Thanks for uploading Image:Jewish warrior memorial.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a gallery of images you have uploaded at the Gallery by choosing 'commons.wikimedia.org' and typing your username in. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Admin?

Hi Gilgamesh! I was just wondering if you are interested in becoming an administrator here.

he.wp is in the top 20 Wikipedias and yet we have very few Hebrew users here. A Hebrew-speaking admin can act as a bridge between the Commons community and the he.wp community and encourage users there to use the Commons, as well as help explain the rules to them. Another important problem is that of translation, especially since Hebrew is a RTL script and non-latin (quite scary to people who only speak English ;)). Most admins don't do very much translation, but they can also identify people in their local projects who are happy to help. The more of the interface and help files that we have translated, the more comfortable Hebrew speakers will feel when using the Commons.

Despite all that I've said, being an admin here is quite a laid-back affair. Many admins are quite inactive here -- it's totally up to you how much you do (but obviously, we consider the more, the better!). Even if you intend to do very little, having a Hebrew admin as a point of contact for non-Hebrew speaking admins is extremely useful.

So... what do you think? I would be very happy to nominate you, or if you like, you can self-nominate. The guidelines are at Commons:Administrators. Let me know what you think.

(PS - I am asking Rotemliss as well, but don't feel that if they nominate, you don't have to -- it's certainly much better to have two than one!)
