I don't know what to post here, but the red is giving me OCD, so I'll just post this here. Can't wait until my draft gets seen.
Non-free image use

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload files. However, it appears that one or more of the files you have uploaded or added to a page, specifically User:ICorrectThings/sandbox , may fail our non-free policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted file of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:27, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- HiICorrectThings. The licensing of each media file you see used on Wikipedia is determined by it copyright status and not every file you see on Wikipedia is licensed the same. Some files are licensed as public domain or licensed under a free licensed suitable for Wikipedia and these are often collectively referred to as "free images". Other files are licensed as non-free content because of their copyright status and these files are commonly referred to as "non-free". Non-free content use on Wikipedia is highly restricted and each use of such files must satisfy Wikipedia's non-free image use policy. One of these restrictions is WP:NFCC#9, which says that non-free content can only be used in the article namespace. For this reason and as explained in WP:UP#Non-free files, non-free content such as File:Gravity Falls - Not What He Seems.png cannot be used in User:ICorrectThings/sandbox. I left an edit sums explaining why I removed the non-free file from the sandbox the previous times, but you subsequently re-added it. So, I'm posting this here to provide more explanation. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask them here, at WP:MCQ or at WT:NFC, but please don't re-add the file to the sanbox again. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:29, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
