Image:Install indic languague windows2000.JPG[edit]

Hi. Inoticed Image:Install indic languague windows2000.JPG was deleted although it is currently used on tamil wikipedia. Perhaps you should upload it again. I'll try to make sure it doesn't get deleted again. / Fred Chess 08:30, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A PNG version, without any non-free icons, would be better though. -- Duesentrieb(?!) 08:50, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Fred Chess & Duesentrieb, I have uploaded with PNG format and also updated the Tamil wikipedia site. Thanks a lot for notifying the deletion--Umapathy 03:56, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Screenshot of of a non-free programs[edit]

On Commons is not allowed to upload screenshots of non-free programs, so I have inserted Template:Screenshot (a "speedy deletion" template) into some of your image pages. However you can probably upload them on your wikipedia. --Qualc1 21:19, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Umapathy,

I like the map a lot. Would you please consider inserting the name of the country in Sinhala writing as well, so we have it in all three official languages? You might use the following picture as a source: [1]. That would be great!

Cheers, Krankman 00:59, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Krakman, Thanks for you appreciation I wrote Tamil using UNICODE and I would like to use to UNICODE for the Sinhala as well. Once I find good and free IME (Input Method Editior) I will implement this. --Umapathy 16:34, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ski Lanka[edit]

I just saw Image:Sri Lanka Districts.png and I'd like to create a SVG version of it. Do you have it in any other format then png? --Thire 07:50, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Sri_Lanka_Trincomalee_Somadevi_Vidyalayam.JPG. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is 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 content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

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 {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license 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.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Hello, Umapathy~commonswiki!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

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.
