Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Shishirdasika!

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.

licensing of speech quality test samples

These much used standard speech quality test samples can hardly be your „own work“ that you claim them to be since there obviously are two different speakers recorded in there. Please state your source and make sure they are released under a free license in order not to have them removed from Wikimedia Commons.--Flugaal (talk) 12:00, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

File:Stamp on Black Buck.jpg

File:Stamp on Black Buck.jpg has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that. The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

File:Debian-kde.png

 

Pay attention to licensing

Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content: images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. File:Debian-kde.png seems to be free (or it would be proposed for deletion), but it was identified as having a wrong license. Usually, it is because a public domain image is tagged with a free license, or because the stated source or other information is not sufficient to prove the selected tag is correct. Please verify that you applied the correct license tag for this file. If you believe this file has the correct license, please explain why on the file discussion page.

The reason given by the user who added this tag is: Missing copying permissions for screenshot software.

I've added Template:GPLv2+ for KDE and Template:Trademarked for wallpaper, however I could not find the source for the wallpaper to verify it's free. (See below for another issue.) 80.221.159.67 07:25, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

File:Debian-kde.png

Wikimedia Commons does not accept derivative works of non-free works such as File:Debian-kde.png. It only accepts free content, which is images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Reproductions of copyrighted works are also subject to the same copyright, and therefore this file must unfortunately be considered non-free. For more information, please read Commons:Derivative works and Commons:Freedom of panorama. You can ask questions about Commons policies in Commons:Help desk. The file you added will soon be deleted. If you believe this file is not a derivative work of a non-free work, please explain why on the file's talk page.

The copying conditions of GPLv2+ do not allow creating derivative works licensed under the terms of CC BY-SA. 80.221.159.67 07:25, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

Your image has been reviewed and promoted Congratulations! Pillar at Warangal Fort.jpg, which was produced by you, was reviewed and has now been promoted to Quality Image status. If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Quality images candidates. We also invite you to take part in the categorization of recently promoted quality images. Comments Amazing to look at, but the people seen through the holes in the pillar are very distracting, especially the woman who's close to the pillar, so though the photo is of sufficient technical quality, I question whether it's a good enough portrayal of the subject. Is there any possibility you could go back and retake a photo when there are no nearby people visible through the holes? However, I'll promote the photo anyway because it's a pretty good photo and it's kind of fun to see the people through the holes even though they distract from the subject. -- Ikan Kekek 05:13, 28 December 2016 (UTC)  Comment I am afraid I can't.
