File source is not properly indicated: File:Immaculate Mary.ogg
editThis media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Immaculate Mary.ogg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file (
[[:File:Immaculate Mary.ogg]] ).
If you created the content yourself, enter If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)

Thank you for uploading some images!
Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!

You are right. It is probably a copyright violation. I should have read the copyright policy more in detail. However, I have a question: the Wikipedia article on visual studio also has a screenshot of visual studio code editing. Isn't it also a copyright violation? L293D (talk) 01:03, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
Besides, a screenshot of Google chrome, File:Google Chrome Screenshot.png was kept. What's the difference with mine? L293D (talk) 13:03, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hi. Wikipedia is another website. I happen to be a member of Wikipedia too. It has its own rules regarding what can be uploaded and how. Try searching WP:NFCC in Wikipedia, you'll find out.
- As for File:Google Chrome Screenshot.png, it is a copyright violation. It has been nominated for deletion three times. But the admins here are not very bright. (However, there is also another theory about that image: The theory says it is actually a screenshot Chromium, that is showing the Google Chrome article and a wrong name too. I don't believe this theory is right, but I can't conclusively disprove it.)
- Best regards,

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:To Jesus Christ, Our Sovereign king.ogg
editThis file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:To Jesus Christ, Our Sovereign king.ogg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |

Rollback granted
editI have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Commons:Rollback. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks. Majora (talk) 21:42, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
Not compromised
editDude, my account isn't compromised. I am ticked about the way that I was treated at JJMC89 and Ammarpad's rfas so i've been angry over the last week on Wikipedia. I was bored so i thought I'd share cool stuff with you and Cyberpower (who i see around) to maybe lighten my mood up. I have asperberger's and I don't know how to communicate with others well. I was trying to make your day more interesting. You ignored me agreeing with Gerda ardent in November about how valuable you are to this site and you've never thanked me for any edit ever. BTW, I do think that bad usernames should be reported before they edit if the username is blatant enough, you told me in July that was wrong but sometimes IAR says otherwise.
