Image Tagging Image:Bls.png
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Bls.png. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Re: Help
[edit]Hi Eugene! Okay, I am going to admit, I am very confused with the copyright issues. How can I use the image with the information that I have?
- I think best solution - to upload this image in English Wikipedia with tag {{fair use in}}, and delete image from Commons.
- You could also read en:Copyright, en:Fair use and related articles for learning general ideas.
