Other image tags
- Many of the image copyright tags, particularly the fair use tags, warn users that the image in question is not free, and that reuse (even within Wikipedia) may be copyright violation.
- Template:Money: "Additional legal restrictions outside of copyright law including laws regarding counterfeiting may also apply, particularly when this image is used in printed form."
- Template:Nazi symbol warns users about laws in several European countries which forbid the display of symbols related to national-socialist organizations outside of an educational context. It also asserts the educational nature of Wikipedia's use of the image. See the vote on deletion of Template:Nazi symbol.
