Thank you for providing images to the commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on the commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:

  • Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
  • State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikipedia user, link to the person's local user page.
  • If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
  • Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
  • Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others.

If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki.

It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.

Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, have a look at Commons:Licensing, Commons:Criteria for inclusion and the Community Portal. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Village pump. Thank you. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 19:30, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]


Please copy only images from other wikipedias if the license info is complete and belivable (an images that is probably 100 years old is definitely not GFDL). Note that the GFDL requires the author to be named - GFDL image without author info is a copyright violation. Always copy all info from the wikipedia, including who uploaded it first, and where it came from ("english wikipedia" is not a valid source). Also, please always categorize images you are putting on the commons (this may help). -- Duesentrieb(?!) 19:40, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that the commons are much more strict about copyright than the english wikipedia. Images without license info can be deleted immediately. Also, fair use content is not allowed here. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 19:43, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]


Image:Ben Nighthorse Campbell.jpg is much better, thanks. But please not that people often tag stuff they found on some government size as PD-Gov, which is often not correct. For this image, see for example [1]. It would be PD if the image was taken by an employee of ther government on duty. If it was taken by a professional fotographer for the govenrnment agency, it's not PD.

All other images you uploaded have been tagged for missing or incomplete license info. Note that when uploading stuff here, you are responsible for providing complete and correct copyright info, to the best of your ability. Sorry to be picky about this, but finding images with pad copyright info later on is lots and lots of work, and very tiresome. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 20:08, 26 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

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.
