Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, WisDom-UK!

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.

Copyright status: File:South Armagh.jpg

Copyright status: File:South Armagh.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:South Armagh.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution.

Categories on International Boundary Study Images

First of all, good work on uploading a bunch of the boundary study images. However, for many of your files, they aren't being placed in correct or existing categories. For example, File:Guinea - Guinea-Bissau border.png, I've removed the non-existent category Guinea - Guinea-Bissau border and replaced it with International borders of Guinea and international borders of Guinea Bissau. Would you mind going through your uploaded files and put them in the correct category so others don't end up uploading duplicates in the future and so they can be readily used in the future for all of your files?

ː Thanks. Surely the best category would 'X-Y border', and where these categories don't exist to create them? Look on any of the 'popular' borders and this is how they are categorised. WisDom-UK

Yeah, you could do that as well if you were to create those categories, but also I would make sure that a category of x-y border is categorized as well into Category:International borders of x and Category:International borders of y. Zoozaz1 (talk) 00:41, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

I agree, great job with these maps! --Geographyinitiative (talk) 22:18, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
