Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Arial Bold!

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.

File:Rogers Mall Plan.jpg

How did you get a hold of File:Rogers Mall Plan.jpg? That is very much not your own work. I know because I made that map way back in 2002. Please understand that anything uploaded here has to be your own work, or something with a valid license that indicates it can be shared. You can't just pull random images off Google Images and claim them as your own work. TenPoundHammer (talk) 04:30, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

I work with Spiegel properties and received it directly from their archives. 74.204.120.66 18:30, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

YOu got a map I made from someone else's archives? Explain. TenPoundHammer (talk) 19:58, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I run the social media page for this property and I have access to the archives for the mall and this was one of the files they had. I spoke with the owners before uploading the photos and page information. 74.204.120.66 20:04, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

You do realize I drew that map, right? I remember doing it way back in 2002. And you are taking claim for work I did. TenPoundHammer (talk) 20:09, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Then could you please upload the map? 74.204.120.66 20:12, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Here is a blog post from 2006 linking to my old Angelfire account upload of it. None of this changes the fact that you are wrongly claiming my work as if it were yours. Did you make the map? No. So don't upload it and claim it as your own work. TenPoundHammer (talk) 20:14, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
