Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Alexander Shatulin!

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.

Were the "problems" real problems, or were they just because the thumbnails hadn't yet caught up with the dimensions of the new file version? In the latter case, the problem usually fixes itself after a few days (and may not appear to all people browsing the article); if this seems to be taking too long, you can help it along by "purging" and/or refreshing your local caches...

1) When it have been cropped the images used in templates became too large in some language versions (example). 2) After the first reverting aspect ratio of some thumbnails haven't been reverted. Cash cleanup had no effect. Alexander Shatulin (talk) 10:01, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Category: Coonskin caps

Do you not believe, we should let it in the upper category: Bearskin hats, because (from English Wikipedia): "In many languages, the raccoon is named for its characteristic dousing behavior in conjunction with that language's term for bear, for example Waschbär in German, orsetto lavatore in Italian, mosómedve in Hungarian and araiguma in Japanese". In German the family "Procyonidae" is called Kleinbären (little bears)? Regards from there --Kürschner (talk) 22:29, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Taking into consideration zoological systematics, raccoons are not bears. Vernacular names in some languages may be misleading. Also Wikimedia Commons is international project, not German, Italian, Japanese etc. Finally bearskin cap and coonskin cap are different sorts of headgear, usually not associated one with other (see English Wikipedia articles).
