Template documentationThis template must be placed in the Licensing section of non-free posters to identify them as such. Note: Posters with US copyrights before 1964 are mostly in the public domain due to failure to formally renew the copyright on the poster. In this case the template {{PD-art|PD-US-not renewed}} should be used instead of this template.
Usage
Simply insert this template into the Licensing section of an image description page. It should look like this:
==Licensing==
{{Non-free poster}}
Doing so will alternatively put the image into Non-free posters category. However, you have the option of putting the image into one of the appropriate sub-categories such as Fair use images of event posters, Fair use images of film posters, Animated film posters, Fair use images of television program posters, Fair use images of theatre posters, etc. To so, simply pass the name of the category as the first unnamed parameter. The following example puts the image into Fair use images of movie posters:
==Licensing==
{{Non-free poster|Fair use images of film posters}}
Make sure you preview your edit and verify the result.
This template is able to make use of category redirects, so{{Non-free poster|Fair use images of movie posters}} will resolve to Category:Fair use images of film posters.
