Image Tagging Image:Aeonium_leucobleferum_PICT0921.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Aeonium_leucobleferum_PICT0921.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Hi, I came across the empty Greenovia dodrentalis - for your information: if a page has the wrong name, you can move it by using the "MOVE"-tab at the top of the page. If you want to delete the wrongly-named page, please use {{speedydelete|reason}} template. Removing all the content from the page just leaves it sitting there with nothing to do :). I have fixed it up for Greenovia as per your edit comments. Kind regards, Deadstar 08:42, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
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.BotMultichillT 06:10, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

I use some of your photos[edit]
Hi Opuntia!
I have use some photos of Aeshna mixta from wikimedia in my free software educational proyect "Animalandia" (http://herramientas.educa.madrid.org/animalandia)
You can see directly in the follow link and click over "Siguiente" ("Next") several times:
http://herramientas.educa.madrid.org/animalandia/imagen.php?id=34724
If you wish, you can send me some letters or/and a photo for your "contributor profile" in Animalandia:
http://herramientas.educa.madrid.org/animalandia/autor.php?nombre=Opuntia
I want show to my students (and so everybody) that Animalandia is make for "real person", and I can tell them about "generosity", "share" and other similar words that they use very few...
This is my "contributor card", for example:
http://herramientas.educa.madrid.org/animalandia/autor.php?nombre=Fernando%20Lis%F3n%20Mart%EDn
In the future, I use more of your photos, I sure!
Thank you for the licence and, of course, for your splendid photos!! Regards! Fernando Lisón
