Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 22:25, 19 May 2008

Summary

Seal of the Chickasaw Nation. This image was converted electronically from a PDF to an SVG by User:kotra. The Chickasaw Nation presumably retains the copyright on this image. Permission for use of the Chickasaw seal can be granted by the Chickasaw Tribal Legislature (according to ). However, permission is unnecessary as this logo is believed to qualify as Fair Use for use on articles mainly about the Chickasaw Nation because it:

• illustrates the main topic of the article,
• is not replaceable (except by a similarly copyrighted flag image), and
• does not misrepresent the seal by using only a portion of the image.

This image was previously incorrectly tagged with {{pd-self}}

Licensing

This logo is an official seal of a governmental entity or one of its government agencies, and may be subject to copyright, trademark, and/or other restrictions on its reproduction, especially in commercial contexts. The copyright is likely held by the government or agency in question. It is believed that the use of images of seals to illustrate the government or agency in question on the English-language Misplaced Pages, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Misplaced Pages or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Use of this seal here does not imply endorsement by Misplaced Pages or the Wikimedia Foundation, nor does it imply endorsement of Misplaced Pages or the Wikimedia Foundation by the organization. See Misplaced Pages:Non-free content and Misplaced Pages:Logos for more information. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/File:Chickasaw_seal.svg true

To the uploader: Please add a detailed non-free use rationale for each article the image is used in, which must also declare compliance with the other parts of the non-free content criteria, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For example non-free use rationales, see Misplaced Pages:Use rationale examples. This tag should only be used for seals. Do not use it for other purposes. To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an appropriate rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

This image does not meet Misplaced Pages's non-free content policy. The image needs a separate fair-use rationale for each article that links to (or names) the article it is used in. An explanation of how to do this can be found at Misplaced Pages:Non-free use rationale guideline – the easiest way to add a fair-use rationale is with a template such as {{non-free use rationale}}. If this is not fixed within a week, the image will be removed from any articles without a proper rationale, and may be deleted. Please remove this tag once the problem is fixed. Administrators: Check the image talk page for comments before deleting this file. This image does not have an adequate rationale for the following article(s): Gallery of Native American flags and seals
