Reason for reporting: Adding the "Copyvio" tag to photos is free to use on photos of File:Pakuwon Mall Surabaya (2020).jpg. The owner of the photo has allowed the photo to be shared freely and does not claim copyright, but he added the Copyvio tag carelessly.

Please read COM:Bad sources#Pexels.com - pictures from Pexels.com published after 4 July 2018 are not allowed on Commons. This is because their license includes restrictions for commercial use — Commons does not allow non-commercial licences.--DJ EV (talk) 10:06, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Why can't photos from Pexels uploaded after July 4 2018 be posted on Wikimedia Commons?. As long as the owner or uploader of the photo allows the photo to be re-shared, that's fine. If you don't believe the copyright status of the photo, please visit the source website that uploaded the photo and read the copyright status again. Note, the status of the photo is free-to-use.
