Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, William Gauderman!

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.

• Hi. If someone else is falsely claiming you gave permission for free licensed reuse of your photos, rather than editing the photo descriptions, the images should be deleted. I suggest either sending a notice to Commons:OTRS, or listing the images at Commons:Deletion requests. Thanks for your attention and if you have questions about Commons you can't find the answer to, feel free to ask. Cheers, -- Infrogmation (talk) 05:17, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Again, if there are any fraudulent claims about your images, please list them for deletion (where the issue can be brought to the attention of the Wikimedia community) rather than just leaving a note on the image description page. I have started a deletion listing for an image you listed: Commons:Deletion requests/File:Modern dancer andrew parodi in tree by william gauderman.jpg. Please comment there to add any information which might help with a deletion decision. Thank you. -- Infrogmation (talk) 17:09, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
