I'm researching and writing a book on merchant vessels sunk by U boat in world War 1. As part of this I'm hoping to use pictures of some of the ships and also vessels such as hospital ships, to illustrate various points. I've seen some pictures on Wikipedia as well as sites such as U-boat.net that have pictures I can use.
Some pictures have copyright info below them but most don't, can I ask what my legal position is on this. Do I need to credit where I found a picture or write to those that have copyright info on them.
It's such a worry, can you help or advise me please?

Obviously they are Old Photos so not my "Own Work". However about 2 Years ago, I got around it OR so I thought, by using Snagit Application and resizing the images or working on the images as my "Own Work".

Hi there. Well thanks for the Information especially surrounding Copywrite. It is true , most if not all of my other uploads are in the 'Commons' Section. That last imate I uploaded , I took a snagit image from Youtube of Éamonn Mac Thomáis and uploaded that for the profile image. It has since been removed. So yes I understand it is a very complex issue. Most of my "Own Work" was just trying to make the Wikipage more interesting !! Whether I plan to upload any more images in the future, well I doubt it ! It is a complex issue and any other Photos I upload I will check the copywrite and the source and do it that way.

I recently made an article on pilot Mary Barr and have been looking for a copyright-free image I could use of her. Because she worked from 1974 onward with the US Forest Service, making her a government employee, i've been looking for an image of her taken during this time period as a part of official business, as such a government work would be automatically public domain. In that regard, one of the sources I found for the article from a newspaper piece, found here, has two photos of Barr. The top one is very clearly taken by the newspaper itself not long before article publication and, indeed, it says below it that it belongs to columnist Woody Morgan. The second photo, however, has no copyright marks on it. In addition, the description to the right of it says it was taken in 1975, a year after she joined the Forest Service. I am pretty much 100% certain that this is a official government photo of her at the time, which is also why the paper didn't have to put any copyright statements under or next to it. But how do I make certain? What are my options right now? Silver seren C 01:51, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

I came across this image File:Percy Jackson Portrait.jpg in the article Percy Jackson, and I have serious misgivings about whether it is suitable for use in Wikipedia. However, I'm not sure which of the 10 guidelines it violates, and so I'm not sure what to do about it. It seems like a " A publicity image", and it's certainly not required for use in the article (especially as it is appropriate to only one section of the page).
Should I remove it from the article? Are there any tags I should place on its file page, or specific warnings I should give to its uploader? Thanks in advance. -- 2ReinreB2 ( talk) 18:17, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
I noticed that the Major Tom article didn't have an image, which seemed odd for such a recognisable pop-culture figure. However, it turns out that Bowie only actually portrayed the character in the original Space Oddity video, where he's always obscured by either a space helmet or a strange mirror-tunnel effect. (Additionally, the only copy online is quite blurry and seems to have been taken from a VHS.) I was thinking of adding an image I found online, which helpfully includes both Bowie's face and the "Major Tom" space suit (as well as the alien/angelic women discussed in the article), but it seems to be a fairly obscure behind-the-scenes photograph and I haven't been able to identify the copyright holder.
