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?).

If the original author doesn't care about attribution, or their rights as photographer, or what happens to the image, then get them to assign the copyright to someone else in a deed. Then the other person can do whatever they want with the image, since they own the copyright.
Copyright assignment might work. But is the listed source supposed to be the author or the copyright holder? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@Wikipedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
