Thanks for uploading File:David Carradine young.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

@JuTa: Greetings. Thank you for your warning, I was aware of this file status, and I am looking for ways to improve it. This leads me to a somewhat philosophical question: how can I establish the copyright status of a portrait taken about 50 years ago, without a signature or known origin? It is the generic portrait of a young actor, at the time not famous enough as to have it taken by a renowned photographer. It isn't displayed on David Carradine's website, Getty Images hasn't grabbed it (yet), it only appears in a couple of celebrities' pictures websites without any authorship notes, and on social media, and in infected sites (beware of theofy.world). How isn't this image fair use at this point? How can it be included in Commons before a supplier of stock images gets hold of it?
The importance of this particular image is, besides unusually showing the subject at such a young age, showing that the casting of him as Kwai Chang Caine wasn't as preposterous as many believe ("Carradine, with his eyes taped to make him look Chinese" appears here and there) because due to the mysteries of human genetics, an American with Irish ancestry looked Eurasian even without make-up. So, any suggestions? Maykiwi (talk) 22:14, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi I dear you simply cannot use in on commons then. You may upload it to i.e. en: as fair use, but commons does not accept that - see Commons:Fair use. --JuTa 00:25, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
