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?

Image problems

Please stop uploading images that are clearly not freely licenced. We do not accept images with non-commercial or non-derivative restrictions. With so many of your previous uploads having been deleted quickly you should have got the message you were doing something wrong, so please be more careful in future as it wastes both your time and that of us volunteer reviewers. Thanks Ww2censor (talk) 14:06, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

The first time I wasn't aware of the one limitation. I emailed the photographers first and received permission via email. Thereafter, I added more links to their page. I emailed both photographers before during and after. I have asked them to upload their own work. I'm sticking with my own animations. Let me know if there are any changes you want me to make. Thnak you tommy ~~

We are pretty strict on copyright violations so you have to be careful but one link is quite sufficient; more does nothing to make the licence any more acceptable. We require such images to be under a free licence and if a photographer says something like OK go ahead and use my image on wikipedia, that is unfortunately not clear enough for us, so photographers can provide verification of their permission by following the procedure found at COM:OTRS. They can also change the licence on their Flickr pages and so long as it is reviewed with that free licence by a bot or human reviewer it will be good. Some of your images that have not been deleted are claimed as your own work when they are obvious maps created online. Whose maps are they? Google maps, Bing, OpenStreet? We need to know that and where did File:Cliftoningsanimation.webm and the other animations you just uploaded come from? I don't know if you really did create them yourself and even if you did the licence statement is not good enough because it does not define exactly which Creative Commons licence they are under. Some commercial use licences do not allow derivative work, so we don't allow that. BTW there are several properly licensed images on Geograph some of which might suit you Hope that helps.

Thank you for your valued input. I have left it to the photographers to upload their images themselves , it saves me alot of correspondence. All the animations are my own , at 50 frames per second 1080, it takes 1 or 2 days per seven second animation that excluding errors retakes, better images etc. Some animations are worked at simultaneously, so sometimes 2 are uploaded a day and then nothing for a week. The images are from openstreetmap, which I checked before uploading 4 weeks ago and other wikimedia commons editors approved, only satellite imaging is not allowed. I requested a deletion of one image due to being informed that it was a satellite image. Open street map uses bing and google satelite images which I wasn't aware of before checking.(wonder why openstreetmap lets users use them??) Anyway, I asked for deletion for that one image The 3d models were created in various 3d modelling suites including blender, sketch up ,carrara etc and them export to an animation renderer. All the work is my own, 4 (four) weeks worth, which I do because I'm not working at present so choose to spend my free time doing wikipedia projects. I have also joined opendata supported by environment agency and other gov agencies. The future looks very bright!! What would you suggest I do to support above. I have joinde various wiki groups that are requesting 3d formats and open mapping extentions. I look forward to contributing more 3d enhanced maps and interactive models. I look forward to your feedback, tommy ~~
