The image content

• is purely an original work by the uploader (Commons:Choosing a license)
• is adapted from an existing work (Commons:Derivative works)
• contains elements which were created by others which may be subject to licensing (in photographs, this may include buildings, logos, art, identifiable people, etc)
• is a work by someone else, but a new license is asserted by someone other than the creator (for example, by an archiving institution)
• is a work by someone else, which someone other than the creator digitized ({{PD-scan}})
• is a work by someone else

Non-copyright or out of copyright (public domain)

• the underlying work is too simple to qualify for copyright protection, failing Commons:Threshold of originality, as eg {{PD-shape}}, {{PD-text}}, {{PD-textlogo}}.
• the underlying work is too old to qualify for copyright protection (see linked templates in {{PD-ineligible}})
• the digitisation of a two-dimensional object creates no new copyright (eg {{PD-scan}} see Commons:2D copying and Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag and Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag); the object has an independent copyright status which must also be respected
• Government works in some countries (Commons:Licensing)

Elements by others

• Buildings: Commons:Freedom of panorama; other content: Commons:De minimis
