This image should not be in Wikivoyage as it is copywrighted by Neil Carrey. Does anybody knows how to contact this person? We could ask him if he accept to change the licence. If not, we should remove this image (WT-en) Berru 15:49, 5 April 2006 (EDT)

Anyone who contributes content to Wikivoyage retains the copyright on that content - see Project:Copyleft. What they must do is license that content for use under the CC-SA license. In this case Neil (the uploader and copyright holder) didn't specifically state that he is releasing the content under the CC-SA, but see Project:Image policy for discussions about whether uploaded content is implied to be released under CC-SA.

Summary - stating that an image is copyrighted is fine, so long as the uploader is the copyright holder. Not specifically stating that you agree to license something CC-SA is questionable, and a case which we are trying to avoid in the future. -- (WT-en) Ryan 15:58, 5 April 2006 (EDT)
