First steps tutorial

Our first steps tour and our FAQ 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. You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold contributing here and assume good faith for the intentions of others. This is a wiki—it is really easy.

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 (direct access). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at Commons talk:Licensing.

Goodies, tips and tricks
  • Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities.
  • All your uploads are stored in your personal gallery
  • Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~
  • Use the CommonSense tool to find good categories for your files (then other people can find them too!)
  • To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:Image:Foo.jpg]], which produces: Image:Foo.jpg
  • If you're copying files from another project, be sure to use the CommonsHelper
Made a mistake?
  • Did you want to rename or move a file? Simply upload the file again and mark the old one like this: {{bad name|correct name}}
  • For more information read the full deletion guidelines
(P.S. Would you like to provide feedback on this message?)

I'm very sorry. I only uploaded this file and I made a mistake (I was the beginner then) - I didn't put information about author. I will try to find this information on English Wikipedia but I'm not sure about result. Best regards. Ludmiła Pilecka (talk) 23:31, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I found the person who uploaded that file at en-wiki and ask him to confirm if he's the author but the user was unactive till November. We'll see. Ludmiła Pilecka (talk) 00:20, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
OK, I see. Thank you. --Monfornot (talk) 00:39, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

this photo now has a licsence of all rights reserved. please note this on your all pages containing this photo or remove it, thanks tr-x, i am the origional creator of this photo.

Hi, nice picture. Right now it seems to have an "Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 2.0 Generic" license - it isn't suitable for Wikimedia Commons but it is not "all rights reserved" as you mentioned. I'm not sure if you can change the license type of the content once you have released it. But anyway - thanks for the note. --Monfornot (talk) 16:07, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

File:Village atlas.jpeg

edit

The correct reason for deletion is "no source" and "no permission". The uploaded photo stated the fr@wiki as the source, but, what about the original source?. If we look into Fichier:Village atlas.jpeg we can read "image: "Pascal Poublan " http://www.voyages4x4.com autorisation accordée par mr Pascal Poublan:[email protected] village du Haut Atlas". With this information I've searched trough OTRS and only found this ticket. The ticket I've found doesn't say anything about the image in question nor its permission status. You can try to reach fr:Utilisateur:Elfix, a french speaker OTRS member for more information about this ticket. If the image shows to have a permission for its release under a free license, let me know and I will restore it. Cheers! KveD (talk) 21:50, 21 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

OK, thanks for checking up, no big deal. --Monfornot (talk) 10:17, 22 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Monfornot!
 
Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

I did add a category, but forgot to remove the Uncategorized template. --Monfornot (talk) 07:29, 14 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

It was reviewed by the FlickreviewR and has the cc-by-sa-2.0 license. What seems to be the problem? --Monfornot (talk) 05:46, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
It's a modern sculpture in the US. And sadly there is no freedom of panorama for sculptures in the US: see COM:FOP#United States. Trycatch (talk) 12:29, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
All right then, noted. --Monfornot (talk) 13:04, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
