:''For the purposes of this document, "media" is defined as all digital image, audio, and video materials.''
The Citizendium has taken very careful measures to document all media on its site to standards that are unparalleled among similar sites.  Even so, there are several things you ought to keep in mind.  The following is intended to offer some helpful, albeit non-legal guidance on reusing media hosted on our project. 
Despite the very best efforts of Citizendium and its contributors as an intermediary party, the ultimate onus of determining a media's status rests solely with the re-user.
==Overview of how we document==
Citizendium attempts to display on its media pages the following information, so as to assist you in determining whether you can pursue reusing media we host:
* An accurate description of the image.
* The precise source of the image at the time of uploading, usually as a web-link and sometimes as a citation in a paper publication or library call number.
* Precise data about the copyright/licensing/usages and re-usages status at the time of uploading.
* The real name of the author or entity-author of the media.  Except for historical materials where the author is not known, the Citizendium does not normally host media attributed to anonymous or pseudonymous authors. 
* If different from the author or entity-author, the party responsible for digitizing and making available the media.
* A way to contact whoever possesses legal rights or claimed rights to the media.
==Original media== 
==Third party media==
