Bharatpedia:Images
 | This is an information page. It is not one of Bharatpedia's policies or guidelines, but rather intends to describe some aspect(s) of Bharatpedia's norms, customs, technicalities, or practices. It may reflect varying levels of consensus and vetting. |
Images are one of the many types of media used on Bharatpedia and may be photos, drawings, logos, or graphs.
All pictures used must be legal in the United States, where Bharatmedia's servers are located. Images are stored on the Bharaatpedia website or the partner Bharatmedia Commons website. All free content is stored on "Commons" and images that have more onerous copyright restrictions are stored on Bharatpedia, under a fair use rationale. Also, images that are used on the Main Page have a local version to prevent vandalism from appearing. Editors can also choose to have a local version stored on Bharatpedia.
Images are classified as files and use the prefix of File: or the deprecated prefix of Image:. The File namespace is one of several namespaces used on Bharatpedia.
Since Bharatpedia is not censored, readers and editors may come across offensive images.
