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. 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. |

Autopatroller
editYou have made a lot of good work in Commons and your edits do not need to be patrolled anymore. So I just made you autopatroller. Thank you for your work! Taivo (talk) 10:14, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Mayur-Paul.webp. 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). Warning: unless the permission information is given, the file may be deleted after seven days. Thank you. |
SL Photo-License
editSL has a liberal permission of photography. Its is allowed generally. Could you revoke your attempt to delete those pics please? 1 https://secondlife.com/app/tos/tos.php Peli (talk) 02:23, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- Evidence of that? You claim the images are entirely your own work, which is clearly false. If nothing else you should link to the aforementioned permission. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:24, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- There's also the entirely separate issue of Ballet Pixelle's copyright in their dance moves. I won't be revoking my attempt, and we'll see what whichever admin handles the request after a week thinks. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:25, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
- These pics dont show 'moves' , they show stills. So where are they listed now? Where will the 'discours' be held? Why would these pics not be my own work? Peli (talk) 02:33, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
I'm a little concerned about RblxFunkyGamer. Their contributions appear to be in good faith, but they don't seem to understand how to properly license their work (i.e. what belongs here) or what the scope of Wikimedia Commons is. Some of their replies to deletion requests and other licensing matters on their talk page seem to show a lack of understanding. Could someone deal properly with this user? 118.148.82.57 02:09, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- Feel free to take your concerns to COM:ANU. Their recent uploads seem harmless and in-scope (albeit not particularly valuable) to me. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:47, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Removal
editHi Pppery. Why did you remove the Category:Wikimedia Foundation former staff members? I worked for the Foundation in 2017 and 2019. --Gereon K. (talk) 21:26, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- I removed it from Category:User:Gereon K. because it was already on Category:Gereon Kalkuhl and didn't need to be on both. * Pppery * it has begun... 22:26, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
How to speedy delete a file
editHow can I request a speedy deletion of an author-requested file? I recently uploaded the file File:Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan & Party.png to Wikimedia Commons, but it appears to be of poor quality. I would like to request its deletion. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 14:51, 25 November 2024 (UTC)
- Tag it with {{Speedy}}. I've done that now. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:20, 25 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 16:30, 25 November 2024 (UTC)
