		Step 3: Image must be renamed as Name of the Monument -Location -State Name -Serial Number (Example: Taj Mahal -Agra -Uttar Pradesh -DSC 0001.jpg).
		Step 4: Write down what you've photographed in the description part. Record the site's name and check the monument ID.
		Step 5: Images will be without any sign or watermark or border.
		Step 6: Don't have a Wikimedia Commons account yet? Create one – takes just a few moments! Make sure that your email address is confirmed.
		Step 7: Go to this link, find the monuments from the lists of states and union territories, and upload your photos to Wikimedia Commons from there. The upload process will automatically detect the Monument ID.
