User talk:Erik Moeller (WMF)

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Erik Moeller (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.

Your deletion of File:Jack Andraka-Cancer Researcher.webm

Please do not delete files from Wikimedia Commons unless the deletion is done on behalf of the Foundation as part of an office action. File:Jack Andraka-Cancer Researcher.webm does not seem to be covered by any Foundation policy that I am aware of, and should therefore have been left to be processed by one of the local, community-elected administrators. Thank you. odder (talk) 18:54, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

@Odder: Fair enough, sorry about that. It was an outdated version of the file we didn't want to accidentally spread, but overwriting the file would probably have been fine in this instance, too.--Erik Moeller (WMF) (talk) 01:57, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
