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 06:07, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

- Bonjour,
- J'aimerais savoir pourquoi mon montage est accusé d'être un infraction au copyright? Il s'agit d'une oeuvre personnelle.
- Que puis-je faire pour remédier au mal entendu ?
- --Orbitale (talk) 21:51, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
- Hello, image you uploaded is posted long ago at http://www.metrodemontreal.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10296 by Jean-Marie Hachey. Is this you? Can you please post from the same account somewhere on metrodemontreal.com forum to proof identity? Thank you
- No, I'm not Jean-Marie Hachey. This person probably get my image to publish it in this forum. Why do you think that this map is his creation? Sorry if I cannot clearly explain, my first langage is french.--Orbitale (talk) 23:02, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
- Can you please point to your post where Jean-Marie Hachey could take your image, because now I seems that he is the author --Justass (talk) 23:23, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
- I upload the map on ImageShack. It is a online media hosting (hébergeur). Images on this kind of server are accessible via search engines as Google. I suppose this guy found it. --Orbitale (talk) 01:05, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry but your proofs of authorship is inconclusive, place point to the post/webpage where you linked to this map previously then Jean-Marie Hachey --Justass (talk) 06:53, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
- Votre système de vérification de source ne vaut pas grand chose... Vous supprimez une image sans avoir de preuves qu'elle n'est pas la mienne! Ce genre de situation ne me donne pas le goût de continuer à participer au projet Commons...! Very bad. --Orbitale (talk) 15:12, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Recadrage
editSalut,
Juste te dire que généralement on évite de téléverser une nouvelle version d'une photo comme tu as fait. Il est plus approprié de simplement télécharger la photo, de la modifier et de télécharger une nouvelle image complètement. De cette façon, on ne pert pas l'image de Couillard et Normandeau. D'autant plus que le titre de l'image est File:Couillard et Normandeau.jpg pour une photo de Normandeau seule... — Riba (talk) 21:29, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- Oui mais si j'aurais réimporter un nouveau fichier, j'aurais perdu l'autorisation non ?--Orbitale (talk) 00:15, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Quelle autorisation ? Comme toutes les images de Commons sont en licence libre, tu peux les modifier librement à condition simplement de citer l'auteur.
Tu as simplement à télécharger l'image. Faire ton recadrage. Ensuite, tu choisis sur la page Commons:Téléverser l'option « œuvre dérivée d'un fichier sur Commons ». Puis, tu suis les étapes nécessaires. La référence à l'ancienne image va se faire automatiquement. — Riba (talk) 23:54, 24 October 2010 (UTC)- J'ai fait la correction. — Riba (talk) 01:12, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

File:Lacite-limoilou.jpg
editBonjour,
Il semble que l'image File:Lacite-limoilou.jpg, en tant qu'ensemble, ne peut pas être offerte sous licence GFDL, ni sous les versions des licences CC-by-sa antérieures à la version 3.0. La raison en est que deux des quatre photos utilisées ne permettent pas la GFDL, mais sont offertes par leurs auteurs respectifs seulement sous une licence CC-by-sa. De plus, aucune des quatre photos ne permet la licence CC-by-sa de version 1.0 et trois des photos ne permettent pas les versions 2.0 et 2.5, mais seulement la version 3.0. En conséquence, si le montage complet, comme ensemble, est lui-même offert sous sa propre licence pour libre réutilisation, la seule licence possible pour ce faire est une licence qui soit commune à toutes les images sources utilisées, c'est-à-dire dans ce cas-ci seulement la licence CC-by-sa 3.0. Donc, pour ce montage global, il semble qu'il faudrait enlever l'offre de toutes les autres licences, c'est-à-dire autres que la licence CC-by-sa 3.0. À moins d'obtenir une permission spéciale écrite de chacun des quatre auteurs. -- Asclepias (talk) 13:43, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
P.S. : Il existe un problème similaire pour l'image File:Pointe-au-Père montage.png, où une des trois photos sources est offerte par son auteur seulement sous licence CC-by-sa de version 2.5. Il faudrait donc enlever la GFDL et les versions CC-by-sa 1.0 et 2.0. Il y avait déjà eu un problème similaire aussi pour l'image File:Sainte-foy-sillery-cap-rouge montage.png, mais je vois qu'un utilisateur dans cette modification a pris l'initiative d'en enlever les licences contrevenantes. -- Asclepias (talk) 15:03, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- Bonjour... Je ne connais pas très bien le système de licence et je ne peux pas réellement vous aider pour cause. Si vous pouvez faire les modifications nécessaires, cela serait très gentil.
- Pour ne pas qu'il y ait d'ambiguïté, il serait préférable que vous modifiiez vous-même vos déclarations de licence sur les pages de description (pour que l'historique montre que c'est bien vous qui modifiez les déclarations de licence relatives à vos montages, et non quelqu'un d'autre qui fait des déclarations de licence à votre place). Mais ce n'est pas compliqué. Pour les deux montages concernés, dans la section licence, il vous suffit de remplacer {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-3.0,2.5,2.0,1.0}} par {{self|cc-by-sa-3.0}}. Et alors tout devrait être ok et conforme au choix des auteurs de toutes les images utilisées. -- Asclepias (talk) 04:10, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Maps of administrative regions of Québec
editHello! You uploaded several maps of administrative regions of Québec, e.g. File:LocationMauricie.png. The original version has got a PD license.

This is not allowed with CC-BY-SA files: If you alter, transform, or build upon this work, you may distribute the resulting work only under the same or similar license to this one.

Your account will be renamed
editHello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Orbitale. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Orbitale~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
