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.

Copyrights

Regardless of what you were told by Elsevier and the authors of the article (and we would need proof that you were actually told this), copyright is complicated. If you do not know the exact reason why an image is properly licensed, you should assume it is not properly licensed.

The copyright on the letter from Clara to Mussolini did not belong to Elsevier, or to Brenner or Lechner or De Caro. Therefore, they could not be the ones to release its copyright. It was copyright of Max Clara. Only his heirs could release its copyright; in the absence of such, it must be assumed to remain in copyright until 70 years after his death. Since he died in 1966, the image cannot be on Wikimedia Commons until January 1, 2037.

(Although there are some more abstruse details that may make the situation more complex; I'll bring this to the attention of a Commons administrator.) DS (talk) 14:57, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

The image of Clara's examination results - although it had the wrong license information, I was able to correct it. So that one's not a problem. DS (talk) 15:22, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
