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. 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. |

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) 14:57, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Copyright violations
[edit]
Hello Electroguv~commonswiki.
You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful. This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions. |

File:OwlDisney.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.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

I don't see any indication that any of these files were published under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License or that "use on Wikipedia is authorized". Did you just make that up? Please note that it is a criminal offense to make fraudulent claims about the authorship and licensing of copyrighted works. You've already been blocked once for uploading copyright violations, and if you continue to do it, you will be blocked to protect you from your own actions. Also note that files with permissions limited to Wikipedia are not accepted at Commons. —LX (talk, contribs) 22:43, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Critically evaluate Flickr licenses
|
File:Tori Black 2010.jpg has been marked as a copyright violation. You may have preserved the information shown on Flickr correctly when transferring the image here, but the Flickr uploader is not the copyright holder of this image. Either the image was created by someone else, or it is a derivative of someone else's work. As stated in Commons:Licensing, only the copyright holder may issue a license, so the one shown on Flickr is invalid.
Always remember to critically evaluate Flickr licenses. Photostreams with professional-looking photographs, album covers, posters, and images in a wide range of styles or quality taken by many different cameras often indicate that the Flickr uploader either does not understand or does not care about copyright matters. See Commons:Questionable Flickr images for a list of known bad Flickr users.

The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Graeme Norgate.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Available licenses
[edit]Contributors of images are not limited to the GFDL, and that license is actually the worst possible one to suggest to them as it's a real pain for reusers. See Commons:Choosing_a_license#Common_free_licenses for the most common ones to choose from. – Adrignola talk 15:40, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
Keira Knightley image
[edit]Sorry, I didn't get a chance to see the image before it was deleted. That is common to have users upload images from Flickr when it's not taken by the actual uploader. Flickr reviewers really need to be vigilant in ensuring that the Flickr uploader actually owns the work. Since it's been deleted, it looks like you were spot on. --Happy editing!

File tagging File:Harrison Ford 2011.jpg
[edit]This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Harrison Ford 2011.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. |

Gemma Arterton image
[edit]- Hi Electroguv,
nice success with the permission at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File_talk:Gemma_Arterton_2010.jpg. In case you didn't already, could you forward the original reply email to OTRS. --Túrelio (talk) 09:50, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi Electroguv
This images was uploaded to Commons under cc-by but on original Flickr page, it's All right reserved. Has the author revoked the license after you uploaded. If so I will tag {{Flickr-change-of-license}} for everybody to recognize this--Hoangquan hientrang (talk) 09:36, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
Flickr image
[edit]Hello Electroguv
Thank you for your contribution to Flickr. However, I think that you should persuade Flickr users to change the license on the image page (except they want to reserve it). You can tell them to go to owner setting -> all rights reserved then click edit and choose Attribution Creative Commons or Attribution ShareAlike Creative Commons in your Flickrmail. Good luck--Hoangquan hientrang (talk) 04:05, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
- I suggested the above to the Flickr user for File:Eva Green 2009.jpg. It is not yet confirmed because the email address wasn't shown in the Flickr profile, so I don't know the email came from the Flickr user to validate it via email rather than through the standard process. – Adrignola talk 20:48, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
- They haven't made their email visible yet or changed the license at Flickr. One of the two is needed for me to verify the file. – Adrignola talk 14:57, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
I have sent an email to the stated author's email address at his site's address. I don't know who sent the forwarded email to us but I'm confirming directly to avoid the possibility of impersonation. – Adrignola talk 14:59, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
Your Flickr uploads
[edit]Hello Electroguv~commonswiki!
Thanks a lot for your contributions! Thank you for transferring images from Flickr to Commons! One hint ahead:
You can use this tool for your flickr uploads. It makes the whole procedure much easier and faster for you!
Thank you for your support! Greetings, High Contrast (talk) 08:04, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello Electroguv
[edit]I'm sorry, but the permissions for any image I Upload, and put it in the permissions. Good luck in your life. --MyCanon (talk) 19:44, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

[edit]I don't know the author's personal e-mail, I only had contact through Flickrmail. Sorry for not being more helpful. Keep up the good work with the image permissions, you're getting some great ones! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 03:13, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
- I uploaded the Johannson image you requested after the author contacted me. It can be found at File:ScarlettJohanssonFeb2009.jpg. I've already added it her article on the English Wikipedia, but feel free to rearrange it as you see fit. By the way, in your image permissions, I would recommend excluding the line "As was said, your photo would be used for encyclopedical and not any other purposes (I will just crop it for article use)." If the image is released under one of the free licenses, it can be modified by other users and even used on other websites, magazines, or even books (as well as for commercial reasons), so long as the author is credited. To prevent any issues of that occurring in the future, I'd remove "and not any other purposes". Another statement I will include in my requests is how many views the article had in the past month. As this can sometimes be in the thousands or hundreds of thousands, it can be another incentive to encourage authors to release an image if they know it is going to be viewed quite a bit. --Happy editing!

Valued Image Promotion
[edit]Congratulations! The image you nominated was reviewed and has now been promoted as a valued image. It is considered to be the most valued image on Commons within the scope:
Kate Winslet.
If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Valued images candidates.
Hi. This is yours, not mine. I just nominate it in the VIC page. Greetings.--Jebulon (talk) 09:31, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
File:OliviaWildeRestSDCCJuly10.jpg 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. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. |

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Electroguv. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Electroguv~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Renamed
[edit]This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)

- use in any work, regardless of content
- creation of derivative works
- commercial use
- free distribution
See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons, and Commons:Image casebook for some specific examples. Some other Wikimedia projects have different licensing policies. For example, the English Wikipedia allows fair use of sounds and photographs. This is not the case on Wikimedia Commons; "fair use" materials are not acceptable here.
Please make sure that you only upload educational content you have created yourself, those which are out of copyright, or those for which you have the required permission for the work to be used in all the ways described above. Please note that derivative works of copyrighted material are also considered copyrighted. Again, please read through Commons:Licensing, which is quite crucial, to understanding how Wikimedia Commons works. Thanks for your contribution, and please do leave me a message if you have further questions.Yours sincerely, Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 11:44, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

File:ElliotPageByNinhaMorandin2010Inception.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.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
