The current notice to a photo contributor whose photo is rejected due to copyright is a bit over-explanatory.
Additionally, it directly invites the contributor to submit verification of ownership, which ultimately does not change the fate of the photo but does introduce extra work for moderators and the contributors who do so (who also occasionally submit too much verification).
The notice should be concise and conclusive.
