Pay attention to licensing
|
Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content: images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose.
File:Cherry blossoms in Seattle.jpg seems to be free (or it would be proposed for deletion), but it was identified as having a wrong license. Usually, it is because a public domain image is tagged with a free license, or because the stated source or other information is not sufficient to prove the selected tag is correct. Please verify that you applied the correct license tag for this file. If you believe this file has the correct license, please explain why on the file discussion page.

- Thanks for letting me know. The license on the file wasn't CC BY-SA for some reason, so I updated it and will try again. PilotChicago (talk) 18:57, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
