First steps tutorial 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. Getting help 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.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Changing titles of images to have the location followed by what the image actually is about

I've noticed a ton of submissions from you requesting files be renamed to have the location (all of them seem to be in Canada) preceding the actual contents of the image. If you want to add the location, simply add it to the appropriate category unless the image name needs disambiguation for some reason. There is no valid reason for every image from a location to have that location in the title of the image (again, unless it needs disambiguation for some reason). Please help me understand why you're doing this. Was there a discussion somewhere that determined this needed to be done? Thanks! ···日本穣 ^{Talk to Nihonjoe} 23:13, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi there! I understand how insane I look. I am working as an intern for the Archives of Ontario, who are the original uploaders of all of these files. They have asked me to rename these files, so as to sort them by location, so they appear in that order on the site. I hope that makes sense.

We aren't sure if there is an easier way to sort the folder /without/ having to alter the file titles, we have been looking into it but if you know how please let me know.

Forgive me, I am new to Wikipedia editing, and a few people in the office are also learning as they go with the uploading project. Jugermai (talk) 23:28, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

I think for what you want to achieve it would make more sense to create a gallery (or even a set of galleries) of only the Archives of Ontario's uploads, which gives you a lot more freedom in terms of which order and what presentation you want to give these images. Let me know if that sounds like a good idea. ReneeWrites (talk) 07:53, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't know quite what you mean by "folder", but if you're talking about categories then you can override the sort key for a file either in respect of a single category or by default for all categories the file is in. To do it for a single category, change the category link to have the sort key after the category name, so [[Category:Things|ABC]] to sort a file under ABC in Category:Things. To set the sort key for all categories, use the {{DEFAULTSORT}} magic word, for instance adding {{DEFAULTSORT:ABC}} to the file description will make it sort under ABC in any category for which it doesn't have an explicit sort key.

I don't know whether there's any consensus on whether it's appropriate to use {{DEFAULTSORT}} on files, but it's quite common to override the sort keys for an individual category to achieve an order that makes sense for that category. For instance I created Category:Media from the Basic Korean Dictionary and sorted it by the identifier used by the source. --bjh21 (talk) 13:34, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Un bambardeo y autos de la Cruz Roja (I0029896).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.
