Hello,
I hope this is the right place to ask, if not please excuse.
All files uploaded to MediaWiki.org must be available under a free license (no "fair use" or "noncommercial"). What we do with files with unclear copyright status (no license, no author, etc.) such as:
* https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:Scott_profile_pic.jpeg * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:EMWCon_Spring_2016_Mediawiki_in_the_Ente... * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:3d_extension_screenshot.png * a lot of other
Nominating for deletion? Per the intro at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Upload such files must be deleted.
We have {{Unknown copyright}} template, but it seems that nobody is working on it?
Best, --Steinsplitter
E.g. reuse of content from Wikipedia: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:QuickSurveys-Desktop.png From Wikivoyage: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:Banner_example.png Screenshot of proprietary software: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:07-wikitech-phpstorm-deployment.png On Commons they'd have been speedily deleted, while on mediawiki.org no one cares.

That's not true, It's a project I plan to work on shortly (just need to finish a few other things first).
And it's not a simple case of just hitting delete on everything.
There are hundreds of files in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Files_with_unknown_copyright_status
Likely they schould be nominated after one week or moor automatically for deletion (using parser function). Then a human can review it and press delete.
Likely Template:Information schould be preloaded at Special:Upload (similar to commons), so we would also have machine readable data for files.

Why not move them to Commons after review? They'd benefit from all the goods, not only Information template but also categories etc.

I'm trying to fix the ones I've uploaded, but the {{Mediawiki screenshot}} template is not in mediawiki.org.
Is just adding a license like {{cc-by-sa-4.0}} enough?
