License for File:{{{1}}}
[మార్చు][[File:{{{1}}}|200px|right|Your Image:{{{1}}}]]
The image [[:File:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] is a candidate to be copied to the Wikimedia Commons. When you uploaded this image, you licensed it for use under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). On behalf of the Wikipedia and Commons communities, thank you.
You also chose a license tag which adds disclaimers to the GFDL. As explained at Wikipedia:GFDL standardization, these disclaimers cause certain re-use problems that make the GFDL less free than it could be.
Before I copy this image to the Commons, I wanted to ask whether you would be willing to remove the disclaimers from your GFDL tag. No one other than you may legally alter the license. If you do choose to modify the license on this image, I respectfully recommend any of the following best-practices license tags:
- {{GFDL}}
- {{GFDL-self}}
- {{GFDL-user}} using the syntax
{{GFDL-user|YOURUSERNAME}} - {{self}} multilicense using the syntax
{{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-3.0}}
You are under no obligation whatsoever to alter the license. Doing so merely cooperates with those members of the community who believe that disclaimers in individual media are undesirable. Wikipedia consensus still allows GFDL licenses with disclaimers, as does the Commons.
Whether or not you choose to remove the disclaimers, thank you for your consideration.

{{License disclaimer notice}} provides a vehicle to request that an individual editor remove GFDL disclaimers from a specific image that he/she has uploaded. This applies only to:
- Editors who have uploaded images with a GFDL license tag that includes disclaimers (for example {{GFDL-self-with-disclaimers}}).
- Images that are genuinely free use, not public domain, properly copyrighted by the English Wikipedia uploader, licensed under the GFDL, and meet any other criteria to be moved to the Wikimedia Commons. (If there is any question about any of these concerns, resolve it before using this template.)
- Images that you (the editor employing this template) are in the process of moving, or about to move, to the Commons.
Best practice suggests that you wait several days after using this template before proceeding to copy the image to the Commons. This gives the uploading editor an opportunity to see, consider, and act on the request.
This template does not add any categories to the page it's placed on.
Usage
[మార్చు]- This template is always placed on the talk page of the editor who uploaded the image in question. Do not include a section headline, since the template generates one itself.
- This template must always be substituted in order to avoid altering pre-existing discussions on a user's talk page as the template is modified in the future.
- This template takes a single parameter: The name of the image that (a) is licensed with disclaimers and (b) you plan to copy to the commons. The parameter is entered without square brackets and without the namespace prefix (i.e. without "Image:").
- Use the following syntax when placing this template on a user's talk page:
{{subst:License disclaimer notice|IMAGE NAME}}or use the shorthand redirect:{{subst:ldn|IMAGE NAME}} - Do not sign with four tildes (~~~~). The template signs for you automatically.
- In addition, consider adding the image to your watchlist, in order to provide a quick way for you to know when/if the uploading editor modifies the license tag.
