Image deletion warning | Image:Polkinghorne.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this image, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. If the file is up for deletion because it has been superseded by a superior derivative of your work, consider the notion that although the file may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new file. |
Image Tagging Image:Seniorwarden1.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading Image:Seniorwarden1.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-3.0}} 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.

An update from Wiki Loves Monuments UK
editThank you for taking part in Wiki Loves Monuments UK | |
More than 300 people have contributed a total of 4,000 photos to this year's competition and we wanted to say thank you for helping us get this far. The competition runs until the end of September, and you can upload as many images as you want - so feel free to document some more sites. Or why not go through your old images to see if you have any others that could be submitted?
Since you've already submitted some pictures to the competition, you might be interested in the banner mini-contest; to take part you crop your images to a 7:1 and upload a new version. You can find out more about how to do that here. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the competition and share it with others! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 12:24, 22 September 2017 (UTC)} |

File:Catherine Conybeare 2019.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 may soon be deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please replace the copyvio tag with {{subst:OP}} and have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you disagree that the file is a copyright violation for any other reason, please replace the copyvio tag with a regular deletion request.

September 2019: it's Wiki Loves Monuments time again!
editHi
You're receiving this message because you've previously contributed to the annual Wiki Loves Monuments contest in the UK. We'd be delighted if you would do so again this year and help record our local built environment for future generations.
You can find more details at the Wiki Loves Monuments UK website. Or, if you have images taken in other countries, you can check the international options. This year's contest runs until 30 September 2019.
Many thanks for your help once more! MichaelMaggs (talk) 15:35, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
Licenses and Public Domain templates
editHello! Thanks for your many uploads to Commons. Please strive to use correct licenses or Public Domain templates, and avoid taking credit (or claiming copyright) for works that you did not create. For example, the 18th-century publication File:Charles Viner Aldershot.jpg is firmly in the public domain, and should have the template {{PD-old-100-expired}}. Similarly, the cover of File:Zigger Zagger programme 1967.jpg is in the public domain (even in the event you happen to be Mr. Terson) for being simple text with no copyrightable content: thus {{PD-text}} is the correct template. And lastly, File:Madge Lessing Princess Beauty 1901.jpg and File:Madge Lessing 1905.jpg are very likely in the Public Domain, but the template {{Cc-zero}} is probably incorrect, because that requires the original photographer/copyright holder (now deceased) explicitly released the image under a Creative Commons license. A more appropriate PD-template is {{PD-old-100}} or {{PD-old-70}}, depending on the death date of the photographer. Note: making a simple scan or photograph of a public domain work does not grant the uploader new copyright or ownership: see {{PD-scan}}. It's important to be accurate with author, date, source, and license, because third-party websites often automatically use images with attribution data drawn from the description fields. Cheers, --Animalparty (talk) 19:57, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
- Once again, please stop falsely claiming copyright of public domain images, as you did at File:Kitty Loftus The Sketch 1893.jpg. Only use {{Own work}} for works you originally photographed yourself, not that you scanned or copied off the internet ({{Scan}} or {{Own scan}} can be used if the original publication is also noted). If you can't ascertain the original photographer or artist, use {{Unknown photographer}} or {{Unknown}}, but depending on the country of origin, death date of author may be needed to establish public domain status. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. --Animalparty (talk) 20:04, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
Deletion request on File:Dobiecribb.jpg
editHello. I have nominated File:Dobiecribb.jpg, which you uploaded, for deletion at Commons:Deletion requests/File:Dobiecribb.jpg, where I invite you to discuss the image. George Ho (talk) 00:12, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
Postcards
editHello Jack1956, thanks for uploading postcards on commons. Maybe you are interested in COM:WPPC. Best regards. -- sk (talk) 04:26, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
Assigning categories
editHello, and welcome to Wikimedia Commons! Thank you for you contributions. When you add categories generally just use the most specific category. For example if you categorize an image of a yellow circle, it should generally only be in Category:Yellow circles and not also Category:Yellow shapes or Category:Circles, thank you.
