Grand Theft Wiki has a series of policies regarding the use and reproduction of Copyright material.
You may use content on Grand Theft Wiki for research purposes. This includes looking up information for yourself, and looking up information to be used on other websites.
However, if you wish to copy content directly from Grand Theft Wiki to another website, you should ask permission first, on the Copyright discussion page.
No copyrighted content should be placed on Grand Theft Wiki unless either you own the copyright or have express written permission to use it. However, some content, such as logos, screenshots, names or short text extracts (eg quotes) may be placed if used fairly. Any quotes, text extracts or images should reference their source, unless it is obvious (eg a company logo) or generic (no identifiable author).
We believe it is fair to use screenshots of games to represent games and the characters, vehicles and locations in those games. We also believe that it is fair to use existing screenshots for that purpose, since we (by default) allow images to be reproduced elsewhere. Credit will be given where due. However, if the copyright holder wishes to dispute our use of an image, it should be discussed on the talk page for the image or this page.
Template:Screenshot:
This is a screenshot of a copyrighted computer or video game, and the copyright is most likely held by the developer of the game. For Grand Theft Auto games, the developer is Rockstar Games.
On Grand Theft Wiki, it is believed that the use of web-resolution screenshots, for identification and critical commentary on the game in question or the copyrighted characters or items depicted on the screenshot, qualifies as fair use under Copyright law, as such display does not significantly impede the right of the copyright holder to sell the copyrighted material, is not being used to generate profit in this context, and presents ideas that cannot be exhibited otherwise.
See Grand Theft Wiki:Copyright for more detail on our copyright policy.
Grand Theft Wiki will not be held liable for any misuse of content by our registered members.
If you believe a copyright has been breached, please let us know, and provide proof of the source and licence of the content. We will aim to correct the problem as soon as possible if neccessary.

This page is an official policy on Lostpedia. It has wide acceptance among editors and is considered a standard that all users should follow. When editing this page, please ensure that your revision reflects consensus. When in doubt, discuss first on the talk page. |
Lostpedia takes copyright very seriously. In order to comply with copyright laws, we ask that users respect certain rules when uploading images onto the site, and add appropriate disclaimers. Please try to use the correct template whenever adding an image - its for the good of the site!
Please tag images with a relevant copyright tag. These copyright tags allow us to acknowledge the people involved with the photography, and is fair use. When in doubt do not upload an image.
Always try to use the description page to specify where it come from, (including episode of TV show or video podcast) and acknowledge the copyright holder of the image.
Fair Use means while we can use various images, including screencaps/screenshots from episodes, they are only to be used to illustrate the contents within an article. Galleries are not covered under this fair use remit.
For example, two images showing similar scenes, from wider or different angles are not needed on the same page. Just one of these images would be needed to illustrate the content within the article. Images that do not relate to the content are therefore, against fair use.
Avoid replacing pictures with others of lesser resolution. When HD-quality pictures are available (720p and up), smaller pictures must not replace them. The only exception to this rule is if these pictures are promotional stills.
There are several templates available that allow you to tag images you upload to Lostpedia with the correct copyright information. Because in particular screencaps/screenshots of the show belong to ABC/Touchstone, we must make it clear that they own the image on the screen, and we are making use of "Fair Use" law within the United States (where Lostpedia is hosted) to allow us to use these to illustrate our articles. Lostpedia currently has a good relationship with ABC/Touchstone Pictures and Bad Robot Productions, and marking images with the correct copyright information is our way of showing good will back to the people who bring us the show we love.
This image is a screenshot of a copyrighted television program, video podcast or station ID. As such, the copyright for it is most likely owned by the company or corporation that produced it. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Lostpedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. For more information, see Fair use.
To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
Add {{Tv-screenshot}}. This copyright template is designed for use on any screenshots used of LOST, the LOST DVDs or any other material directly relating to video from the TV show or any of its spin-offs, including the LOST Experience.
This is a logo of a television station, network, corporation, or other organization, and is protected by copyright and/or trademark. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of logos to illustrate the television station, network, corporation, or other organization in question on the English-language Lostpedia, hosted on servers in the United States, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Certain commercial use of this image may also be trademark infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Logos.
Use of the logo here does not imply endorsement of the organization by Lostpedia, nor does it imply endorsement of Lostpedia by the organization.
To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
Add {{Tv-logo}}. This copyright template is designed for use on any TV company logo that is used on the site. This includes any International broadcasters of the show.
This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.
The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.
It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of promotional material
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other uses of this image, on Lostpedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Copyrights for more information.
To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
Add {{Promotional}}. Promotional photographs of the show or actors released by ABC, or the actors themselves, designed to promote LOST or the actor themselves via an image portfolio. Most of the images marked promotional will come from ABC Medianet [1]. Each image should have individual copyright applied in this case, via the summary options when uploading.

This is a general copyright template. The user who uploaded the corresponding file is unsure what copyright tag should be added, and so is using this box to flag to other users that this image needs sorting by someone with more understanding of US laws and fair use. This page will have accurate licensing shortly.
To the uploader: thank you for identifying this image as one that needs licensing added. It shall be resolved soon.Add {{Unclassified}}. This flags the image file to other users that you are unsure what copyright template to add. This is perfectly fine, and others will see to it. Just the fact that you haven't simply left the file empty is enough.
