Hello, Weglinde!
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.

Suggestions for "Missing Categories"

I don’t know what user Multichill will answer on your question on his user talk page, but it may be of some help if I give you my ideas. let’s take your image File:Derby_War_Memorial_Collage.jpg as example. The description gives “A collage of Derby's War Memorial”. The point is to jump into the mind of a user that is looking for an image as yours that he/she wants to use in an article or webpage. He can follow the several approaches to find the image. He can look for a collage and he can look for a specific war monument. For the collage he will do a search with the word “collage”. That will give a gallery “Collages” and from there to the category Collage. There he will find exactly the type of image he is looking for, but not the one he wants. So this is a category you can add to your photo.
To find the war monument it is not clear from your description where the photo was made. I found out that it was in Derby in England. I suggest to add that to the description of your photo to make retrieving easier. The user can start with searching for “War memorials” and find the category “War memorials”. From there “War memorials by country” to “War memorials in the United Kingdom”. First he will look at the images on that page because often images are not put in a more specific category. Then he will go to “War memorials in England”. Looking there at the images and then go to the category “War memorials in Derbyshire”. The image of the war memorial he is looking for is not there. If your add this category to your photo he will find it and be happy. Another approach is to look for the city Derby. A search will lead to the category Derby There he will not find an image he is looking for and the many subcategories do not give optimism to find it there. But you can link your photo to this category. An other procedure the user can do is to look in the Engish Wikipedia because the subject he is looking for is in England. Sometimes there are photos that are not yet copied to Wikimedia Commons. The result may be that he will look at the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derby. There is no photo of the monument, but there is a link to Commons. If you have made a link in Commons to the category Derby he will find it. Further searching on Wikipedia will lead to the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derby_War_Memorial and there is exactly what he was looking for. In summary I suggest to add the following categories to your photo:
Collage
War memorials in Derbyshire
Derby
in addition to the category “Sculptors in the United Kingdom” you already added. I hope that this long story helps. Best regards, Wouter (talk) 10:45, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

I just saw that the category “Sculptors in the United Kingdom” does not exist (it is in red at the bottom when you have the page of your image). Instead you can add the category "Arthur George Walker" as this sculptor has an own category page. Further I would ask you - if you have it - to upload a photo of the full monument. I could not find any photo of it in Commons. Wouter (talk) 12:18, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Image of sculptures by Dennis Huntley

Hi Weglinde,
the permission "Given to the author by Dennis Huntley in the knowledge that it will appear on Wiki" might not be enough to upload it to Commons. What do you or did the sculptor mean by "Wiki"? Probably Wikipedia; well, here is Commons and on Commons all uploaded media have to be free also for commercial use and for modification. If the artist is not clearly aware of that, the permission is void. Therefore, I strongly recommend you to ask him for a written permission, eventually using the template text (boxed) in Commons:Email templates. --Túrelio (talk) 11:33, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi, thank you very much for your contributions. Please note that on Commons, we prefer the highest possible image quality and we have no storage capacity problem. Keep up the good work. --Foroa (talk) 11:33, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

"The Acrobat" by Alan Durst is in Tate Britain albeit in the basement until such time as it is considered appropriate to put on public display. How can I change licensing so that I can use this in my Durst Wikipedia article? Thanks. Weglinde (talk) 18:04, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

The question is whether the terms of UK FOP are met or not. If not, we cannot host it. --Túrelio (talk) 18:48, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

I guess the work is "permanently installed at a public place" in the sense that it is in Tate Britain even if not on display at the moment. The Tate only show about 10% of what works they hold. Hope on reflection you will conclude that it would meet terms of UK FOP

Weglinde (talk) 19:17, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Wonder whether any conclusion reached on this image as I would like it to stay on Wikimedia Commons. I feel that the required FOP conditions are met although the piece is not "permanently on display". It lies in storage, along with the bulk of Tate Britain's works and is brought out when it is decided that it is suitable for display.

If you agree please advise how I can remove threat of deletion.

Weglinde (talk) 22:18, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

This image has two problems. The photography of the sculpture is credited to a copyrighted website and the sculpture is still copyrighted by Durst and obviously does not meet UK FOP terms. Therefore, no chance that it stays on Commons. As your article is on :en, you can try to upload it locally to :en, claiming fair-use. --Túrelio (talk) 07:27, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

By the way, I can't find File:The Acrobat by Durst.jpg exactly at http://www.arcadja.com/auctions/en/durst_alan_lydiat/artist/336978/. It's the same sculpture, name "Marriage", not "Acrobat", but the photo is slightly different. How comes? --Túrelio (talk) 07:33, 7 February 2011 (UTC) Understand that it cannot stay on Commons. Not sure what you mean by ":en". Would be grateful if you could explain. As for "Marriage" and "Acrobat" I have found that sometimes works of sculpture go under different names.

