Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, DukeOfDelTaco!

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 status: File:South Dakota Senate.png

Copyright status: File:South Dakota Senate.png

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:South Dakota Senate.png. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Hi DukeOfDelTaco, I've reset your crop of this image, as it violates our policy Commons:OVERWRITE. Please, upload your cropped version under a slightly different filename. --Túrelio (talk) 08:20, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Category:Wes Moore in 2009

Category:Wes Moore in 2009 is considered to fulfill the criteria for speedy deletion and has been marked on its page. The following reason has been specified: Category once had a single file that has since been deleted for violating copyright. If you believe the content does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, you may replace the speedy deletion tag with a regular deletion request (if the content has not been deleted) or request undeletion (if the content has already been deleted). All your uploads, including deleted ones, are listed in your upload log. If you need help, please read our frequently asked questions or visit the help desk. Please do not remove this message from your talk page. You may set up archiving instead. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Thank you

Thank you for adding Category:Libby Pataki to Category:Spouses of United States mayors. It might seem like a small-matter, but your improving categorization in this project is an appreciate service. SecretName101 (talk) 22:13, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Please, double check your work when adding multiple categories per edit.

Here you added a category that User uploaded this file, which is incorrect, because I uploaded this file. You also removed several valid categories that you as well as another volunteer added again later. Thanks, -- Ooligan (talk) 04:14, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

My mistake! Thanks for keeping me in check. DukeOfDelTaco (talk) 04:19, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

It's best, if you keep your own edits "in check." Thanks for correcting your mistake. -- Ooligan (talk) 04:30, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
