Thanks for uploading File:LA Bethell 1881 Census.pdf. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too.

- I am prepared to accept deletion - this item has become unnecessary.
- As a general point though - I don't know how to set the copyright on it, even though I believe it to be copyright free. The data is UK Government data, available to the puiblic on UK Open Government licence.The Gazette is public data even when it is new - and actually this page is over 100 years old !

- If you can provide a source that shows the photograph fell under Crown Copyright, I'll fix the file myself and I can withdraw the DR. Abzeronow (talk) 16:57, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
- I have this from the London Gazette website, https://www.thegazette.co.uk -
