Please link images

---

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. EugeneZelenko 14:59, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Usage in International School Linking / Child Sponsorship Initiative through grassroots.org.uk

Dear Mr. Swim,

Firstly, thanks for uploading so many brilliant images. My name is Jon, and I work for [ht tp://www.grassroots.org.uk Grassroots Trust] in the UK.

We are a Christian charity that runs a sponsorship programme for children in India, Kenya, Romania and Tanzania for children in primary and secondary education. We work with children of all faiths and no faith. As part of this work, we also link primary schools in the UK to some of the schools we partner with abroad and would like to use the image http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Indian_Rhino_(Rhinoceros_unicornis)1_-_Relic38.jpg as part of a resource given to UK schools to learn more about what animals there are in different countries. You will of course be credited with the creation of the image.

I hope this will be okay. Do let me know if you would prefer we not use this image.

All the best,

Jon White.

• Hi Jon, Not a problem, thanks for letting me know. I try to keep my Talk page neutral with regards to linking to external pages, so I broke the link to the web site.
