[WikiEN-l] Grandmother copyrighted anonymous works

[Akash Mehta]

I believe its assumed that you are either the owner of the copyright as
uploader (in which case you would tag the image as such) or the owner of the
copyright is listed (unless it is in the public domain, although it should
be listed anyway), as the author may be different from the copyright owner
(professional photographers working for a business?).
