Please link images
[edit]
Hello!
Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. Siebrand 07:47, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Eve online
[edit]Thanks for uploading Eve Online pictures. I didn't know there could be uploaded here. It's great that we can use a single upload on all projects. Please simply add the image to the article instead of requesting it in the talk page. At least, that's what I would do. --Steinninn ♨ 05:16, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- As far as I know, permission only vaild on that 7 screenshots. But yeah, it's great that we can.
- And..if I can understand each language of articles, I add images to articles. I thought it shoud be placed appropriate position....but now I think of it...I should have done that in short articles.
- Thanks for discussion :) --Perplexing 06:46, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

- Hello. At first upload, I accidently upload it without rename. But I don't know how can I rename it after upload. Can you teach me? --Perplexing 00:51, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- Unfortunately it dont exists a realy rename. We must reupload the file with a new name, and delete the old with a template like {{Badname}}. ~ bayo or talk 08:47, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- All right. I upload new one, and mark old one with {{Badname}}....and replace images in Wikipedia! Thank you for pointing out my mistake :) --Perplexing 03:43, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT 22:50, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

File source is not properly indicated: File:Splinter_Cell_Chaos_Theory_Co-Op.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Splinter_Cell_Chaos_Theory_Co-Op.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file (
[[:File:Splinter_Cell_Chaos_Theory_Co-Op.jpg]] ).
If you created the content yourself, enter If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |

Wikimedia Commons does not accept derivative works of non-free works such as File:Shadow of the Colossus Package.jpg. It only accepts free content, which is images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Reproductions of copyrighted works are also subject to the same copyright, and therefore this file must unfortunately be considered non-free. For more information, please read Commons:Derivative works and Commons:Freedom of panorama. You can ask questions about Commons policies in Commons:Help desk.
The file you added has been deleted. If you believe that this file was not a derivative work of a non-free work, you may request undeletion.

File tagging File:MMA small.png
[edit]This media was probably deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading File:MMA small.png. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:MMA small.png]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |
