Image Tagging Image:Scottish Royal Banner.PNG
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Scottish Royal Banner.PNG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore 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.

- Jeremy! I believed I did everything you are asking me above: I did leave a note of where I have found the image. Meaning from English Wiki source. And second, I also place a license or a copyright tag {{Coatofarms}} which I had the impression was possible to use on Commons. My belief is (or was) that the rules for English Wiki and Commons was more or less the same. If that's not true, then except my apologies. --FinnBjo 02:59, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hi! The rules on commons are slightly different from wikipedia--there is no fair use, and all images must be under a free licence. To me, the {{Coatofarms}} tag doesn't give any information on copyright or licensing, it just states that, whatever the copyright or licence is, there may still be restrictions on the use of the image in some countries--so there still needs to be a tag showing the copyright/licensing status of the image. You sourced the image to wikipedia, however the wikipedia page also does not give any information as to the source of the image--it would be useful to know if the original uploader to wikipedia created the image or not.

- Well, I had hoped that the original uploader had sorted out those issues, but never mind. I guess I can make my own version of the file, redraw if necessary. I will try to keep in mind that the english Wikipedia is not always... eh... trustworthy. --FinnBjo 21:57, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Image deletion warning | Image:George harrison portrett.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. |

Thanks for uploading Image:Stonehenge 03.JPG. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one.

Copyright status: File:Ork Linga-Holm.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Ork Linga-Holm.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. |

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called FinnBjo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name FinnBjo~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
