There seem to be many images used on this wiki without permission from the author. For example, [https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/File:Giant_preview.jpg this image of a giant] is taken from VegasMike on [https://www.deviantart.com/vegasmike/art/Thump-189089464 Deviantart], even though the he hasn't released it under a Creative Commons licence or similar. Another example, [https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/File:Ogre_with_goblin.png this image of an ogre with a goblin] is stolen from Wildweasel339 on [https://www.deviantart.com/wildweasel339/art/Goblin-Ogre-179846688 Deviantart]. | There seem to be many images used on this wiki without permission from the author.

− | Oddly enough, one cannot make comments on a Steam mod page, unless one also has the relevant game (dunno what you might've been expecting, Tanamoril), so Psychedelic Coffee's Steam [https://steamcommunity.com/id/Psychedelic_Coffee | profile] has been pinged, instead.

Comment: btw when adding\updating image info, please add\link artist info there, if you aren't already. I usually put full info on the image page (even if I don't have to, like with PD), including a link to image source and artist profile if available. IMO its good common courtesy practice, it make easier to find the artist if you like their work for example, which could translate into a little more exposure for them as small token of appreciation for using their work. --[[User:Jan|Jan]] ([[User talk:Jan|talk]]) 23:22, 11 February 2022 (UTC) | Comment: btw when adding\updating image info, please add\link artist info there, if you aren't already.

I would suggest adding a simpler version of [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:No_license_since Template:No license], and auto tagging all problematic files and new files that hasn't been uploaded without sufficient license. If the uploader can't resolve the issue in allotted time (month?) use AWB to auto tag for deletion and removing them from articles. Otherwise your going to get swamped. --[[User:Jan|Jan]] ([[User talk:Jan|talk]]) 19:54, 16 February 2022 (UTC) | I would suggest adding a simpler version of [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:No_license_since Template:No license], and auto tagging all problematic files and new files that hasn't been uploaded without sufficient license.
