This is a logo of an organization, item, or event, and is protected by copyright. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images on the English-language Misplaced Pages, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, of logos for certain uses involving identification and critical commentary may qualify as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Misplaced Pages or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Certain commercial use of this image may also be trademark infringement. See Misplaced Pages:Non-free content and Misplaced Pages:Logos.
Use of the logo here does not imply endorsement of the organization by Misplaced Pages or the Wikimedia Foundation, nor vice versa.

To the uploader:

This tag is only for use on images of logos.
This tag is not sufficient on its own. Please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
For an example fair use rationale for a logo, see here.
Template:Non-free use rationale logo may be helpful for stating the rationale.
Please do not use this template to tag non-free icons of computer software. Such items should be tagged with {{Non-free computer icon}} template.

Regarding uses other than in the original article:

A detailed non-free use rationale is required for every article the logo is used in. Check the non-free use criteria and do not assume that existing rationales can be simply copied and pasted, as they may not necessarily apply.

To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an 'appropriate' rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on approximately 157,000 pages.
To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Place this template in the file description pages of non-free logos. Do not use this template for copyright-free logos.

Transcluding this template in a file description page will automatically include the page in Category:All non-free logos. It may also be used to add one other category—see Category:Misplaced Pages images of logos for potential category options—as follows:

{{Non-free logo|Add category name here and omit the 'Category:' prefix}}

If the category name is redirected, e.g. after renaming or merging, this template will resolve the redirect i.e. put the image page in the target category rather than the redirected category.

Registered trademarks

If the image is also a registered trademark, include the regtrademark=yes parameter as shown below:

{{Non-free logo|regtrademark=yes}}

If the image is a non-registered trademark, add nonregtrademark=yes as shown below:

{{Non-free logo|nonregtrademark=yes}}
