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.

Removal of categories you think are superfluous

You might want to read the Commons policy on this. Unless something changed, we're supposed to include all categories that the category should fall within, not merely the ones that it falls under with respect to the images within the category. - Bossanoven (talk) 01:40, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

I don't see any reason to include a player within a team-specific category if we have no pictures of the player with that specific team. Lepricavark (talk) 02:15, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

We're supposed to, though. That is the policy. What if future images include other teams? - Bossanoven (talk) 17:30, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

It seems to me that someone can add the categories when they become relevant. Lepricavark (talk) 17:32, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

Colours

Hi, first, thank you for noticing me about the revert. I really appreciate you took the time to write me about it. I didn't notice I broke the code. I added "gold" because, in the list, it's just "gold (color)" and it can't be used to decribe objects that are made OF gold. I saw there were "green" and "green (color)" (I dunno why) and I tried to copy and paste how it was done. Have a nice day. --Birdie (talk) 08:23, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

That makes sense. If I knew more about how code works, I'd try to figure it out. But sadly, that's not a part of my skillset. Lepricavark (talk) 15:05, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 1 will end on 1 May 2023, 23:59:59 UTC.

Click here to vote now!

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
