Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

About the Removal of 2 Images from 2022 Fifa World Cup and Fifa World Cup Final

The images weren't credited to the uploader, but the Original copyright holder as shown by the Wikipedia itself. Anzaan Annex (talk) 14:30, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Giving credit isn't sufficient, you need to have rights to freely re-distribute the work, which I don't believe you have. Getty Images expect to get paid for that work, so by uploading and giving others the rights to reuse, you are depriving them of that. Spike 'em (talk) 14:45, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the Reply.

I have a question. What about the other ones that are free to use, similar to the one I posted?

And how do I know beforehand that those are free to circulate for editorial reasons? Anzaan Annex (talk) 15:43, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
