Note: This list is quite old and incomplete.
Please use the UntaggedImages tool which works on a live copy of the database. See meta:User:Duesentrieb/UntaggedImages for more information. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 19:04, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

This pages lists images that do not contain any template. It is intended to find images that have no copyright info. Please help to go through this list and handle each image as appropriate:

  • If an image has no source specified, add {{no source}}, or preferably, {{no source since|month=July|day=5|year=2009}}.
  • If the source is given, but the copyright status cannot be determined, add {{unknown}}, or preferably, {{no license|month=July|day=5|year=2009}}.
  • If you can determine the copyright status, add the appropriate copyright tag.

In any case, please tell the uploader to add copyright and other info to the image. It would be kind to wait some time for a response before deleting the image, especially for images that are marked as (recent). For images that are marked as (old), we may be a little more impatient.

You may use Template:Please tag images to inform the uploader like this: {{subst:please tag images}} ~~~~ This is now also available in the following languages: Česky | Deutsch | Ελληνικά | English | Español | Français | עברית | Magyar | Italiano | 日本語 | Nederlands | Polski | Português | Русский | +/− . It can be used like this: {{subst:Please tag images/<lang_code>}} -- ~~~~


The first section lists all images that have no template on the image description page, and do not contain the strings GFDL, PD or CC. The second section contains images that do not contain a template, but do' contain on of those strings. Images in the second sections should be tagged with the appropriate template if the license can be verified.

Images are also marked by the time they where uploaded: all images uploaded bfore february 6th 2005 are marked (old), everything else is marked as recent. - Not done on latest dump - only recent ones listed as all previous entries had been deleted. In future I recommend leaving all in as they still need dealing with, old or not.


Please note that this list was created from the database dump from June 23rd 2005. Some images may have been tagged since that date, and some may have been deleted. Also, please note that images that contain a tag like {{unknown}} or any other tremplate are not on this list.

The queries used to construct this page can be found at the bottom.

[edit] Queries

To construct this page from a commons database dump (for mediawiki 1.4.1 / CVS-branch REL1_4), use the following:

SQL Query used to construct the first list:

SELECT G.img_name, G.img_user_text, (G.img_timestamp < "20050206000000")
    FROM (cur as I INNER JOIN image AS G ON I.cur_title = G.img_name)
    WHERE I.cur_namespace = 6 
      AND I.cur_text NOT LIKE "%{{%}}%"
      AND NOT ( I.cur_text LIKE "%GFDL%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%GNU_FDL%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%PD%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%public_domain%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%CC%" 
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%creative_commons%" )
    ORDER BY G.img_user_text;

SQL Query used to construct the second list:

SELECT G.img_name, G.img_user_text, (G.img_timestamp < "20050206000000")
    FROM (cur as I INNER JOIN image AS G ON I.cur_title = G.img_name)
    WHERE I.cur_namespace = 6 
      AND I.cur_text NOT LIKE "%{{%}}%"
      AND ( I.cur_text LIKE "%GFDL%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%GNU_FDL%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%PD%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%public_domain%"
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%CC%" 
          OR I.cur_text LIKE "%creative_commons%" )
    ORDER BY G.img_user_text;

The results have then been processed using perl to create the lists below using the following code:

perl -pe 's!([^\t]+)\s+([^\t]+)(.*)!* [[User:\2]] <small>([[User talk:\2|talk]])</small>: [[:Image:\1]] \3!;'
perl -pe 's!0\s*$! (recent)\n!;' -e 's!1\s*$! <font color="red">(old)</font>\n!;'

The sections have been added manually.
