Kingdom of Baustralia

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Kingdom of Baustralia!

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.

Image without license

File:Badge of the Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps.svg

---

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

@Gbawden: Good day,

why did the picture violate copyright? The picture is of me.

The source is a closed FB group, FB licensing is not compatible with Commons. The photographer needs to provide a release via OTRS Gbawden (talk) 14:29, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

I will get one momentarily.

Copyright status: File:Coronet of an English king of arms.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Coronet of an English king of arms.jpg. 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.

This user's help request has been resolved If you have more questions, feel free to make another {{helpme}} request.

It describes the source and reasons why I thought I could upload it. Anyway, as I believe that I can upload it, could someone help me with a licence for the image? Thank you.

I see "Copyright © 2020 The Heraldry Society – All rights reserved" on that page. Our licensing policy states specifically in part "the following information must be given on the description page, regardless if the license requires it or not:" followed by "The License that applies to the material. This must be done using a copyright tag."   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 00:42, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

@Jeff G., Hi there, the library page states this: "If you use any item from this library, in whole or in part or in any form, for presentation or publication, we ask only that you acknowledge the Heraldry Society as the source, and where possible include a link to this website."

There is no allowance for commercial use or derivative works in that statement. Which URL says that?   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 01:05, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Please note that Wikimedia Commons takes copyright rules and infringement very seriously. Files may only be uploaded and included if their copyright status meets the conditions stated in our licensing policy, and if their provenance is clearly documented. Files that fail to meet those conditions may be deleted, and users who fail to meet them may be blocked. Please follow our first steps, if you haven't already. If you have questions, feel free to ask at the Village Pump copyright question page or on my talk page. Thank you.   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 00:58, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Charles III Cyphers

Re: Template:Royal monograms of the United Kingdom

A monarch having two concurrent cyphers is actually a new thing, which is why I chose the joint image. --Minoa (talk) 02:59, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Cypher of Prince Philip

@Kingdom of Baustralia: Hello there. Sorry to bother you, but given your past work with royal symbols, I was wondering if you'd be willing to create an SVG file of the late Prince Philip's royal cypher (preferably in the "Sodacannic" style), as seen here, here and here. What do you think? Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 15:41, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
