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).

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.

Image problems

It would really be helpful it you provided a unique url source for each image you upload. We take copyright status and sourcing very seriously. You provided a Flickr album link for some images but we require a unique url for each and every image so they can be reviewed. Providing just a Flickr user's photostream link means someone has to search through all their image pages to find the ones you uploaded. Some Flickr users, like the one whose images you uploaded yesterday, have huge albums which is 40 pages of images for this Flickr user. You, as the uploader, are responsible for providing the right details but I found the source urls and have fixed them for you but in future please be more careful so they can be found and reviewed by our bot instead of forcing human volunteers to search around. Otherwise the images may just be deleted. I suggest you use the Flickr2Commons upload tool because that transfers in all the appropriate details from Flickr. It is not perfect as Flickr users can falsely license images as free even when they are obviously not but in general it works well. You will find it at: https://tools.wmflabs.org/flickr2commons. Thanks and good luck. Ww2censor (talk) 23:33, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
