<small> '''On Republishing Public Domain Materials'''</small>

<small>This guide outlines the principles governing the republication of images in the public domain at Wiki Malolos. Public domain images, by their nature, are not subject to copyright restrictions. However, it is crucial to adhere to ethical practices that respect their historical and intrinsic value. 

1. '''Ownership and Copyright''': No individual or entity can claim copyright over an image they do not own. Public domain images are free from copyright; however, significant alterations may grant copyright to the new work.

2. '''Alterations and Watermarks''': A watermark placed on an unaltered public domain image does not confer copyright. It is essential to avoid altering these images, as such actions can distort their original context and meaning.

3. '''Reproduction Context''': Republishing a public domain image in a copyrighted work does not impose copyright on the image itself. The image remains in the public domain, regardless of the medium in which it appears.

4. '''Collections and Exhibits''': While collections or exhibits containing public domain images may be eligible for copyright protection, the individual images themselves retain their public domain status.

5. '''Ethical Considerations''': It is urged to treat historical photographs with respect. Priority should be on public interest as Wiki Malolos adhere to the following guidelines:
   - We will not alter images.
   - We will obtain permission from copyright holders.
   - We will always attribute the source archive or collection.
   - We will avoid watermarking public domain images; instead, provide proper attribution or annotations as captions or footnotes.</small>
