Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Wikien2009!

First steps tutorial 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. 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 (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Category change

If you're going to change the category a photo is in, can you make sure that the new category actually exists? A number of the porn star images you moved didn't have a new category. Tabercil (talk) 00:09, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Duplicate

Images are to be tagged as duplicate only if they are exact duplicate. Cropping is sufficient cause for an image not to be so tagged. Tabercil (talk) 22:05, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Gallery pages

Hi! Why did you redirect the United States gallery page to the category? - See, we have gallery pages in addition to the category pages, and those are used to present the best and most interesting images of a given broad subject.

Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 17:51, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

• I notice that you are also redirecting other gallery pages. Have you initiated discussions about their consolidations? What basis are you using to consolidate them? Please respond. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:48, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Please read Commons:Village_pump#Redirecting gallery pages to categories WhisperToMe (talk) 01:56, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Your redirects for United States and Michaela Schaffrath were reverted, because the galleries were too substantial. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:08, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Notification about possible deletion

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry. If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have 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 them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Affected:

• File:Film shoot on Bowery this Wednesday.jpg
