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?)

Scientific names edit

Hi, thanks for your images. In the future, if you can, could you please provide the scientific names of the birds ? Not everybody can understand your language.. Yours, Frédéric (talk) 13:46, 21 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

In which country did you take the photo Rosenkrantz_mfl.JPG edit

I have seen you photo File:Rosenkrantz_mfl.JPG. Could you please add to the description in which country and city you took te photo? May be also name of the building (church?). Thanks Wouter (talk) 08:31, 19 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Done! --Eaglestein (talk) 11:56, 19 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

A Question edit

Are these 3 photos I took classified as a 'stove plate' or not? I don't know the right category for them. I took the pictures at a University museum in Vancouver, Canada.

Thank You, --Leoboudv (talk) 02:04, 21 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

This was a tricky one. I am not sure. I think of iron-plates as stove plates, but I think there should be an own category for stove tiles. Eaglestein (talk) 11:59, 21 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • That is what I was afraid of but that is quite OK. At least I clearly identified the objects as a stove tile so a future user can identify it. I don't know what else I can do here to add a category to them...but such is life. It is not perfect. I did check for stove tiles here and found nothing....though I did find a cat for this image:
  • File:C.1560 Tiled Stove (UBC).jpg

But that is not very rare compared to a single tile. Well thank you for your help, Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 07:25, 22 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Opplasting av bilder edit

Jeg har tatt en del bilder som jeg ønsker å bruke på Wikipedia, men jeg har problemer med å opplaste dem. Ett bilde har betegnelsen 2022010048.JPG i bildemappen min. Jeg har erstattet JPG med jpg, for jeg skjønner at Wikimedia skal ha det i små bokstaver. ellers har jeg oppført meg selv som kilde og opphavsperson, oppgitt dagen i dag som dato, oppført ønsket lisens, men ingenting skjedde da jeg skulle lagre filen. Hva gjorde jeg feil? Takknemlig for svar. Mvh. Mbakkel2 27. aug 2010 kl. 17:49 (CEST)

Hei - jeg har lagt inn veldig mange bilder - uten problemer. Jeg benytter også JPG (store bokstaver), uten at dette gir meg problemer. Du må starte med at dette er ditt eget verk, men ellers vet jeg ikke hva du kan ha gjort feil. Du får prøve på nytt. Mh Eaglestein (talk) 15:57, 27 August 2010 (UTC) Du vil få en tilbakemelding dersom du forsøker å kalle en fil det samme som en som er lagt inn tidligere. Eaglestein (talk) 16:01, 27 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hei, Eaglestein! Jeg har nå lagt inn en del bilder, og det har gått greit. Takk skal du ha! To bilder ble imidlertid lagt inn med feil filnavn. De lastet jeg opp på nytt, men da ble bildene utstyrt med følgende tag: Dette bildet mangler informasjon om copyright-status. Dersom lisensen ikke er spesifisert med nødvendig kildeangivelse kan den bli slettet syv dager at denne malen ble lagt inn. Hvordan skal jeg gå frem for å få med dette? Hvis jeg skal korrigere et feilaktig filnavn, hvordan kan jeg få endret det? Jeg finner ikke noen flyttefunksjon. På forhånd takk! Mvh. Mbakkel2 28. aug 2010 kl. 16:14 (CEST)

Her kan jeg ikke hjelpe - jeg tror det kan være vanskelig å bytte filnavn (har ikke forsøkt). Men husk å legge inn kategori. Eaglestein (talk) 22:19, 28 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your picture in QIC edit

Hello Eaglestein,
My apologize for the "decline" vote in QIC.
I've had a look to your gallery, and I think you need a better camera...
In my opinion (I'm not a specialist, only an "amateur"), you have a very good "eye".
Don't become discouraged because of this failure, and please try other nominations.
Cheers from Paris,--Jebulon (talk) 09:17, 29 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hei - thank you - that is all right! I know that I should have had a new camera, my Nikon D50 is 6 years old. But I think I rather continue without trying to get any "prize" here :-) --Eaglestein (talk) 21:13, 29 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Featured edit

I ahve nominate your picture Sturnus vulgaris no.JPG as Featured picture candidate here. Regards, Vibhijain (talk) 16:51, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thank you very much! :-) Eaglestein

A cup of coffee for you! edit

  Very nice photos! Thank you! Trixt (talk) 21:55, 23 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thank you very much for your kind words! I was just about to make me a cup of coffee myself, but now this can wait... You may come and join me!? Eaglestein (talk) 07:08, 24 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Alfstadloftet edit

Hei! Jeg var i tvil da jeg opprettet kategorien som Alstadloftet i stedet for Alfstadloftet, men Riksantikvaren kaller det Alstadloftet i sin database. Mvh.--Anne-Sophie Ofrim (talk) 21:28, 23 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hei! Jeg har ingen sterke meninger om dette, men lokalt brukes "Alfstadloftet". Dersom det skal stå Alstadloftet som kategori, så må vel kanskje denne skrivemåten også føres opp i artikkelen. Mh Eaglestein (talk) 22:05, 23 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Flora of Store Ble edit

Hi, I've created a category Blefjell now and found your nice gallery Flora of Store Ble. Could it be that you mean Blenuten instead of Store Ble? You describe it as the northern part of Blefjell in Rollag kommune, but Store Ble is the southern part of Blefjell and in Tinn kommune, also more than 1300moh. mange hilsner --Sjokolade (talk) 08:08, 16 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Husker ikke hvordan jeg skriver her, men skal forsøke. Du kan lese om StoreBle her: https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blefjell Jeg har hatt hytte på Blefjell i 28 år, og kjører opp den siste avkjørselen fra Numedalen - den nordligste - der det alltid har stått et skilt "Storebleveien" :-) Med hilsen --Eaglestein (talk) 06:28, 17 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Beklager, jeg ikke viste at Store Ble er også et område. Jeg tenkte at det var bare fjellet i sør av Blefjell. Takk for hjelpen :-) --Sjokolade (talk) 06:55, 17 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
