Which RS.org Statements this Property can use, and when

• See also: Help:Copyrights.

RightsStatements.org is an international effort among major cultural heritage institutions to create a global standard for rights statements for works. It has already been implemented by major repositories such as Europeana and DPLA, and many others. A work might be assigned one of a dozen possible statements, which can be stored on Wikidata using RightsStatements.org statement according to source website (P6426) property.

As discussed and agreed during the Property Proposal, this property may ONLY be applied to Items about copyrightable works for which the organisation that owns the original work has itself placed one of the official RightsStatement.org labels in the metadata.

For the ability to model the copyright/Public Domain status of a Work within Wikidata, see copyright status (P6216).

As of the date of approval of this Property there are 12 such Statements. Furthermore, only some of those 12 Statements are applicable to be modeled in Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons due to the policies of those projects.

The table below indicates which of the RightsStatements.org statements can be applied to the works' Wikidata item (if the above criteria is met) or Structured Data on Commons. The table is partially based on RightsStatement.org blog post clarifying the scope of each statement.

Icon	Meaning
	May be used on a Wikidata item
	May be used within Wikimedia Commons Structured Data information and the file very likely meets Commons Licensing policy
	May be used within Wikimedia Commons Structured Data information; however, the file will have to be individually evaluated to determine if it meets Commons Licensing policy

Just a heads-up that I started a thread on Commons' VP to hopefully remove at least one of the question marks in the above table: commons:commons:village pump/Archive/2021/11#No_Copyright_-_Non-Commercial_Use_Only_(Q47530884). So far, confusion; I might just upload a testcase which seems to sit on the safe side, open a deletion discussion and see if it survives. Arlo Barnes (talk) 09:01, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
