Copyrights edit
Hi! For all your uploads could you please provide a link to where the source says that the images are freely usable. In all the cases that I have looked at so far, there is nowhere that I can find on websites that you have linked to that state that these images can be used freely. Thanks, --JeremyA 01:47, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
PD-self edit
Please do not mark photographs as PD-self unless you are the photographer that was operating the camera that took the picture. If you continue to grab pictures from websites and upload tham here under fake licences you will be blocked. --JeremyA 00:32, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
This page doesn't look like copyright holder of images, that are published there. Becouse of that I'm going to delete all imges copied from there. Please do not load new ones!

Image Tagging Image:Normais.jpg edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Normais.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{Cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

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) 13:26, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
