Image Tagging Image:Tainan-station.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Tainan-station.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

- It's not enough to say "from English Wikipedia". You have to provide the original source and author. If the author is an user from that Wikipedia, you have to say it and use the proper license tag (GFDL-user-w or GFDL-en). If not, you have to mention where it was download from and who the author is.
- If you took that image from en: and there was no mention there of the original author and source, I'm afraid we just cannot accept it, because we have no means to check the license. Please read Commons:Licensing. Regards. --Dodo 10:18, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Do you have a better version of File:AT-3 over Kangshan AB.jpg?
edit
If you can supply the same exact image as File:AT-3 over Kangshan AB.jpg at a larger resolution (or media at a higher bitrate, etc.), please just upload it over the original, users will get the new higher quality version with no further effort on your part. If on the other hand, the content is only similar, it is best to select a new image name, as there may be uses already where some aspect of the existing media was key to the usage. In the latter case, if you can provide a crosslink reference to the new image in the older one and vice versa, that will be extremely helpful.
Again, thank you very much for your contribution, it is appreciated.High Contrast (talk) 22:20, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

File tagging File:Jaguar-ec-3-11.jpg
editThis media was probably deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading File:Jaguar-ec-3-11.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Jaguar-ec-3-11.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

IPA symbol ː
editHello Mike-tango, could you please take a look upon your keyboard preferences? You always use the IPA symbol ː (this is now the only file that uses that symbol in the file name) instead of normal :. I suppose that you might use the English keyboard "International Phonetic Alphabet – SIL" instead of the native keyboard. You can click into this edit window and after that there into the input tool window, see the symbol at the right bottom of this text window (it appears after clicking into the edit window while typing here), where you can see that and where you can also use another language keyboard. Click upon "Use native keyboard (or upon another language), otherwise each : that you type will become an IPA ː. I noticed this phenomenon myself just now and needed some time to find out that I used the wrong keyboard and that's why every : automatically became this IPA symbol. Maybe there had been any click there that I didn't notice, and maybe you also didn't notice it, that's why I'm telling you now. :-) These are two different symbols, as you can see by typing a file with this symbol like FileːButton API ː.png. Categories won't appear with CategoryːEmblems of the French Air Force (or any other such link) either, 'cause these links go into the gallery namespace. See also w:Colon (punctuation), you are using the IPA triangular colon ː instead of the normal colon :. The only categories and titles with that symbol except the API file above are now your categories, I nominated the redirects for speedy deletion. They are not useful, because people normally don't use IPA symbols, when they type titles.
By the way, also : in categories (like Category:Emblems of the French Air Force : base aérienne) aren't very good, because : indicates the namespace in the titles (File:, Category:), so it's better to use the symbol "–" in the category name instead. That's why I moved the categories to Category:Emblems of the French Air Force – base aérienne and similar category names.
