Tip: Categorizing images
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.CategorizationBot (talk) 17:01, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Help me to upload the files obtained from web freely

Jenith Michael Raj talk 06:08, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, Jenith, You cannot grab any image from the web and upload. Instead, you have to look for licenses, commons accepts. Have a look at COM:L to get an impression. E.g. Flickr is a good source. Read COM:Flickr. -- RE rillke questions? 15:09, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the good clarification--Jenith Michael Raj (talk) 12:59, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- Be careful with Flickr uploads too. Although the two files you uploaded from Flickr (Commons:Deletion requests/File:Rajni-Aamir.jpg) had compatible licenses, the person who had uploaded the files did not own the copyright for the images and therefore those images while they passed initial review, were subsequently deleted. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 13:40, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
Help me

Please help me whether Wikipedia supports images uploaded from Cinefundas.com for Creative Commons license, since I saw some images, example File:Amala-paul13.jpg uploaded from this site, are approved in Wikipedia OTRS. Also where we can see the Bollywood Hungama creative commons permission--Jenith Michael Raj (talk) 05:51, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- The OTRS Ticket#: 2011020710001425 says that all files from Cinefundas.com are under CC BY 3.0 license. For files from Bollywood Hungama, please use {{Cc-by-3.0-BollywoodHungama}} as the license and you should be OK. --Sreejith K (talk) 19:15, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Gautham Menon and Surya on the sets in Sri Lanka.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Gautham Menon and Surya on the sets in Sri Lanka.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Critically evaluate Flickr licenses
|
File:Elizabeth-taylor-bathing suit.jpg has been marked as a copyright violation. You may have preserved the information shown on Flickr correctly when transferring the image here, but the Flickr uploader is not the copyright holder of this image. Either the image was created by someone else, or it is a derivative of someone else's work. As stated in Commons:Licensing, only the copyright holder may issue a license, so the one shown on Flickr is invalid.
Always remember to critically evaluate Flickr licenses. Photostreams with professional-looking photographs, album covers, posters, and images in a wide range of styles or quality taken by many different cameras often indicate that the Flickr uploader either does not understand or does not care about copyright matters. See Commons:Questionable Flickr images for a list of known bad Flickr users.

- Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
- State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
- Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.
If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.
It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.
You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.
Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.

Some cropping action
Thanks for that, Yjenith. Excellent work and much appreciated. --Tagishsimon (talk) 19:37, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't know how many of my photo workshop requests you've done so far, but you're clearly tireless and very much deserve one of these. Probably several of these, but you'll have to do with a single one for now. You've improved very many pages across all sorts of languages with your work. Very many thanks.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Vidya Balan at Indian Film Festival 2011, Melbourne, 11th March 2011.jpg
This media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Vidya Balan at Indian Film Festival 2011, Melbourne, 11th March 2011.jpg, 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:Vidya Balan at Indian Film Festival 2011, Melbourne, 11th March 2011.jpg]] ).
If you created the content yourself, enter 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! |

Kind of wonder whether you're requesting the upload of semi-random Flickr images only because they have the word "girl" in description or tagging... AnonMoos (talk) 03:47, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, I am looking for the models set and some other pictures from Flickr I like to contribute to commons. May be the degree of uploading high in 'Girl' tags. Is anything wrong?--Yjenith (talk) 03:55, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
- You're not necessarily violating any Commons policies, but if you upload a lot of semi-random snapshots, and photographs which look a lot like other photographs, without considering relevance for the intended purposes of Commons, then you could end up annoying people...

The website from which you copied some of the photos has a clear definition of copyright. Please do not upload files for which you have no proof of copyright ownership or permission to use a file under a free license. See Commons:Licensing. Wpedzich (talk) 10:25, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
