It's time to Wiki the Lounge, yo.

[Premezilla]

I registered on Wikipedia today in order to get a sense of the uploading process. However, there's some technical mumbo-jumbo I'm having some difficulty deciphering. Here's a copy of what I'm looking at

--------
Note: Your file will be deleted in one week unless you provide detailed information on both:

The source of the file:
If you made it yourself, say so.
If the file is available online, include a link.
Most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not appropriate for uploading to Wikipedia.

The copyright holder and the license of the file, including:
A copyrightcense tag, either selected from the drop-down list below or included in the upload summary,
An explanation of why you believe the file is so licenced, and
A fair use rationale, if uploading a fair use image.
If you upload a file here to which you hold the copyright, you must license it under a free license or release it into the public domain.
Users who upload content with false license declarations, or who repeatedly upload images with no license declaration, may be blocked.

If you are uploading a file under a free license (not fair use!), consider uploading it to the Wikimedia Commons, a shared repository of content that can be used on all Wikimedia projects. Files can be uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons at the Wikimedia Commons upload page (you must be logged in to Wikimedia Commons to upload files).
For more information, see our image use policy, how to upload, and the image copyright tags available.

To me, it looks like I only need to go through with the whole licensing process if I use images when writing the article. If I'm mistaken, could somebody let me know? Before I get entangled in a legal hullabaloo? Thanks.

(By the way, Bolty, does this mean the whole Wikipedia article officially has your seal of approval?)
