GuildWiki:Image attribution project

Currently, all images on the GuildWiki lack attribution. This is a problem, as it means that we are generally violating copyright law with every single one. This project exists to coordinate attribution efforts in a single place.

What images are allowed?
The image use policy states which images are allowed to be uploaded. However, since this policy does not really deal with copyright, improving it to be more explicit certainly falls under the scope of this project.

How can I help?
This is a massive undertaking, and there are many ways you can assist.

Templates
Templates for common attribution cases would be very helpful in speeding up this project's work. These include (but are not limited to):


 * Template:Unattributed image for images that lack attribution entirely. This template includes Category:Unattributed images.
 * Template:Copyvio for images that clearly are disallowed on the GuildWiki for license reasons. Pages marked can be found at the listing Category:Suspected copyright violations.
 * Template:Public domain image for images that are released under the public domain in the United States. This template probably need some parameters, like original source, reason it's public domain, etc.
 * Template:Copyleft image for images that are allowed to be used on the GuildWiki because of their licenses. This template probably need some parameters, like original source, reason it's public domain, etc.
 * Template:User-created image for images that our users themselves have created and released under our Creative Commons license. This template needs some parameters like the username.
 * Template:Fair-use image for images that we use under fair use and why this image is fair-use. Separate templates, like Template:Guild Wars screen capture and Template:Fansite kit image might be based upon this template.

Of course, you're welcome to name these whatever you like -- if Wikipedia has templates to fill these purposes, you're welcome to port them over. Any templates helpful to this project should be listed here.

Botwork
Currently, many images have no text at all. A bot could add an unattributed image template to every image page with no text at all. That would give us a starting point for doing manual, human labor.

Attribution
Naturally, this is the meat of the project. Once an unattributed image category is created and populated, people should feel free to claim part of that category and begin either attributing images or flagging them as copyvios.

Any user can list their name and a statement of which images they're working with ("I'm taking Abaddon's Mouth.jpg through Battle Stance.png") below.
