Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Mwlowe 4!

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.

File copyright status

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons. While everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the project, one or more of your file uploads had missing or false information regarding its source and copyright status. Please note that Wikimedia Commons takes copyright rules and infringement very seriously. Files may only be uploaded and included if their copyright status meets the conditions stated in our licensing policy, and if their provenance is clearly documented. Files that fail to meet those conditions may be deleted, and users who fail to meet them may be blocked. Please follow our first steps, if you haven't already. If you have questions, feel free to ask at the Village Pump copyright question page or on my talk page. Thank you. Эlcobbola _talk 15:09, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Copyright violations

---

Hello Mwlowe 4. You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful. This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions.

Your account has been blocked

You have been blocked from editing Commons. The reason for the block is available in the block log as is the name of the administrator who blocked you. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may add {{Unblock}} below this message explaining clearly why you should be unblocked. For more information, see Appealing a block.

Unblock request declined This blocked user asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators has reviewed and declined this request. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without discussion. Request reason: "I am getting blocked from scum like Elcobbola who thinks that it is okay to remove images and block people from this platform providing valuable images while also providing the information about the original image and the copyright license. This is turning into some sort of feud in which the user Elcobbola started today. I have not caused any trouble on this website before and no trouble occurred until this incompetent fool wanted to be a pain and remove two images that I posted for two articles providing context. I will not be stopped on this platform and you will expect more from me later on. Mwlowe 4 (talk) 01:05, 10 November 2021 (UTC)" Decline reason: "At first, you blatantly lied when giving licenses. For cover you claimed, that it is published under CC-BY license. Actually it was published under "Copyright © 1999-2021 Blue Flame Labs. All rights reserved." For Google Street View screenshot you gave source and license "own work", actually it was work of Google. You would create a big mess, when allowed to continue. All your uploads were rightfully deleted and the block was correct. Normally I would simply decline your request, it would expire after week and then you could contribute again. But you were impolite towards one of our most respectful administrators and I block you indefinitely. Indefinite block is not infinite block. You can request unblock again, if you have learned Commons copyright policies (you can start here) AND if you have learned respect towards other people. Both are needed in Commons and other Wikimedia projects as well. Taivo (talk) 11:23, 10 November 2021 (UTC)" Administrators: This template should be removed when the block has expired.

You have been blocked from editing Commons indefinitely. The reason for the block is intimidation/harassment, also uploading unfree files after warnings (block log). If you believe this block is unjustified, you may add {{Unblock}} below this message explaining clearly why you should be unblocked. For more information, see Appealing a block.
