Welcome

The Wikimedia Commons is a project that provides a central repository for free images, music, sound & video clips and, possibly, texts and spoken texts, used in pages of any Wikimedia project.

Unlike images uploaded on other projects, images on Commons can be embedded on pages of all Wikimedia projects.

Images and other files can be downloaded and used elsewhere too. Make sure you read and respect the image licence (on the image page) before you use it.

The Commons was launched on September 7, 2004. Currently it contains 110,360,279 files and 106,223,156 collections.
