Image Tagging Image:Forsberg stamp.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Forsberg stamp.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Hi, you mentioned that you publish this photo with permission. May I see the permission please? Thuresson 01:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
You claim that the photographer license this photo under GFDL but when I checked Flickr, the photo is clearly tagged with "cc-by-nc-sa". Since WikiCommons do not allow that license, this photo will have to be deleted. Do you have any comments on this? Thuresson 01:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
I have deleted it in the meatime. The source was http://flickr.com/photos/khoogheem/117191698/. It clearly indicates that it is non-commercial only. Arnomane 16:00, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Jag hittade bilden på Peter Forsberg på Peter Forsberg men kunde inte länka till den. I stället flyttade jeg över en kopia på Common så jag kunde andvända den på min bit om Tre Kronor - det finns en kopia till på den på sidan: Immagine:Forsbergbollo.jpg - där kan jag urskilja orden pubblico dominio på italienska - hoppas det räcker Apw 19:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- Tack för ett snabbt svar. Den italienska texten lyder översatt till svenska:
- Den här bilden föreställer ett frimärke publicerad av en regering. Vissa frimärken är public domain, andra skyddas av upphovsrätten. Hursomhelst kan bilden av detta frimärke användas med hänvisning till begreppet "fair use" i den amerikanska upphovsrättslagstiftningen.
- Tyvärr tillåter inte WikiCommons "fair use", därför måste nog bilden raderas. Se även artikeln Commons:Licensing för vilka bilder som WikiCommons tillåter att man laddar upp. Hälsningar, Thuresson 17:04, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Image deletion warning | Image:Malcolmxmartinlutherking.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this image, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. If the file is up for deletion because it has been superseded by a superior derivative of your work, consider the notion that although the file may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new file. |

Deleted contents
[edit]
Hello Apw,
the following content you uploaded is not free and therefore has been or will soon be deleted:
- Image:Spotted Dick-640x480.jpg
The Wikimedia Commons (this website) only hosts media files which can be used for any purpose, including:
- use in any work, regardless of content
- creation of derivative works
- commercial use
- free distribution
See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on the Wikimedia Commons. Some other Wikimedia projects have different licensing policies. For example, the English Wikipedia allows fair use of sounds and photographs. This is not the case on the Wikimedia Commons: "fair use" materials are not acceptable here.
Please make sure that you only upload works you have created yourself, those which are out of copyright, or those for which you have the required permission for the work to be used in all the ways described above. Please note that derivative works of copyrighted material are also considered copyrighted. Again, please read through Commons:Licensing, which is quite crucial to understanding how the Wikimedia Commons works. Thanks for your contribution, and please do leave me a message if you have further questions. abf /talk to me/ 19:50, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
File:Public hearing at the ICJ.jpg had no claim whatsoever to be a GFDL licensed image on en:Wikipedia. Why did you change the license without authorization? Infrogmation (talk) 14:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 07:17, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

File:Martini_glass.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added may soon be deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please replace the copyvio tag with {{subst:OP}} and have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you disagree that the file is a copyright violation for any other reason, please replace the copyvio tag with a regular deletion request. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
