Try system message
Please change the first ** of Free licences from **PD|Public domain to:


 * PD|

Then test that Special:Upload has a drop-down message for Public domain under "free licenses". If it looks like code or looks garbled please revert abs let me know, because it affects other requests for system messages. Thanks User:Kmdenmark notjusttired (talk) 08:31, August 17, 2019 (EDT)


 * Done! Tested and its fine. Kmdenmark (talk) 13:37, August 20, 2019 (EDT)

Please delete CC-by-3.5 and CC-by-sa-3.5 only
User:Kmdenmark Apparently these two licenses were never finished or published. Please go to both the share-alike, Non-commercial and attribution sections and remove these 3 lines: CC-by-3.5|Creative Commons Attribution 3.5

CC-by-sa-3.5|Creative Commons ShareAlike 3.5

CC-by-nc-3.5|CC NonCommercial 3.5

(I've checked that none are used and I already marked both the templates and categories for deletion.) Thanks. --Notjusttired 13 aug 2019


 * Done!

New update
Please change this line:
 * CC-by-sa-4.0|I created this and anyone can alter or copy it, but credit me as the author

to:


 * CC-by-sa-3.0|I created this and anyone can alter or copy it, but credit me as the author

but without the "pre" tags. The only difference is the change of number from 4 to 3, which matches MEpedia's license. User:Kmdenmark Thanks notjusttired (talk) 15:10, July 28, 2019 (EDT)
 * Done! Kmdenmark (talk) 14:05, July 30, 2019 (EDT)

Please update
Please update this page with the contents listed below, without the pre tags. This new version adds some options such as "I created this and anyone can alter or copy it" and "I created this and anyone can copy it but don't alter it" Pyrrhus (talk) 19:58, June 14, 2019 (EDT)

 * Unknown_copyright|
 * CC-by-nd-4.0|
 * CC-by-sa-3.0|
 * CC-zero|

Hopefully the Special:Upload page's dropdown box will look the same as before notjusttired (talk) 17:13, August 20, 2019 (EDT)

New request (hopefully simpler)
Replace all content with what's below. This should only change 5 lines, with the order of two lines being swapped around. Please check that the dropdown box in Special:Upload shows the right messages after. User:Kmdenmark please say if anything is unclear. notjusttired (talk) 15:47, August 30, 2019 (EDT)
