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 his local user page.
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a Copyright tag - images without a 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. -- Joolz 11:28, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for your hints
[edit]Hi Joolz, it's nice to give me some hints. I hope I have followed most of them so far. Only with categories I've some problems. I'll study wiki commons next time for this and I hope I can do things better in the future. Or do you see some other insufficiencies on my pictures? Then you should tell it to me with an example. Thanx -- ©WinG 16:06, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
- Hey there, there's no problem except that I noticed some of your images don't have a licence tag, which all images need. These are Image:Obermaßfeld-Thüringen-2005-07-16.jpg, Image:Ritschenhausen-Thüringen-2005-07-16.jpg, Image:Neubrunn-2005-07-16.jpg, Image:Ellingshausen-2005-07-16.jpg, Image:Einhausen-2005-07-16.jpg, Image:BhfGrimmenthal-2005-07-16.jpg. If you categorize your images (for instance you could put these in Category:Aerial views) people can find and use them! Regards, Joolz 17:22, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you again, I forgot the licence tag. I'll do it now. -- ©WinG 12:29, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
Hello, this is a nice aerial photograph. I notice that you forgot to add a copyright tag. You can find a number of copyright tags at Commons:Copyright tags. Thuresson 09:42, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
- You are right, thank you for your hint. I'll correct it now. -- ©WinG 12:31, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi Winfried, please try to place further pictures about Thüringen into Category:Thuringia, instead of Category:Thueringen. Thanks in advance, --Flominator 14:34, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
- Thank you, I'll do it so. ©WinG 15:29, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

Image:ScreenshotFastStoneViewer.jpg permission
[edit]He only said "You can make any screenshots about FastStone Image Viewer and publish them on the Internet." That doesn't include commercial or derivative works. You should ask him to explicitly state, "I agree to license this image/all screenshots under the Creative Commons Attribution Sharealike license, 2.5" (or similar). I know it's a huge pain, but I've gone through the same thing myself... pfctdayelise (translate?) 22:38, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Panoramio_in_Google_-_ehemalige_deutsch-deutsche_Grenze_bei_Henneberg.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

File:FaststoneMenuDemo.gif has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.
If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution.

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) 14:23, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Copyright status: File:Autobahn 73.PNG
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Autobahn 73.PNG. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |
