Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, PowerAustin!

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.

it is not copirayt it is us gov!--PowerAustin (talk) 08:07, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Cited from the deletion-request "This isn't "a work prepared by an officer or employee of the U.S. government as part of that person's official duties", this is a personal photo that was taken despite that person's official duties, so much so that it is a part of charges being brought against that soldier. Further, this photo has been altered by the Spiegel Group (blurred, etc.) and as such contains their intellectual property. The copyright information listed is wrong, this isn't published under a free license, this particular version belongs to the "SPIEGEL Group" which states: "Unser Material ist urheberrechtlich geschützt" (our material is protected by copyright)". --Túrelio (talk) 08:13, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I have read. I have a question: when is not from Spigel thi is OK? http://www.apacheclips.com/media/30594/US_Army_039%3Bkill_team039%3B_in_Afghanistan_posed_for_photos_of_murdered_civilians/ Can you give me a simple answer yes or no. Thenks! It is no other way to post this photos? Wat do you think? OTRIS can solve this problem? Kan you help me? Thenks.--PowerAustin (talk) 08:36, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

As far as I know, No. The only person, who could give you the required permission, is the photographer himself. This photo could eventually be uploaded to :en-Wikipedia under fair-use, which somehow ignores the copyright. But Commons does not and cannot allow fair-use. We only accept free content. --Túrelio (talk) 08:41, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Thenk you. I not strong in layer.--PowerAustin (talk) 08:50, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
