This image is in the public domain because under the Copyright law of the United States, originality of expression is necessary for copyright protection, and a mere photograph of an out-of-copyright two-dimensional work may not be protected under American copyright law. The official position of the Wikimedia Foundation is that all reproductions of public domain works should be considered to be in the public domain regardless of their country of origin (even in countries where mere labor is enough to make a reproduction eligible for protection).

This image is in the public domain in the United States. In most cases, this means that it was first published prior to January 1, 1930 (see the template documentation for more cases). Other jurisdictions may have other rules, and this image might not be in the public domain outside the United States. See Wikipedia:Public domain and Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details.

PD-USPublic domain in the United States//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_index/File_namespace
This image is a representation of an award or decoration of the U.S. military, created by the military or the Department of Defense. As works of the U.S. federal government, such images are in the public domain in the United States. Under American copyright law, originality of expression is necessary for copyright protection, and a mere photograph of an out-of-copyright work may not be protected under American copyright law. However, images of these awards created by individuals who are not employees of the U.S. government acting in the course of their duties are protected by copyright and cannot be tagged with this template.
The NASA website hosts a large number of images from the Soviet/Russian space agency, and other non-American space agencies. These are not in the public domain.
PD-PolandPublic domain in Poland//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_index/File_namespace
This file is NOT necessarily in the public domain in the United States because a non-simple image can only be in the public domain in the U.S.:
if it entered the public domain in Poland prior to 1996, or
when, after that date, its copyright term expires in accordance with U.S. law.
Information about the creation date and creator should be provided.
If the image is not in the public domain in the United States, in addition to the license tag for its status in Poland an appropriate fair use license and rationale should be provided, or the image should be proposed for deletion.
If the media is in the public domain in both Poland and the United States, it may be transferred to the Wikimedia Commons.
Note: If this image is in the public domain in the U.S., modify the end of the copyright tag from }} to |commons}}. This will replace the preceding U.S. copyright notification with a nomination for this image to be moved to the Wikimedia Commons.
According to the Polish Copyright Law Act of February 4, 1994, (Article 4, cases 4.1 and 4.2) the "governmental symbols, documents, materials and signs are not subject to copyrights". Hence it is assumed that this image has been released into the public domain. However, in some instances the use of this image in Poland might be regulated by other laws.

Unless the copyright status of the text of this page or section is clarified and determined to be compatible with Wikipedia's content license, the problematic text and revisions or the entire page may be deleted one week after the time of its listing.
What can I do to resolve the issue?
If you hold the copyright to this text, you can license it in a manner that allows its use on Wikipedia.
To confirm your permission, you can either display a notice to this effect at the site of original publication or send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org or a postal letter to the Wikimedia Foundation. These messages must explicitly permit use under CC BY-SA and the GFDL. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Note that articles on Wikipedia must be written from a neutral point of view and must be verifiable in published third-party sources; consider whether, copyright issues aside, your text is appropriate for inclusion in Wikipedia.
Otherwise, you may rewrite this page without copyright-infringing material. Your rewrite should be placed on this page, where it will be available for an administrator or clerk to review it at the end of the listing period. Follow this link to create the temporary subpage. Please mention the rewrite upon completion on this article's discussion page.
Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.)
For license compliance, any content used from the original article must be properly attributed; if you use content from the original, please leave a note at the top of your rewrite saying as much. You may duplicate non-infringing text that you had contributed yourself.
It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Wikipedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.
Add the following to the bottom of Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2025 May 29: * {{subst:article-cv|Wikipedia:Template index/File namespace}} from {{{url}}}. ~~~~
Add the following template to the talk page of the contributor of the material: {{subst:Nothanks-web|pg=Wikipedia:Template index/File namespace|url={{{url}}}}} ~~~~
Place {{copyvio/bottom}} at the end of the portion you want to blank. If nominating the entire page, please place this template at the top of the page, set the "fullpage" parameter to "yes", and place {{copyvio/bottom}} at the very end of the article.
