Why join us?

When you share your photos and other files on Commons and illustrate Wikipedia articles with them, your work might be viewed by thousands – even hundreds of thousands – of people all over the world.

And you’re helping to build a common resource that reaches an even wider audience; media from Commons is used by educational websites, news media, bloggers, artists, filmmakers, students, teachers, and many others.

Right now, you're logged in to Wikimedia Commons with your Wikimedia account, so we can continue to the next step.
