User talk:Ramomammah
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). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump. |

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) 11:14, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Fiat_128.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). Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you. |

Same problem for all your images: You need to provide a correct source, "www.arabicegypt.com" is a source, but should I search the whole website? No, provide a link to the image and the page where it is used on the website. Second you need the copyright holders written permission. The permission must say, that everyone can reuse the image for every purpose including commercial use under the terms of the free art license (you selected this license and claimed the image beeing licensed by the copyright holder under free art license). Do you have this written permission? The website does not say one word about free art license, so I doubt your claim is valid. --Martin H. (talk) 10:12, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
- Furthermore "www.udhu.com" is not the copyright holder, the images are grabbed from random websites and collected in www.udhu.com, udhu can not even make any valid licensing claim because the not own any copyright. You can see this by the watermark in File:Almontaza palace.jpg, so you have to ask the original author if he agrees that everyone reuse his work under Free Art License for every purpose including commercial use. --Martin H.

Copyright violations
[edit]
Hello Ramomammah.
You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful. This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions. |
Martin H. (talk) 11:07, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Can you please ASAP stop to invade Wikimedia Commons as same as Wikipedia with non-free content? Wikimedia projects only accept freely licensed content, it must be the copyright holders (photographers) explicite written wish that everyone reuse his property freely for every purpose including commercial use. You can not simply copy images from other websites, you must have a written permission to free reuse by everyone, everywhere for every purpose including commercial purposes. Please read Commons:First steps, it is described there. --Martin H. (talk) 11:14, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
