Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Merikanto!

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.

Diagrammien alkuperä

Hei, merkitsetkö tekemiesi diagrammien tietoihin, mistä lähteestä kyseiset arvot ovat peräisin. Pelkkä diagrammi on aika yhtä tyhjän kanssa ja epäluotettava, jos sen tietojen alkuperää ei voi tarkistaa ja hakea lisätietoa. –Makele-90 (talk) 18:24, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Merikanto~commonswiki

Is User:Merikanto~commonswiki an old account of yours? If so, is from you. Nice work. I just replaced "code" with "syntaxhighlight". Have not tried if it actually works. Which Debian version was it? ScotXW (talk) 15:14, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

SVG File:40750bp europe precipitation annual 1.svg

Quality issue Thank you for your submission of image File:40750bp europe precipitation annual 1.svg. I have noticed that the SVG you uploaded is poorly traced and is now listed in Category:SVG images with poorly traced elements. While most submissions are useful, do you think you might be able to supply a better quality version of the same, or similar content? You can either upload an improved version or simply allow the file to be deleted. If you 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. In all cases, please do not take this message personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you, and happy editing! --Jonteemil (talk) 23:02, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Partial solar eclipse 1.png

This file may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Partial solar eclipse 1.png, 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!
