Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Unionpearl!

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.

@User:Themightyquill : I can see that it might seem strange. The Cornell Library has uploaded some images from its archives. I'm trying to distinguish images taken of events it has sponsored from images it has uploaded. But in this case, the Cornell art museum also hosted the event, so it might be a good idea to separate.

Free license evidence for photo of Barkley L. Hendricks

Hi Unionpearl! I'm leaving this message in regards to this photo of the artist Barkley L. Hendricks that you uploaded in 2020. In the file description and license section, you've noted that you were sent the photo by Duke University's Nasher Museum of Art, with explicit permission to use the file on Commons. If possible, can you send the correspondence between the Nasher Museum and yourself, or a copy of it, to Commons:Volunteer Response Team? Evidence is required to show that the image has been released under a free license for use on Commons, otherwise it may need to be deleted. Thank you so much for your help! 19h00s (talk) 01:09, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

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).
