Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Botacyclem!

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.

Copyright violations

Hello Botacyclem. You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful. This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions.

1. you had no legal rights to delete my files and explanation about any 'whatfor do show this' as using a falsified dumpty-dumpty name for your doing so

2. where are my words now and file explanations?... if you like to play in the open and skirmish with the Cle, I am quite skilled in certain capacity... ? Security services you're getting a payment with? Botacyclem knows nothing about?

3. What is a page telling anyway without a description of any what-about? No one ever has a true look up for all those millions of pages and files Commons is so boosting on and sure I am in this facts//

4. you steal from the rightful custom to enter in culture and real society circles of younger generations not very interested in luxuery filing and problematic rewritables//

5. you don't show any respect for redactioning text to explain less educated as you are what they are looking for//i.e. you have not any feeling for this 'good information hunger' of many young and not so selfconvinced persons aborted by such Ancien Regime Actions in getting a personal opinion for issuing edits//

6. you are to pity for this action and my heart tells me to worry about James

**//09/11//2013 'dark wednesday' is seemingly no lucky day for anyone but some happy few believers//In God we trust//

As I said in my edit comment, Commons Galleries are for collections of images -- a gallery can contain a few words of explanation, but it must be mostly images. Your 1,000+ words of text was clearly unacceptable as a Commons Gallery. Please read Commons:Galleries and Commons:Project_scope for further explanation. .     Jim . . . .
