NATO tag for Public Domain

I wonder if it is possible to create a NATO tag for PD... reviewing their terms I consider it should be possible. Thanks!

These terms are quite far from meaning public domain; they don’t even mean a free license in the sense used on Commons (e.g. a free license would permit commercial use of any kind, including advertisements and promotion, as well as subjective or unbalanced content). So no, no PD tag should be created for NATO, and material falling under these terms of use shouldn’t be uploaded to Commons at all. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 13:13, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your clarification.

Enjoy your day.

@Coelho sortudo: Hi, I don't think this is OK, but this is the wrong page for this question. You should rather ask on COM:VPC. Yann (talk) 16:39, 3 June 2026 (UTC)
