This image is from Wikimedia Commons. Please see commons:File:Local static upload for more information

This image is copied to Wikinews in order so that it may be preserved in its current state at the time the relevant article was published. (For example, it might be a map of number of people with computers per capita by country. If we use it in the article, we'd want the version of the map current to when the article was published, not the most recent version).
