Plant images[edit]
Thank you for providing images to Commons.
Please add them on relevant pages (named by Latin name) instead of generic Category:Plantae which could become too overcrowded.
Thank you.

Morchella esculenta[edit]
I think, your pictures Image:Morchella esculenta.jpg and Image:Morchella esculenta 2.jpg show Morchella conica. --BerndH 2 July 2005 19:31 (UTC)
- Your pictures do indeed show Morchella conica. Could you please reupload them with this name? --BerndH 20:21, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
User rename[edit]
I've done your rename request. villy ♦ ✎ 23:21, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
This file isn't working with the SXD format. It's missing and I've placed a speedy tag on the page. I re-uploaded the same file to the commons for testing, but it didn't work appearing. I'll upload a same file with the SVG format. However, the SXD doesn't apply here. -- ADNghiem501 05:50, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

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 20:13, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Please help replace this outdated license[edit]
Hello!
Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.
The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.
Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.
The images we would like you to check are:

File:Meripilus giganteus[edit]
Hallo Metju,
(ich hoffe es ist okay, dass ich dich auf deutsch anspreche)
ich habe deine drei "Meripilus giganteus" Fotos umbenennen lassen und nach Laetiporus sulphureus verschoben, da es sich bei den Pilzen um Schwefelporlinge handelt. Beste Grüße --Wer?Du?! (talk) 14:58, 7 June 2012 (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 Metju. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Metju~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

Lunaria annua (illustration)
Hi Metju~commonswiki, I suggest that the leftmost image above shows Lunaria annua, not Lunaria rediviva. The flowers of Lunaria annua are typically magenta, those of L. rediviva typically a very light bluish purple. The fruits look quite different, of course, but I cannot see any. The upper leaves of Lunaria annua are typically sessile, those of L. rediviva are all stalked. The ratio of length to width in leaves (especially the lower ones) is bigger in L. annua than in L. rediviva (which has much larger leaves). In your case, the leaf form is quite typical for Lunaria annua. I changed the ID. The image must be renamed. Best regards --Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 13:15, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
