Hello, and thank your for sharing your files with Commons. There seems to be a problem regarding the description and or licensing of this particular file. Could you please resolve these problems, which are described on the page linked in above? Thank you. --Copyright, sources and licences[edit]
Hello,
You have to provide clear source and licence to your images. It was not done, that's why it was deleted. Regards, Yann 10:49, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hello,
- A link to Wikipedia is not sufficient. Please read the documentation howto include documents into Commons: Commons:Primeiros passos/Qualidade e descrição, Commons:Critérios para inclusão, Commons:Licenciamento. Regards, Yann 16:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello,
As you can see the image Image:Forte de Copacabana.jpg has a proper source and licence. Regards, Yann 16:30, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello, It is OK now. Thanks, Yann 16:40, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Please provide accurate descriptions for your photographs[edit]
Hello, please can you provide accurate descriptions for your photos of guns at the Brazilian Army museum. Without accurate descriptions the photos are really not much use, which is a shame, but Wikipedia is intended as an encyclopedia and the description is what gives the photo meaning. regards. Rod.

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 05:59, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Abrivio. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Abrivio~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
