [1]. Thanks! --Diberri | Talk 14:58, Sep 12, 2004 (UTC)
- Contrary to popular belief, an author (or photographer, artist, etc.) does not have to explicitly copyright his/her work in order for it to be copyrighted. That is, copyright is implied unless the work is expressly placed in the public domain. So unless you can find a notice that the image is in the public domain (or is already licensed under the GFDL), Image:Fred-Durst.jpg cannot be used on Wikipedia. --Diberri | Talk 16:09, Sep 12, 2004 (UTC)
I have added Image:On-The-Road-manuscript.jpg to Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images. As Diberri noted above, the absence of a copyright notice does not necessarily mean the image is in the public domain. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 20:15, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
