Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump. |

Copyright status: File:Scottee.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Scottee.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

Hi Yann, I was given written permission by the owner of the image. I will go via the method you described. Thanks --Battleofalma (talk) 23:51, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
File:Not all....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 file, 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. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. |

File:Trixie Mattel.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 has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

upload issue
[edit]You seem to be importing many images, but with a) no licence b) no useful pointer to a source page that describes and allows us to ascertain the licence c) no description d) filenames that have no semantic meaning. This is basically as bad as an upload can get. Please do better & fix the issues you've introduced. Example, worth looking at in edit mode as well as normal mode: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Large_SMG00048554.jpg - https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Large_SMG00048554.jpg&action=edit --Tagishsimon (talk) 16:19, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Uploads from the Science Museum Collection
[edit]In a recent comment you said that you are working with the Science Museum and Wellcome Collection. I have identified several files from the Science Museum Collection as having invalid licenses, see the following pages:
- Commons:Deletion requests/Uploads from the Science Museum Collection
- Commons:Village pump/Copyright#Images from the Science Museum Collection.
Numerous files on the Science Museum Collection website display a 'Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Licence'. The 'NonCommercial' clause is unacceptable on Wikimeia Commons, see Commons:Licensing.
It appears that the museum has changed its licensing of several images, including File:Babbages Analytical Engine, 1834-1871. (9660574685).jpg. This was uploaded to Commons from Flickr some years ago, when it had an acceptable license that was confirmed by a bot. That file has since disappeared from Flickr, and is now on the Science Museum's website with a non-commercial license.[1]
If you have any relevant contacts at the museum then please alert them to the situation, and urge them to assign licenses that allow their images to be hosted on Wikimedia Commons, and used on Wikipedia. Thanks, Verbcatcher (talk) 20:58, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hello, thank you for letting me know re these specific images. I will chase these up. Battleofalma (talk) 13:42, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
