Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Tiadeeharrison!

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.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Figure 5 - Mike Levin.png

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Figure 5 - Mike Levin.png, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:Figure 5 - Mike Levin.png]]). If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, 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. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. 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!

copyright clarification

I have identified two possible things that I have made mistakes on, in which perhaps someone can help clarify for me.

1.) The legends/description of the images. I had originally taken the text from the images from the source that it was with, as each file was attributed to the author and I thought that their words would best describe their image. Is it alright if I put their entire description in double quote's or should I paraphrase the whole description? Also, for the file:images, I don't typically see a reference section, but should I include one?

2.) I thought I had picked the right permission for the files:images, but perhaps I was wrong. It was my understanding that information printed in a scientific journal was under "Public Domain". Is this wrong? And with the Public Domain free licensing, do I need to do something additional that I have not seen to do? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tiadeeharrison (talk • contribs) 16:55, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
