You have claimed to be the author of the files listed below. If you have uploaded a copyright violation and the copyright holder wishes to take legal action, you alone are legally responsible. The Mediawiki software keeps information about you which may be shared with lawyers.

Files with doubtful claims of authorship may be deleted, and if you continue to upload files with doubtful claims of authorship, your account may be blocked to allow others to investigate your authorship and licensing claims.

Please help avoid unnecessary blocks and deletions by resolving this matter in one of the following ways:

  • If the works are indeed your own, please upload high-resolution original files (rather than images scaled down to "web resolution") and clearly label the source of the files as being your own work. Again, you are solely responsible for such claims.
  • If any of the files you have uploaded are not your own work despite your previous claims, please tag them with {{db-author}}, and they will be deleted by an administrator.

If your account is blocked, you will be unable to edit Wikipedia. In the meantime, please read the copyright policy to make sure the content you upload is allowed. The duration of the block may depend on the number of files to be verified and the findings of the investigation.

The template is used on user talk pages for users who have made questionable claims of authorship when uploading content to Wikipedia.
