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).

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.

"Volunteer Parkway"

Do you have a basis for your assertion that the name "Volunteer Parkway" is official? I can't quickly find anything online that uses the designation other than one clearly unofficial site. - Jmabel ! talk 16:38, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Here is a link in the Seattle Municipal Code to the official boundaries (search for Volunteer Parkway): http://clerk.ci.seattle.wa.us/~scripts/nph-brs.exe?d=CODE&s1=15app1.snum.&Sect5=CODE1&Sect6=HITOFF&l=20&p=1&u=/~public/code1.htm&r=1&f=G

Jmabel - thanks for creating this topic, and the excellent photography. My apologies if I have added these notes on the wrong page. Reddog81 (talk) 17:58, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

It's usually simpler to keep the conversation in one place and just use a {{Tb}} to let the other user know you've responded on your own talk page. - Jmabel ! talk 19:52, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Speaking of which, since I responded on my talk page before seeing that you'd made the remark in two places...
