Lo permitido en Commons

Puedes subir obras que tú has creado completamente. Eso incluye fotos y videos de:

• • paisajes naturales, animales, plantas
  • personalidades públicas y personas fotografiadas en lugares públicos (sólo con el consentimiento en algunos casos, según las normas locales)
• useful or non-artistic objects

You may also upload original graphs, maps, diagrams, and audio.

What is not allowed on Commons

Commons can’t accept work created by or based on the work of others – including photographs of it. By default, you can’t upload someone else’s work. This includes material such as:

• logos
• CD/DVD covers
• promotional photos
• screenshots of TV shows, movies, DVDs, and software
• drawings of characters from comics, TV, or movies – even if you drew them
• most pictures published on the internet

However, there are some exceptions

• You can upload someone else’s work if the author granted permission for anyone to use, copy, modify, and sell it – by releasing it under a free license. (Be sure to provide a link to the source, where the license is stated.)
• You can upload someone else’s work if it is in the public domain (usually very old works).
• You can upload your photographs of public domain works, such as old buildings, statues, and art.
