This is a featured picture, which means that members of the community have identified it as one of the finest images on the English Wikipedia, adding significantly to its accompanying article. If you have a different image of similar quality, be sure to upload it using the proper free license tag, add it to a relevant article, and nominate it.
This image was uploaded in the PNG, GIF or other lossless image format. However, it contains visible lossy compression artifacts. These artifacts may have come from the JPEG format or from saving a colorful image in the GIF format instead of the PNG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image, derived from a non-lossy source so that it doesn't contain any compression artifacts (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please replace all instances of the artifacted version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the "File links" header), tag the old version with {{obsolete|NewImage.ext}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload.
This still image was uploaded in the GIF format. However, it contains information that could be stored more efficiently or more accurately in the PNG, JPEG, or SVG formats. If possible, please upload a suitable JPEG, PNG, or SVG version (as appropriate) of this image, being sure to keep it low-resolution if it is non-free. After doing so, please replace all instances of the GIF version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the “File links” header), tag the GIF version with {{obsolete|NewImage.ext}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload.
This image was uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. The information it contains could be stored more efficiently or more accurately in the PNG or SVGformat.
If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image, derived from a non-JPEG source so that it doesn't contain any compression artifacts (or with existing artifacts removed) and with transparency where appropriate. After doing so, please replace all instances of the JPEG version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the "File links" header), tag the JPEG version with {{obsolete|NewImage.ext}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload. (Search for similar images) This image has been added to Category:Images with inappropriate JPEG compression.
The text in this screenshot has been rendered using subpixel rendering (ClearType). Subpixel rendering employs certain physical features of a TFT LCDmonitor but will therefore appear incorrectly on CRT and other LCD monitors. This screenshot should be retaken with subpixel rendering disabled. (Other types of font smoothing or anti-aliasing do not have this problem.)
This image is of generally poor quality. Please upload a better quality version if available, or try to avoid its use. This image is considered to be of low quality because {{{1}}}

This media file is obsolete. It is advisable that you use the newer file, [[:File:|]]. Note: This image will not be deleted unless it is explicitly nominated for deletion.
This image was uploaded with an opaque background where it should have been transparent. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image, derived from a non-JPEG source so that it could hopefully contain an alpha channel and no compression artifacts (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please replace all instances of this version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the "File links" header), and mark this image as {{obsolete|replacement image}}. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload.
The name of this media object is misspelled, incomplete, misleading, cryptic, does not conform to an established naming convention, is largely duplicative to another name, or shadows a file name on Wikimedia Commons. It has been suggested that this media object be renamed. For further information about when to rename, see Wikipedia:File names. This request will be dealt with by an administrator or file mover. Warning: the {{Rename media}} template is not meant to be used outside the File: namespace. Use {{Requested move}} on the talk page of the page that you believe should be moved instead.
If the original image is available or can be reconstructed, please upload a PNG version of the image. After doing so, replace all instances of this version (noted under the "File links" header), tag this version with {{PNG version available|NewImage.png}}, and remove this tag.

Please do not convert GIF/JPEG images directly to PNG! This will not improve its quality.
This image was uploaded in a raster graphics format such as PNG, GIF, or JPEG. However, it contains information that could be stored more efficiently and/or accurately in the SVG format, as a vector graphic.If possible, please upload an SVG version of this image. After confirming it is of comparable quality, please replace all instances of the previous version throughout Wikipedia (noted under the "File links" header), tag the old version with {{Vector version available|NewImage.svg}}, and remove this tag. For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload. For assistance with converting to SVG, please see the Graphics Lab.Do not re-draw or auto-trace non-free images; instead, seek out vector versions from official sources.
A [[:File:|vector version of this image]] is also available, and should be used in place of this raster image where the raster image contains information that could be stored more efficiently and/or accurately in the SVG format, as a vector graphic.
If its license requires the preservation of attribution or revision history, the raster version of this image should not be deleted, in order to maintain this information. For more information, see the documentation on MediaWiki's support of SVG images.

Aside from the claim that this file qualifies for use without permission under fair use, this file is also available under a license that permits unrestricted redistribution in unaltered form but forbids derivative works. Files licensed under such terms do not meet the definition of Free Cultural Works as adopted by the Wikimedia Foundation, and are therefore considered non-free on Wikipedia and may only be used under Wikipedia's non-free content policy. This tag must only be used with a non-free license tag and a valid fair use rationale as required by policy.
This file is covered under copyright in the United States, India, Australia, the European Union, and several other countries. However, because its last author died 50 or more years ago, it is believed to be in the public domain in many countries, including most of Africa, most of Asia, Middle East and North Africa (excluding Israel, Bahrain, Oman, and Morocco), New Zealand, and possibly Canada and Japan. See Wikipedia:Copyright situations by country for more information. If you want to re-use the image, we recommend that you consult your country's laws regarding copyright term expiration.

This non-free media file should be replaced with a reduced version to comply with Wikipedia's non-free content policy and United States copyright law. A manual reduction has been requested. According to Wikipedia's policy for non-free content, the amount of copyrighted work used under fair use should be as little as possible.

The size of an image may be reduced manually in an image editing program or by saving and re-uploading a suitably sized thumbnail.
Once a reduced version of this file has been uploaded: Please replace this template with {{subst:orfurrev}} (through source edit) or {{Orphaned non-free revisions|date=24 November 2024}} (through VisualEditor or Twinkle).
The previous revision(s) of this file are non-free and are no longer being used in articles. Therefore, they fail the Wikipedia non-free content criteria and will be deleted on July 15, 2024. The current revision will not be deleted, only the previous revision(s).
