Upload from Flickr

	There are various tools available for quickly uploading pictures from Flickr at Commons:Flickr_files#Uploading_images. The easiest way is to simply use UploadWizard.
	The Wikimedia Commons is a collection of freely licensed images shared by all Wikimedia projects. When you upload an image to Commons, it will automatically be available here under the same filename.

Uploading a work found on Flickr

This guidance only applies to uploading a work found on Flickr created by someone else (not you).

In any image page in Flickr there is "License" section on the right hand side of the page. This section contains the copyright information which is important for you.

Flickr images have 7 different license options. There is also a public domain collection, Flickr: The Commons, uploaded by participating organizations. 2 of the 6 Creative Commons (CC) licensing options are OK here:

Flickr image info	License	License tag
Some rights reserved	Attribution	{{Cc‑by‑2.0}}
Some rights reserved	Attribution-ShareAlike	{{Cc‑by‑sa‑2.0}}
United States government work	US government work	{{PD-USGov}}, c:Category:PD-USGov license tags
No known copyright restrictions	Unclear	{{Flickr-no known copyright restrictions}} Preferably add a tag like {{PD-old-70}} or {{PD-US-expired}}.
Public domain	Public Domain Dedication (CC0)	{{Cc-zero}}
Public domain	Public Domain Work (PDM)	{{PD-old-70}}, {{PD-US-expired}}, USGov, etc An appropriate tag must be added to prevent deletion. Do not add {{CC0}} or {{PD-self}} to PDM files. (more info)
Public domain	Public Domain Work (PDM)
All rights reserved	None	NOT OK
Some rights reserved	Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs	NOT OK
Some rights reserved	Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike	NOT OK
Some rights reserved	Attribution-NonCommercial	NOT OK
Some rights reserved	Attribution-NoDerivs	NOT OK

BY means the image license requires attribution, as in an image is "BY" a certain person.

SA is for "Share Alike".

NC is for non-commercial use only and is NOT OK.

ND is no derivative works and is NOT OK.

If the image is not OK, consider asking the author to release their work under a free license such as CC-BY (Creative Commons Attribution license), or CC-BY-SA (Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike). See also Commons:VRT.

Flickr can search its images by license. Click the "see more" links for each license. See the advanced search also. The Creative Commons search options are at the bottom.

You may wish to read the Wikimedia Commons' guide to help check if the images you are uploading are permitted. Here is a list and table of old and new versions of Creative Commons licenses that are accepted at the Wikimedia Commons.

Note: For questions or comments about this upload page please go to its talk page.
