This template is used for images at Flickr that are identified with the Creative Commons "Public Domain Mark". Unlike CC0 or the other Creative Commons licenses, the Public Domain Mark is not a legal instrument; there is no accompanying legal code or agreement. Instead, the Public Domain Mark is a tool that allows anyone to mark a work that they believe to be free of known copyright restrictions. However, it does not say why the image is in public domain and this part has to be added by the user. This template encourages the user to select an appropriate Commons public domain license template.

Instead of using this tag directly, you should instead use {{subst:Flickr-public domain mark/subst}}.

The template automatically sets the following categories: Category:Flickr public domain images needing specific copyright tags

Usage

{{Flickr-public domain mark |day= |month= |year= |website= }}

Flickr review bots and other upload tools should instead substitute {{subst:Flickr-public domain mark/subst}} instead of using this template directly.
