Missing file information

Hello! And thanks for your upload - but some extra info is necessary.

Sorry for bothering you about this, but it is important to know source of the uploaded files.

Are you the author of image File:AccessBridleway.png ?

Or is it copied from some other place (which one?)?

Please, add this info to the file page - something like "I took this photo" or "downloaded from -website link-" or "I took this screeshot of program XYZ".

In case that you are the author of the image: Would you agree to open licensing of this image, allowing its use by anyone (similarly to your OSM edits)?

Would you be OK with CC0 (it allows use without attribution or any other requirement)?

Or do you prefer to require attribution and some other things using CC-BY-SA-4.0?

If you are the author: Please add {{CC0-self}} to the file page to publish the image under CC0 license.

You can also use {{CC-BY-SA-4.0-self}} to publish under CC-BY-SA-4.0 license.

Feel free to ask for help if you need it - you can do it for example by asking on Talk:Wiki: new topic.

Please ask there if you are not sure what is the proper next step. Especially when you are uploading files that are not your own work or are derivative work (screenshots, composition of images, using aerial imagery etc).

Once you add missing data - please remove {{Unknown|subcategory=uploader notified January 2022}} from the file page.

Hi Mateusz, When I added the files 11½ years ago I put a note on them that I did not own the copyright. They were just uploaded for demonstration purposes on the Talk:Public_rights_of_way_in_England_and_Wales page. I also put a note on that page to say that if they were used on the main Wiki page they would probably need to remade with an open licence. Here's a link to the updated version on the UK government website https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1014038/countryside-code-summary.pdf

I hoped that either you are in position where you can influence licncing (I know, it was really unlikely) or can locate some replacement or Kent County Council used open license. Would you be fine with editing that talk page and replacing image by text description or some symbols? Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 02:57, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
