Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.BotMultichillT 05:57, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
- Image:Yellowstone National Park - Seismograph Pool.JPG is uncategorized since 3 May 2009.
- Thanks for the welcome! By the way, I thought I added a category using the built-in HotCat gadget, but I guess it didn't work. :\ --Ixfd64 (talk) 11:55, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
File tagging File:CopBlock1C.gif
[edit]This media may be deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading File:CopBlock1C.gif. 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. |

- The licensing information is a little hard to see, but it can be found on the bottom of the every page on the Cop Block site. It states:
© 2009-2014 by its author and licensed under a Creative Commons - Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license unless specified otherwise.
There is no exception listed on the page for the logos. --Ixfd64 (talk) 20:11, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not 100% sure that the company intended to release the logo (something that identifies their organization) under a free license, but it is in black and white on their website. Sorry about that. Cheers, TLSuda (talk) 21:59, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
- No problem. I also had doubts that an organization would release their logo under a free license, but if their copyright information says otherwise... --Ixfd64 (talk) 16:47, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

[edit]This media may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:24OCT01IWXSRV01.gif, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.
If you created the content yourself, enter If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so.

Thank you for uploading File:GSI Commerce.png to the Wikimedia Commons. I noticed that when you uploaded from another Wikimedia project, you left out some important information, or copied it incorrectly. In the future, please consider using CommonsHelper, a tool which automates the process of moving files over. Thank you,

If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution.

[edit]Copyright status: File:SoapUI Pro 3.6.1 screenshot.png
This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:SoapUI Pro 3.6.1 screenshot.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. |

Autopatrol given
[edit]Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. --4nn1l2 (talk) 17:41, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Fail re-upload to Wikimedia
[edit]Good evening, I am writing as a beginner who can not translate a photo from Wikipedia to Wikimedia:( If necessary, I wanted to translate the logo of AMD Eyefinity, but the original owner put there restrictions on the license.

Thanks for putting the Instagram link, but I have a concern. The link is inaccessible without an Instagram account and the page can't even be archived via archive.org or archive.is. I'm thinking that the uploader will have to send a VTR ticket just to confirm. This is just in case the uploader decides to change the license or something. FunnyMath (talk) 20:06, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think a VRT ticket is needed in this case. If evidence of permission is accessible on the web, then a trusted user can review the license and verify a work is free. I'll add a {{LicenseReview}} tag to the file. Ixfd64 (talk) 20:14, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'm trying to get other people's opinion on this just to confirm. See Commons:Village_pump/Copyright#Permission_given_via_Instagram_link FunnyMath (talk) 20:18, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Plus, even license reviewers can make mistakes. For example, today a license reviewer mistakenly confirmed the license for a video as CC-BY-SA 4.0 instead of CC-BY 4.0. See [2] and File:Chinese balloon fall.webm FunnyMath (talk) 20:36, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hello sir,
Today a Bot user nominated a file that I uploaded for deletion. Since the user was a bot, I figured it was best to ask another user for help.
The file that I mentioned is an insignia, which is correctly reference by the license tag {insignia}
.
Thanks for your help. Przelijpdahl (talk) 20:18, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Przelijpdahl: That's because {{Insignia}} does not indicate the work's copyright status. It only states that there are non-copyright restrictions. You need to include a standard license tag as well. Ixfd64 (talk) 21:28, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

RfC: Third-party images published by the National Weather Service
[edit]I've now reviewed 1,000 images uploaded under the rationales expressed in the {{PD-NWS}} template and requested deletion of several.
The arguments for deletion, and to keep, are now following repetitive, predictable patterns and it would greatly help all involved if we could centralise discussion and obtain some wider community input.
Therefore, I have opened an RfC to gather opinions. Apologies in advance: it's long and detailed, but is frankly nothing compared to the words and time expended by all parties up to this point. Probably the most crucial issue revolves around how we interpret a general disclaimer published at weather.gov (Q.1 in the RfC).
Your advice is greatly appreciated! --Rlandmann (talk) 22:16, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
Great sleuthing!
[edit]Hi Danny -- thank you for the excellent detective work on finding those defunct sources!
If you're not already aware of the Commons:WikiProject Public Domain/PD-NWS review/File review statuses page, there are a heap more there in a similar situation, under "1.2 Copyright and license unverifiable" and "3.1 Context missing or unnattrbuted in source". If you're so inclined, I'd love you to take a look please! --Rlandmann (talk) 13:17, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, will do! Ixfd64 (talk) 16:05, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for the exciting discoveries so far! --Rlandmann (talk) 11:14, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- I also dropped a note at en:Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Weather in case anyone there could help. Ixfd64 (talk) 00:19, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
