Image Tagging Image:Natalia_Alexeievna_of_Russia.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Natalia_Alexeievna_of_Russia.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 Attribution-ShareAlike license 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.

Tip: Categorizing images
edit
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.BotMultichillT (talk) 06:04, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Русскоязычное описание
editМожет быть, вы перепишете русскоязычное описание, а не просто удалите его? Спасибо.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 16:39, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- Я его не "просто удаляю", я оставляю слова "доска объявлений", что является вполне самодостаточным описанием объекта (можно было еще привести текст надписи, но он и так прекрасно читается и для русскоязычного излишен). Вы же пишете некий трактат с ссылками об истории Терлецкого парка (это не формат Викисклада) и то, что по этому поводу "автор фотографии считает". --Mitrius (talk) 17:54, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- Описания должны быть в формате Викисклада, то есть очень подробными. Commons:First steps/Quality and description — «descriptive information about what it shows and how it was made... please provide brief historical background». Commons:Valued image criteria — «There should be a full and informative description of what the image depicts, along with any relevant auxiliary information». Commons:Image guidelines — «have meaningful title and description». Нигде не говорится, что описание должно быть очень коротким. Чтобы выяснить это, я специально спрашивал об этом у сообщества, и сообщество считает так. «You don't need to worry about any limit. You should describe... in less than 200 words... Some historical images are richly annotated with details of source and description... Lengthy descriptions that actually describe the image are good...» Поэтому я верну русскоязычное полное описание, или же предлагаю вам переписать его так, чтобы оно стало ещё полнее и ещё понятнее. Спасибо.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:11, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- На ВикиСкладе нет никаких запретов на оригинальные исследования фотографов, поэтому я оставлю то, что считает автор фотографии, потому что это объясняет его причины, а среди причин не было пропаганды шовинизма. Official guideline говорит: «Commons is not Wikipedia, and files uploaded here do not need to comply with the no original research requirements».--PereslavlFoto (talk) 18:13, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- В таком понимании это "хость что угодно". Админ викисклада писал, в частности: However, your descriptions generally should not turn into essays, and if they are off-topic or it seems like you are writing quasi-encyclopedic content from your own idiosyncratic views, that will typically be removed. In short, the permission to do some original research is not blanket permission to put anything here that you like; common sense applies, and this remains a collectively developed wiki, so some degree of consensus applies, и проч. --Mitrius (talk) 08:11, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
- В целом верно, поэтому я и привёл в описании ссылки. Таким образом, это не было own idiosyncratic views.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 09:44, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Germanos, not Gregory V
editI think that the person depicted in this portrait that you have uploaded is not Patriarch Gregory V, but Germanos, Metropolitan of Old Patras. Check here. Cheers!
