Forum:Original Image Licensing?

One of the old editors created an image and to the Narutopedia. The editor has basically dissapeared, and when they uploaded it they didn't tag it with any specific licensing templates. Because of what is stated in the edit box, since they didn't specify a license when they uploaded it it would be licensed under the GFDL, right? or would it be PD? I need to figure out what to use because I'm changing arround the stub templates with one shared by bot between the Wikia in the Wikia Anime Project and because of that the stub images all half to have the same name. So I need to convert that file to a .png and upload it to Stub.png on the Narutopedia, but when I do that I need to know if I should use  or. Dantman (Talk) 23:02, 24 February 2007 (UTC)


 * As every page on every Wikia states that all content is in the GFDL, it probably can be assumed that unless otherwise stated (or proven), that the uploader intended it to be in the GFDL (some disagree with this, but it is convenient). If you require more clarity, you might create a template with text saying something like "This file was uploaded prior to enforcement of license declaration, but was an original piece by the uploader, therefor it is assumed to be in the GFDL". --Splarka (talk) 23:32, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
