User talk:Kagamitsuru

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Kagamitsuru!

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.

Wikimedia Commons has a specific scope

---

Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content, 加賀充, was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope. Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter. Thank you for your understanding.

Abuse will not help

Hi, sorry I only speak English. Regarding Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests#I_angry_all_that_thing! the first thing to do is go back to that page and delete your angry words, the whole line starting with "Son of a ...". That approach will just get you blocked. --Tony Wills (talk) 04:20, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Some suggestions

If the images that you have uploaded File:葛西（かさい）.jpg, File:D0158677 22194322.jpg, and File:加賀充＿証明写真.jpg, are just for personal use, then display them on your user page User:Kagamitsuru otherwise they will probably be deleted. We can't do anything about things deleted on other wikipedia projects. But being blocked on other projects does not stop you contributing here. But your activities here might get you blocked here, so do not start abusing people :-)

Now the good news :-). At Commons.wikimedia.org we can accept original work in the form of photos, diagrams, paintings, sketches and sometimes other illustrations such as cartoons. If your work is illustrating some subject that is likely to be covered in one of the wiki projects, we can store it here. If your work is original cartoons or comic strips, and they have been published elsewhere they may be useful (especially if they are well done). Upload one or two examples and we can see whether it is within our scope. For original work like comics we will require some further evidence that you are indeed the artist. I am happy to answer any questions :-) --Tony Wills (talk) 04:47, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Regarding the page "加賀充" that was deleted - I am not sure what it contained, but assume it was an article (text) about "Kaga Makoto"?. Commons is not for articles, but only for images (photographs, illustrations) for use on other projects. --Tony Wills (talk) 05:00, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
