First steps tutorial

Our first steps tour and our FAQ 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. You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold contributing here and assume good faith for the intentions of others. This is a wiki—it is really easy.

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 (direct access). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at Commons talk:Licensing.

Goodies, tips and tricks
  • Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities.
  • All your uploads are stored in your personal gallery
  • Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~
  • Use the CommonSense tool to find good categories for your files (then other people can find them too!)
  • To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:Image:Foo.jpg]], which produces: Image:Foo.jpg
  • If you're copying files from another project, be sure to use the CommonsHelper
Made a mistake?
  • Did you want to rename or move a file? Simply upload the file again and mark the old one like this: {{bad name|correct name}}
  • For more information read the full deletion guidelines
(P.S. Would you like to provide feedback on this message?)

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Hello, Peter Damian!
 
Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

File:Small_castle.JPG edit

 
File:Small_castle.JPG has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

I'm afraid the deletion debate is archived and so I am unable to change it. I apologize for the personal attack, it was a breach of Commons etiquette. I have visited the Wikipedia review recently and must have picked up some their apalling standards of behavior. --Simonxag (talk) 20:35, 14 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

When a Wikipedian uses the term 'harassment', it should always be read with scare quotes. I.e. I am guilty of "harassment". Ha. Peter Damian (talk) 15:19, 11 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Unblocked. There was no warning given that the behaviour should stop, never mind that it might be considered harassment and result in a block. Beyond that the questions appear legitimate and relevant to a current discussion. Furthermore, removal of talkpage access for a couple of minor digs at admins is unwarranted, and removal of email access is entirely unexplained (possibly an error).
That said, I'm warning you now that further such questions or comments on Beta M's talk page may be considered harassment and therefore may result in a block. Such questions or comments can be posted as part of the COM:AN/U discussion, and Beta M may still answer them if he wishes to. Rd232 (talk) 22:46, 12 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
reblocked. The block was discussed by more than one admin, I have opened a discussion on the noticeboard on whether to unblock or not. --PierreSelim (talk) 09:19, 13 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

comments removed from User talk:Fæ edit

I have removed your comments from User talk:Fæ, as they are solely about English Wikipedia, and will surely cause further ill feeling here on Commons. If there is an issue here, hopefully someone in good standing at English Wikipedia will take the issue there. John Vandenberg (chat) 22:46, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

You are taking advantage of the fact I am banned on Wikipedia (for making complaints about administrator corruption there, which you promised to resolve in August 2009, but never did), to remove my further complaints about administrative corruption? John, that is fine. Peter Damian (talk) 06:29, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
For good or ill, this is a separate project. If you see problems on English Wikipedia, you'll need to share them with people who are in good standing on English Wikipedia, at let them decide whether to deal with them. Don't raise English Wikipedia issues here merely because the person also has an account here, otherwise you'll end up banned here too, and that path leads towards a global ban, and rightly so IMO. I approve of the emerging approach of "three project bans is a global ban", and hope that you'll avoid that as it is pointless martyrdom.
I have done more than my fair share to fix the problems there, and my efforts wrt you have often been thwarted by your own actions and decisions. John Vandenberg (chat) 12:27, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

This media may be deleted.
Thanks for uploading File:Wikipedia Treason and Plot.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.)

If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.

Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

JW's talk page edit

I have reverted your removal on JW's talk page with a warning. I have also responded here with a warning. I have also let another admin know here why I removed the thread in question. If that isn't enough, consider this fair warning that blocks will be handed out if a continuation of the campaign against the editor in question is continued here on Commons. This project is not an extension of sites you participate in, nor is it an avenue that can be used to harass others when the issue is shutdown on en.wp. russavia (talk) 01:45, 23 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

This is your last warning Peter, I have absolutely zero tolerance for harassment of other editors. If you continue doing what you have been doing on this project in harassing another editor, I will not hesitate to block you. russavia (talk) 05:08, 23 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Not so fast with the banhammer, Russavia. I'm certainly not seeing clear harassment here - Alison 07:18, 23 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Unblock request declined

This blocked user asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators has reviewed and declined this request. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without discussion.

Request reason: "Oh I see what happened. This was nothing to do with Russavia. I was creating a page to test a stable version concept. Then I inserted some imaginary vandalism of the kind you typically see on Wikimedia sites. That was all. I don't see what it has to do with user Russavia."
Decline reason: "Disruptive editing. This account hasn't been used since 2012 for anything but talkpage edits concerning Wikipedia issues, etc, and now to create an out of scope page where you insert a childish personal attack on Russavia.
