We're going through the old files that we inherited from TV Tropes that don't have their license information and source work listed - we need to add context to the files.
Please don't add to the workload, the way you did when you uploaded File:600full-moe-kare!!-volume-1-cover.jpg without giving license information. (And speaking of that file, could you go back and add the categories and license, please? It's never too late to add context to a file.)
"Source" means the web URL you got the image from.
Edit: Adding the "source work" in an image actually means adding the work's category in the image.
The URL would be good, too.
By "source", I meant where the image came from originally. In the case of File:600full-moe-kare!!-volume-1-cover.jpg, that would be Moe Kare!!.
Oh, adding the source work. I was about to ask "how?" since there's no spot for "source" on the file uploading page.
There isn't a specific place for that information; just list it in the description text.
Thanks for going back and adding the information!
You can (and should) also add the category for the source work. Which is usually the name of the work, but if you need to make sure, you can just go to the work's page and cut'n'paste from the category list at the bottom.
Reviving this thread... I see that six months after we had this discussion, you added to the workload by uploading File:6142645-2 - Kimi Wa - AllTheTropes.jpg without a license. I'm just seeing this now because of the backlog of work that we have to identify the older images' licenses.
Please don't do that again. We are legally required to have the license information of any image on the wiki. "This file was uploaded by the photographer or author" is not a license - especially when the image is obviously not your own work.
I'm going to have to give you a delayed official warning about this. When you upload a file, you must provide the license information. "This file was uploaded by the photographer or author." is not a license. "This image was downloaded from Wikipedia" is not a license. Failure to provide a license on any further file upload will result in a temporary revocation of your ability to edit the wiki.

To be honest, I didn't realize I didn't put a license. I don't know how that happened. I'm sorry.
I see you've done this yet again, with images of various characters from My Hero Academia. I discovered this during a purge of unused files.
I am deleting the files in question that I am aware of. If you haven't given the license information in nearly two years, it's unrealistic to think that you would give the license information at all.
While you uploaded the files in early-2019 and may have changed your habits since then, these are not the only images that you have uploaded without licenses. Since this is the third time that this has been brought to your attention, I have to give you a formal warning. If you upload another image without specifying the license information, I'll have to give you a temporary block from editing the wiki.
Since this is the end of the calendar year and thus a holiday season in the majority of the English-speaking world, I'll give you the remainder of the calendar year - until January 1, 2021 - to reply to this notice, stating that you understand what we expect and also stating how you intend to act in the future.

I understand I comitted an error. I will not upload images anymore, I think I'm not prepared to do such thing.
