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 08:31, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

File:Wojciech_Lobodzinski.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

"Eric" from Picasa, http://picasaweb.google.com/gusuyanziwu/2008#5235753072916588370, does not have any copyrights on this image. He just copied it from AP, Associated Press, a professional photo agency. The image is therefore deleted. --Martin H. (talk) 17:12, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

editHe is not the photographer of his photos, he toke them from http://www.fcslovanliberec.cz/cz/multimedia/fotogalerie/2008-2009.php, removed the watermark and claimed the photos as his own work. --Martin H. (talk) 16:18, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Copyvio vs No Permission
editHi Oleola. I noticed you tagged copyvio to the file with the reason that it comes from a source. Well, the uploader "admits" that the image comes from that source, since the uploader provided it in the source field. For this reason, tagging it {{No permission}} would be better. Thanks, --ZooFari 19:57, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
this is just to inform you that I've closed the DR as we've received a confirmation of the permission given by the website back in 2006 (ticket #2011033010009257). Regards, odder (talk) 19:26, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you
editHi! Thank you for identifying a lot of copyright violations. Your work is highly appreciated. --Polarlys (talk) 15:48, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- +1. But please be sure to notify the uploader (missed here). :-) You can use the quickdelete gadget (see your preferences) to do this automatically. Cheers --Saibo (Δ) 02:58, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Polska - Węgry
editCześć. Wiem, że prawie równocześnie wrzucaliśmy te same zdjęcia, szczególnie chodzi mi o zdjęcia Dudki i Błaszczykowskiego. Piszę jednocześnie, bo ja chciałem wszystkie te zdjęcia wrzucić na raz, ale w nocy przy 27 zdjęciach zaciął się ten nowy interface Commons i przeszło tylko pięć zdjęć, resztę dołożyłem rano. Rozumiem, że w efekcie twoje zdjęcie zostało wrzucone de facto wcześniej, ale jak już robiłem kompleksowo cały mecz, tych prawie 30 zdjęć, to pomyślałem, że nie ma co podchodzić do sprawy ambicjonalnie, kto wklei więcej zdjęć i że lepiej by było, gdyby były one ponazywane w jednym formacie. Chodzi mi o to, że dla większej systematyzacji na koću nazwy wrzucam rok i nie używam polskich znaków, bo te na pewno mogą sprawiać problem użytkownikom bez polskiej klawiatury. Co do zdjęć, to są przycinane z tego samego formatu, więc nie ma różnic w ich jakości, a różnice w kadrowaniu są minimalne. Bez sensu jest więc trzymanie obu wersji. Mam nadzieję, że zauważyłeś/łaś (?), że stworzyłem odpowiednią kategorie dla wszystkich zdjęć z tego meczu. Pozdrawiam z nadziejami na jakieś normalne wybrnięcie z tej sytuacji.

- Dobra, też próbowałem popracować nad kontrastem tych zdjęć, ale widocznie bez wystarczającego skutku. Nie wiem na czym polegać ma przekierowanie na zdjęciach, bo nigdy z takim się nie spotkałem dlatego nie bardzo mogę się do takiej propozycji ustosunkować. Miałem nadzieję na w miarę spójne nazewnictwo, ale skoro o to ma się rozbijać cała sprawa, to lepiej te dwa zdjęcia wyrzucić. ARvєδuι + 19:15, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
Dear Oleola, the file 'Azerbaijani female soldiers in Nagorno Karabakh (Azerbaijan).jpg' was tagged as lacking permission, and I was contacted as its uploader and asked to email the explicit permission to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. I did exactly as I was told. I sent an email with the copyright holder of the photo giving his permission to use this image and his contact information. In spite of that, I logged in to Commons today only to find out that the file was deleted. May I confirm that my email was received and possibly request that the photo is readded?

Hi! You started above deletion request - but without any reason. Please add a reason why these images should be deleted. Thx. Gunnex (talk) 00:55, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
- Upps... my fault. Gunnex (talk) 00:57, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
copyvio-tagging
editHi Oleola, thanks for detecting File:Slipk.jpg as a copyvio. However, when manually tagging suspected copyvios, please write 1=http://..., not source= or url= as the latter prevent display of the allaged source address in the deletion window and unnecessarily increases the work-load for the admins. --Túrelio (talk) 08:41, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

editYou're unbelievable, i've already discussed this matter since 2014 and I told the fellow user that the owner of his image gave me the premission to upload this image. I spoke with him in Facebook. It's Krenar Hajdini's work and he gave me OK for this image.--Sadsadas (talk) 18 May 2018.
