This form is only for uploading work originally uploaded at another Wikimedia project. To upload work from other sources, please use a different form.
Use the CommonsHelper tool to easily transfer images from other Wikimedia projects (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikinews etc.) to Commons. Fill out the details, and it will give you a summary you can cut-and-paste into the box below.
No fair use
Commons DOES NOT ALLOW FAIR USE. Fair-use images at English Wikipedia, and other projects that allow fair use, must NOT be transferred here.
Source info
Please evaluate the strength of the argument of the uploader. Images without clear, believable source information should NOT be transferred - get the source information cleared up first.
Upload hi-res
For images, make sure you've saved the original, high-resolution version of the file. If the filename you saved on your computer starts with something like "300px-", then you didn't get the highest resolution version.
Descriptive name
If the original had an undescriptive name (especially default camera file names), use this opportunity to improve it. This reduces the likelihood of name clashes, and allows media to be found more easily.
Link to original
Always link to the original image page as the source. We need to be sure that media here truly is freely licensed, so if you don't provide this link, we might have to delete the file from Commons.
