Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, OhanaUnited!

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.

Plate images

I deleted all the above, and a few others, as the plate designs are property of the various states an provinces from which they come. Barring specific release from those entities, these are not public domain images. Sometimes release is granted. For example, I obtained release from Province of Quebec government regarding road signs of theirs (see User:Durin/Text to Government Québec). We can't assume these images are PD without their specific acknowledgment. Also, in a number of cases these images were tagged as works of the U.S. government. They were not; they're works of the respective state governments, and the law granting PD status to the images does not apply to state works. Regards, --Durin 16:28, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Image:Swallow_chicks444-2.jpg

I don't think Image:Swallow_chicks444-2.jpg is an FP on Commons is it? At least this one didn't pass. I'm guessing the template was there from en and it just coincides with the template on Commons. --Dori - Talk 15:29, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Chinese language translations

Hey, thanks for volunteering on the help desk. Do you have any ideas as to what would be a good way to make this work? I haven't yet worked with another user on something like this, so if you have, I'd like to hear your thoughts. BrokenSphere 14:44, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

OK. Basically there are 2 groups of photos for which I need translation. One group is the ones I plan to upload here, the other group is of the nearby label/caption to ID what the subject is, which I am not planning to upload. Here are 2 possibilities for upload & ID that I thought of, if you can think of others, let me know.

I know for some that the file names will have to be changed, so I could do what happened before when someone from HK was able to point out specific streets that I had uploaded under generic names, i.e. after he made corrective edits, I reuploaded them using the correct street names and used the {{badname}} tag to get rid of the dupes. This process though gets a little more cumbersome with the second group since the pic has to be gotten rid of but not replaced. I guess I could tag these with {{delete}} and give my own reasons.

I could upload all pics for translation to a folder in a Fotki account that I have and number them, send you the link, and you could PM me back as to what they are by number. However since it's a public folder, if I post the link to the whole folder, then anyone can backtrack along the URL and check out my other vacation photos. What I could do is host them there, but post the individual URL of each pic in a numbered list, like this:

1. DSCF4782.jpg

This way it makes it harder for someone to go back into the public section of my account, for one since my username isn't displayed. You could then make an edit as to what #1 is, and so on.

Personally I think option #2 (upload to Fotki and post the pics here) is better as it avoids having to upload to Commons and do the whole badname tag/reupload bit. Another thing is I've been uploading a few dozen other pics on a daily basis, so these would start to get buried among those, although I do track of my uploads. BrokenSphere 15:19, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, I will work on going through to sort out what needs to be translated and uploaded and will email you them when ready. I did upload the following so far using generic names, so you can go ahead and edit the descriptions accordingly:

• 1
• 2

Thanks. BrokenSphere 22:41, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I assume that you're talking about these 2. I've been logging what my travel pics are of and where they are for 3 years now. As for whether or not I can distinguish whether something is genuinely identifying the subject in question or blatant advertising, all I can say is that at the time I took the photo it was in good faith that it was the former. If you put 2 texts in front of me in Chinese and to use the 2 examples, one is a poem and the other's an ad, I couldn't tell you which was which just looking at them. I'm assuming that you would be in the same situation as me if the text was written in Cyrillic or Arabic and you couldn't distinguish one word in either language from the other. Your patience and forbearance is appreciated if you still want to continue with this project, but if you'd rather not, I can ask around to see if anyone else can help out.

PD-1923 in Chinese

Hi, I noticed something weird with the translations of {{PD-1923}}: the zh-hans and zh-hant on Template:PD-1923/lang both point to Template:PD-1923/zh (rather than /zh-hans or /zh-hant). My guess is this was a typo, but since I don't speak Chinese, I may be completely wrong. Would you mind checking, and correcting if needed? Thanks, Pruneau^talk 14:08, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

File tagging File:ZooKeys_logo.JPG

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:ZooKeys_logo.JPG. This media is missing permission information. 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). Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you.

We're scientists. We don't "steal" other people's images and release them to public domain without permission. The author of the image, Chris Winks, gave permission to his colleague Stephen Thrope (User talk:Stho002) to release the image. Just give it a few for Chris to send an email over to OTRS. P.S. Scientists hate red tape. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:35, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Only 1-17? There's 38 out now. I think I will upload some (I'll be sure to check for duplicates beforehand). Thanks. Rocket000 (talk) 20:47, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

I'll be more than happy to do the uploads for you. If there's a lot of cropping to do, you can make a request at Commons:Graphic Lab, but I can't guarantee anyone will do it (cropping doesn't seem to be a popular task).

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:

1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
2. This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
3. Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons

Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.

A (belated) thanks on editing this in order to try to make it better. Unfortunately, at the time of taking the picture, we only thought about its usefulness to us and didn't have a copy w/o people in the foreground. I thought of cropping it that way myself, but decided not to, as the cropped version doesn't provide the reference to the ground, and so it's more difficult to judge the tower height...

Important message for file movers

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

• To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
• To perform file name swaps.
• When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Speedy versus Nomination

Greetings: Please only use speedy deletion for obvious, provable copyright violations. Use Deletion Nomination for anything which may or might require discussion, consideration or need to be documented carefully, e.g. based on prior actions, or similar. Cheers!

Copyright status: File:Kaitlyn Verfuerth.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Kaitlyn Verfuerth.jpg. 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.

File:Krakow war protest 9.jpg

File:Krakow war protest 9.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that. The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.) This file is a copyright violation for the following reason: The painting and its printed version on the two bags, which are the focus of the picture, are likely copyrighted. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Question about file name

Why did you name File:Western Nashville WV banner.jpg that? It is in Tennesee, not West Virginia. Bubba73 (talk) 03:53, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
