Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Strenatos!

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). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

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.

Hi!! ( uh i am very busy of examinations so uh is inactive) Strenatos (talk) 07:38, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Some information

Thank you for your contributions to Commons. However, I would highly recommend you add a source for flags you find in order to further ensure your images stay on Commons, since Commons is, well, to put it lightly a mess. For example, a Bhutanese municipality having a flag is like finding an owl in a desert in terms of rarity. Also, I would recommend you do not manually draw fonts in Arabic, as they can sometimes appear very crude especially if you do not know the language.

Elaborating on this: By the way, Qiqihar likely does not really have a flag. Sometimes Japanese cities like to have displays of sister city flags and sometimes they make up flags for them. So until we see a Qiqihar flag used by a governmental entity there, we will not know for sure if there is one in official use (keep in mind, no Chinese city can have a flag official as that is illegal, but they still can use them in a more-or-less official manner). Also, drawings of flags on the Internet should not really be added to Commons, that is unless it is pretty notable. Flagvisioner (talk) 02:40, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for all the advice, I shall try to make sure my future uploads are accurate. Strenatos (talk) 02:43, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Just to make it clear, I cannot stress this enough: Make sure to add sources for all files which cannot be easily found through a quick search on Google, including the files you have already uploaded such as Bendigo and Thimphu. Flagvisioner (talk) 03:40, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

File tagging File:Flag of Suva.png

This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Flag of Suva.png. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case. Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Flag of Suva.png]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

Uhhh thanks? Strenatos (talk) 23:40, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

I noticed you are using an auto scanner, which does not have fine details in it, and you also are uploading flags without a source. Such as the flag of Moroni, Paramaribo and more. You also re-uploaded a work by @djleonard14 and I: (@Strenatos). If possible could you provide credit or remove the file as you did not make it and it was taken down due to copyright issues. If you want to continue uploading svg flags, I recommend you use an actual program such as GIMP or an expensive tool such as Adobe Illustrator, which I use.

-Thank you for your contributions, and expect some uploads to be changed or taken down,

Yes Demon201x (talk) 02:31, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Uhm, I may not add your images as some time ago, I added the flag of Dodoma and dar es salaam to their respective pages (both flags were auto scanned) and then the flags were deleted. I had to remove them all from their pages which is a very tedious task Strenatos (talk) 04:00, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Flag of Kabul

Hi, I was wondering what the source of the Flag of Kabul is. The source cited on the image is a sketchy looking website and upon looking online, I could not find any source for this. Is there an official website that says this is the flag of Kabul? Pur 0 0 (talk) 21:00, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
