Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Lethargilistic!

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.

Since you asked for it, please see Commons:Verifiability. Note that it's not a policy, or even a guideline – just an explanation of reality. What Commons cares about is that the image is faithfully described, not that the image itself be true. A completely made-up fake image is welcome, so long as the description says "Here is a completely made-up fake image of something" instead of "Here is a real and true photo".

If you really want something that has the official "policy" tag at the top, then they're all listed at Commons:Policies and guidelines. It's not a long list. You might be particularly interested in Commons:What Commons is not#Wikimedia Commons is not Wikipedia and Commons:Project scope#A word on some areas of particular concern.
