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. 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).

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.CategorizationBot (talk) 11:05, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:19152_236048491021_626681021_3747851_7645707_n.jpg. 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:19152_236048491021_626681021_3747851_7645707_n.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

File source is not properly indicated: File:Hardy1_copy.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Hardy1_copy.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:Hardy1_copy.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! |
- Hello, thank you for your contributions, Please point a link where permission to upload and licence this image is given. Thank you Justass (talk) 22:24, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hello, I fear this is not enough. I cannot verify your permissions statement, as the referenced image is not there. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 13:04, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, I located the referenced image, and the permission statement is insufficient as there is no clear indication as to what license she is agreeing to. Tabercil (talk) 14:40, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- +1 per Tabercil --Herzi Pinki (talk) 14:48, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
What are you talking about? She told me she could use the picture she had on her Twitter account. She even provided the picture if you look at the message. Philipmj24 (talk) 14:45, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- She did not give you the permission to put it under the CC license you stated for the image. Best would be to contact the OTRS team on how to proceed. --Herzi Pinki (talk) 14:50, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
I see. I'll take care of it.Philipmj24 (talk) 14:59, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- thanks for understanding --Herzi Pinki (talk) 15:32, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Gentlemen, look up "File:Permission2.jpg". That should be sufficient. Lesson learned.Philipmj24 (talk) 19:08, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- And that's File:Permission2.jpg Tabercil (talk) 20:16, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Yes, and she gives me permission to use the photo under the CC license. The matter should be closed.Philipmj24 (talk) 20:39, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- good job done, thanks. the case can be closed, I think (you did already). --Herzi Pinki (talk) 22:13, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons does not accept derivative works of non-free works such as File:Medley relay 2008-2.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.

Copyright status: File:Emerson Spencer.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Emerson Spencer.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. |
