WHO-openaccess

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, WHO-openaccess!

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.

Thanks for uploading File:Eng-mythbusters-covid19-(5)-supplements.png. 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.

File:FACT- Antibiotics CANNOT prevent or treat COVID-19.png, typo

Hello,

There is a typo in that picture. In the second paragraph on the left, we should read "(2019-nCoV)" (o in lowercase), and not "(2019-nC0V)" (zero).

Regards,

File:FACT- Exposing yourself to the sun or temperatures higher than 25°C DOES NOT protect you from COVID-19.png, typo

Hello,

There is a typo in that picture. There should be a degree symbol (°) after 25 in "25C degrees".

Regards,

Cantons-de-l'Est (talk) 14:49, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

File:FACT- Studies show hydroxychloroquine does not have clinical benefits in treating COVID-19.png, typo

Hello,

There is a typo in that picture. The text on the right should not end with a period (not "COVID-19.", but "COVID-19"), just like the other pictures in the FACT serie.

Regards,

Cantons-de-l'Est (talk) 18:37, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

File:FACT- There are currently no drugs licensed for the treatment or prevention of COVID-19.png, typo

Hello,

There is a typo in that picture. It is not "medecines", but "medicines".

Regards,

Cantons-de-l'Est (talk) 18:06, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

File:FACT- There are no medicines that can prevent or treat COVID-19.png, date

Hello,

Without a date, the information in that picture is meaningless because there is a vaccine as of 20th December 2020.

File:FACT- Vaccines against pneumonia DO NOT protect against the COVID-19 virus.png, date

Hello,

Without a date, the information in that picture is meaningless because there is a vaccine as of 20th December 2020.

File:WHO EN Ask-WHO wash fruit veg COVID-19 17April2020.png, fruit

Hello,

Like "vegetables", the word "fruit" must be in the plural form. I see it twice in that file.

Other images or media that you would like for French?

@Cantons-de-l'Est: Thanks for all the great feedback on the infographics -- WHO-openaccess will respond directly on those. As you are looking at the illustrations on French Wikipedia for COVID -- are there other kinds of files you would like to be using? Where are there gaps for illustration? Is there anything else we should try to find and upload? Astinson (WMF) (talk) 15:46, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Astinson (WMF), Thank you for the feedback. Up to now, I don't have any idea. However, I'll keep in mind the offer :-). Cantons-de-l'Est (talk) 15:49, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

They have a much easier time uploading new content, if we have specific asks: see Commons_talk:World_Health_Organization, Astinson (WMF) (talk) 16:07, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

File:WHO EN Ask-WHO washing clothes linen 2 COVID-19 23April2020.png, missing word

Hello,

I read (fifth bullet) "... soak linen in a 0.05% chlorine for approximately...". It must be "... soak linen in a 0.05% chlorine solution for approximately...".
