If this template was added because you clicked "Mark for deletion" in the left menu (right when using Vector 2022 skin), please make sure that all necessary pages have been created. If they haven't been created after a few minutes, or if you added this template manually, you should complete these steps:
- 1 Visit the deletion requests subpage and place the following code:
{{
subst:
delete2|image=File:Martin monti.jpg|reason=This photo, uploaded here in 2020 with a
{{Cc-by-3.0}} license tag, is claimed to be taken from a 1985 book, which is not really compatible with a CC license. Per the metadata, it appears that the photo is
actually a part of the
en:Bettmann Archive at Getty Images, cropped from a larger photo available
here. The file is dated 1946-01-26, but given the timeline at
en:Martin James Monti, the year is 1948.
Alvin Gordon is named as author, but there are no details about this person, nor are there any details about when and where the photo was published first and if this happened before 2003. Without all these details, we cannot determine the photograph's copyright status, and the file should be deleted per the precautionary principle.}} ~~~~
