Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, DSaroyan (WMF)!

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.

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Rapid Fund Application Guide 02.png

This file may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Rapid Fund Application Guide 02.png, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, 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. 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!

GSF changes 2023/24 and timeline

Hello, to support translation, would you mind uploading the svg format for General_Support_Fund process please? Commons has a handy translation aid for SVG files: AFAIK, png format excludes those who are not using inkspace or other image editing apps. Cheers, Omotecho (talk) 19:38, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Omotecho: unfortunately, it is currently not available. In the future, I'll make sure to request the images in .svg format too, so that we are able to translate them into other languages. Thanks and sorry, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 12:46, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you, @DSaroyan (WMF) for your thoughtful reply. That will be nice as a visual item is very handy to tell people what is the core idea. Arigatow (: Omotecho (talk) 20:51, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
