Usage
The template takes an unnamed parameter, being the name of the article in which the file is used:
- {{Non-free historic image|article name}}
Also available is |agency= which, when set equal to "no", will disable the "agency" part of the first sentence:
- "This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image."
If the image has an appropriate rationale then a reviewer will append
|image has rationale=yes
This will stop the message in the lower part of the template from being displayed.
Use of this template in the File space assigns pages to Category:Wikipedia non-free historic files.
