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. 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. |

File:Oderichv-Gustavo (2).jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

Thanks for uploading File:Hazim J. Safi.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Hazim J. Safi.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

- If this was a work-for-hire, then the copyright likely belongs to the employer or the person or company commissioning the work. Otherwise, it likely belongs to the photographer.
- If you DO own the rights, please use the OTRS process outlined above within the next week to prevent deletion.
- If you do NOT own the rights, please either find evidence that the image has been published with a "free" license or placed in the "public domain," OR, if that cannot be done, have the actual rights-owner publish it with a free license or have them contact the Wikimedia Commons using the OTRS process outlined above so they can release it under a free license.
- This may seem like a burden, but it is to protect both Wikipedia and the actual rights-holders, as images uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons can be used for commercial purposes and many photographers do not want to release photos under a license that allows commercial use without payment.
- I did not "tag" your other photo because it showed enough meta-data to indicate that you were likely the photographer. If another editor "tags" that image, you will need to follow the steps above for that image as well. Davidwr (talk) 21:30, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
