File:Н.М.Аввакумов._Плакат._1940.JPG[edit]

Плакат, который вы собираетесь удалить создал мой родной дед - Николай Михайлович Аввакумов. Я являюсь его родным внуком. Я являюсь правобладателем этого произведения. Оригинал произведения находится у меня дома. Я лично его сфотографировал. Вот мой личный сайт: http://n-avvakumov.ru Прошу не удалять этот файл. С уважением, Николай Михайлович Аввакумов.--Hitrovka (talk) 02:32, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Saint Petersburg Metro map[edit]

Could you have consulted me prior to raising and IFD. Considering that I have made additions to the map, that make it severely different from the original scanned version, including several corrections. Please cancel the AFD if you have any respect for other people's work. --Kuban kazak 22:58, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nicely done image! One suggestion though: I think the usage of the Chinese Taipei football flag would be more suitable than the Republic of China (Taiwan) flag in the image. Chinese Taipei football flag is politically neutral and the Chinese Taipei football team compete under the flag. --Joshua Chiew (talk) 16:14, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on Commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:

  • Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
  • State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
  • If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
  • Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
  • Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.

If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.

It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.

You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.

Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.

Thank you.

Hello,

Reopening a DR just after it was closed, and when there was no comment since March 20, and insisting for a deletion for a image from 1888: I think you really have time to loose in useless arguments against only one image.

Hello, Syrcro!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

Danke für den Löschantrag hier [4] - für meine Begriffe sind die Dateien dieser Nutzerin alle private Selbstdarstellung aus irgendeinem Architekturseminar etc. etc. Entweder ein Missverständnis über die Commons oder Überbleibsel eines nicht realisierten Projektes.

by-nc-nd[edit]

Hallo Syrcro, ich bin bisher immer davon ausgegangen, dass diese Art der Lizenz in den Commons und in den einzelnen Projekten nicht zulässig bzw. unerwünscht ist. Es gibt sie aber haufenweise [5]. Wie ist mit solchen Dateien zu verfahren? Löschantrag stellen? Aus den entsprechenden Artikeln entfernen? Gruß --Kuebi (talk) 14:07, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

NC wie ND Lizenzen sind alleine verboten, wenn die Datei aber schon unter einer hinreichend freien Lizenz steht, ist als zusätzlicher Zweitlizenz auch NC bzw. ND erlaubt. Wenn eine solche fehlt, sollte man den Hochlader mal darauf ansprechen, kann einfach ein Versehen sein. Im Zweifeĺ sind Dateien ohne freie Lizenz neben den weniger-freien NC bzw. NDen zu löschen. (Bei meinen Stichproben war immer zumindest eine Commonstaugliche Freie Lizenz neben der by-nc-nd, auch wenn das viel zu oft die Verarschungs-GFDL-1.2only war.) sугсго 17:46, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open[edit]

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:

  1. Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
  2. This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
  3. Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons

Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee
