First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions 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 (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. 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 (webchat).

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Thanks so much for contributing to Wiki Loves Earth!

Hi there! Sara from Wikimedia UK here - just wanted to say thanks so much for submitting content for Wiki Loves Earth in Scotland this year :) Sara Thomas (WMUK) (talk) 13:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Sarah, I'm really enjoying getting out and photographing wildlife, I hope the photos are of interest and decent enough quality, I'm no expert, just love my camera and wildlife, Emma Send in the clouds (talk) 13:38, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Well hope you had lots of fun - delighted by having over 700 photos from Scotland in our first year of running the competition, thanks so much for taking part :) Sara Thomas (WMUK) (talk) 12:52, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

oh also - posted before I could finish my message - you were our top uploader for Scotland! Sara Thomas (WMUK) (talk) 12:53, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi Sarah that's great, I really enjoyed contributing and getting out with my camera, thanks for this, I don't imagine any of my shots will have been 'award winning' but I just love the freedom of photographing wildlife and sharing my little finds, thanks again for your message, with best wishes, Emma Send in the clouds (talk) 13:24, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
