Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Pbritti!

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.

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Covenant between William & Mary’s Catholic Student Association and Canterbury, 1977.jpg

This file may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Covenant between William & Mary’s Catholic Student Association and Canterbury, 1977.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

About PD in US

Hi, do you know what actually is the Public Domain criteria in the US. Is it 75 years or 70 years from date of publication? Logosx127 (talk) 06:40, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

@Logosx127: The template you reinserted on the page says the year in it: 1927 at the latest. It's 95 years from publication unless mitigating circumstances exist (original author's death ~70 years ago, which doesn't apply when the author can't be identified).

As for why you get messages on your talk page: those are required notices. If I see an image is a copyright violation, I tag it immediately. Some images take days to be deleted, others seconds. I have no role in the deletion beyond tagging the image with rationale and following the policy to alert the uploader immediately. You don't get to stop a tag; a reviewer can establish if there's a copyright violation with near absolute certainty, so there is no chance to respond. You should only upload images you are certain are in the public domain.

Additionally, you should always provide clear information on the sources of your images. Many of those paintings you have uploaded might eventually go to a deletion discussion if you can't provide verifiable dates for when they were originally made and by whom they were made. ~ Pbritti (talk) 06:49, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 1 will end on 1 May 2023, 23:59:59 UTC.

Click here to vote now!

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
