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. |

Unblock request
edit- Is your upload restriction on English Wikipedia finished, if not, it could be seen that you want to bypass the restriction. I have no objections of the unblock but only if Ashton has no restrictions (regarding uploads on en Wiki) and agrees to use one account only, only upload "free-use" content (must not flickr wash) and abides by Commons policies and guidelines. Bidgee (talk) 04:46, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
- The upload restriction could be "appealed" at WP:AN "no earlier than 07/08/2014", which has passed. I lodged an appeal there but they said to take it here, to Commons. I agree to follow those rules. Ashton 29 (talk) 01:01, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Do you have a link to your enwiki appeal? Bidgee (talk) 10:46, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Most recent one is here. Ashton 29 (talk) 00:52, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
- Well it has been archived. You didn't make yourself very clear, you need to request on English Wikipedia to have your English Wikipedia unblock conditions to be amended by appealing the upload restrictions. Once you've done that, you'll likely have unblock conditions placed on you (such as no copyright violations, flickrwashing, socking ect) but you wouldn't be restricted to requesting files to be uploaded (like you have been on En Wiki). Bidgee (talk) 10:39, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
- I've placed a request on the AN/B. Bidgee (talk) 11:59, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

File source is not properly indicated: File:FullSizeRender-2.jpg
editThis media may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:FullSizeRender-2.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.
If you created the content yourself, enter 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. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |

CropTool
editIn the future, I would appreciate it if you used CropTool to crop images. This tool allows users to crop images already on Commons without having to download the images. It also makes sure that, if necessary, the file has already passed license review. It also properly links the images to one another, in case an issue with them comes up later.

File:Port of Melbourne, 1980s.jpg
editDon't just revert to a clearly inferior version - that's not helpful in the slightest. If you think there's a different improvement that can be made then my talk page is open, so talk to me. Your ownership of images is irritating, and there's a long saga about how you handle that badly. Break the habit of a lifetime, eh? You never know how much better that might end up making you feel - and you might even gain an ally... -- Begoon 14:11, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Air quality in Sydney from the 2019 Australian bushfires.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 ([email protected]). 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). 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:Air quality in Sydney from the 2019 Australian bushfires.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |
Flickr2Commons
editI have just come across a few images you have recently uploaded from Flickr. I would appreciate it if in the future, you used the Flickr2Commons tool. This tool allows images to be moved to Commons from Flickr without having to download the images to your own computer. It also brings in the largest resolution of the image, as well making sure to list the correct license and url, making it easy for the automated Flickr Review system. Also, it is fairly easy to categorize images with this tool. To use it, you just need to go to the url and authorize it (where it says "authorise first").--A1Cafel (talk) 16:57, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

We need your feedback!
editHello. Apologies if this message is not in your native language: please feel free to respond in the language of your choice. Thank you!
I am writing to you because we are looking for feedback for a new Wikimedia Foundation project, Structured Data Across Wikimedia (SDAW). SDAW is a grant-funded programme that will explore ways to structure content on wikitext pages in a way that will be machine-recognizable and -relatable, in order to make reading, editing, and searching easier and more accessible across projects and on the Internet. We are now focusing on designing and building image suggestion features for experienced users.
We have some questions to ask you about your experience with uploading images here on Wikimedia Commons and then adding them to Wikipedia. You can answer these questions on a specific feedback page on Mediawiki, where we will gather feedback. As I said, these questions are in English, but your answers do not need to be in English! You can also answer in your own language, if you feel more comfortable.
Once the collecting of feedback will be over, we will sum it up and share with you a summary, along with updated mocks that will incorporate your inputs.
Also, if you want to keep in touch with us or you want to know more about the project, you can subscribe to our newsletter.
Hope to hear from you soon! -- Sannita (WMF) (talk to me!) 09:57, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:St Paul's, Arrowtown, Otago, New Zealand.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. |