Weglinde (talk) 15:13, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh dear! I fear that I am going to ask you to "spoon feed" me again but I am learning! Would you take me through the steps to use the "Acrobats" image in my wikipedia article claiming "fair-use". Many thanks. I only want to use the image in my article and nowhere else.

Weglinde (talk) 18:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

:en is short for english wikipedia, :de for the german-language version, etc. --Túrelio (talk) 15:26, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

As I had to delete "the Acrobat", here is its description in case you want to use it for the upload on :en. --Túrelio (talk) 15:47, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Re:Fair-use

In short as I'm busy in RL. As an example what you need to get through with a fair-use rationale for "your" image, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sderotchilddrawing.jpg. To upload it you have to go to :en, log-in, click on "upload file" in the left tool-menue and then select "It is a historically significant fair use image". Thereafter you are guided through the process. However, before starting the upload you should have your rationale ready (see my example) why you think it is justified to upload this still copyrighted image. Good luck. --Túrelio (talk) 19:23, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

I'll certainly have a go! Thanks again for your help.

Using images from Flicker

Hello Weglinde, many thanks for your interest. I see that the link of the Flickr image you provided on my talk page is All Rights Reserved which Commons does not allow. If the author allow you to use that image freely, s/he could release that on Flick under any version of CC-BY or CC-BY-SA license. Then you can just upload that Flickr image on Commons with this form. Which is the easy form in my view. Alternatively the author can e-mail the statement of permission to OTRS. For your information, free means, not only to use Wikipedia, because after releasing that image under a free license, that image could be use anywhere freely, with author's credit of course. If you need anything more, or have any question, please let me know. wikitanvir (talk) 14:44, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Surprised at your comment as I asked the originator to give me permission to use his photograph and he said that was fine and that he would alter the "licensing" perameters.

Weglinde (talk) 15:14, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

When I checked today twice, it was still nc. And the same was true a second ago: http://www.flickr.com/photos/26872131@N07/3143008909/. --Túrelio (talk) 15:17, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Is "some rights reserved" sufficient?

What would that mean? We prefer clearly specified licenses. From those available at Flickr CC-BY and CC-BY-SA are fine for Commons, CC-NC is not. --Túrelio (talk) 15:30, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Oh dear! The original uploader was happy that I use his image but rather grumpy when I asked him change "licensing". I saw that the licence details had changed but from what you say he did not go far enough. I see this image now slipping away! A pity as I would have liked to have used the image in the article I am writing for Wikipedia on Colton the sculptor. Just for future reference when I approach an originator of an image and ask them for permission to use their image when they say yes I have told them to put the image in the "Organise and create" mode and then click "licensing". Which of the options then given should they tick. For my own images I always click "Attribution.nonCommercial'ShareAlike. Creative Commons". Is this okay or can they opt for ticking one of the other options?

Would appreciate your help as I want to do the right thing to avoid taking up the time of chaps such as you Weglinde (talk) 15:58, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

As your above code string contains "nonCommercial", this would not be compatible for uploading to Commons. We require uploads to be free for any kind of use (in regard to copyright; other restriction may still apply, such as personality rights), including commercial use. The same is true for the no-derivatives restriction, also not compatible with Commons. --Túrelio (talk) 16:03, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Seems I have been pressing the wrong button!!! In the choices given on Flicker are:- 

Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs Creative Commons
Attribution Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons
Attribution-NoDerivs Creative Commons

Which button should be pressed in order to then allow me to download onto Wiki Commons.

Sorry if I seem to be asking you to "spoon-feed" me but in truth I am!!!!!

Now understand FOP. If "Crown of Love" turns out to be in a public gallery then will I be okay. Also if an image is in respect of a work which is in a church will this make a difference.

Weglinde (talk) 16:43, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Only the following 2 options are o.k. for Commons. --Túrelio (talk) 16:46, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
  • Attribution Creative Commons (=CC-BY)
  • Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons (=CC-BY-SA)


Incidentally what is FOP?

Ooops, common abbreviation for Freedom of panorama, which allows reproduction of still copyrighted works of art, provided they are permanently installed at a public place. Terms vary considerably from country to country; luckily, UK's FOP provision is very broad. --Túrelio (talk) 16:03, 30 January 2011 (UTC)


Hi Weglinde,
where is the original shown in File:Cambridge Image-Durst.jpg located (contry, in/outside)? --Túrelio (talk) 10:23, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Weglinde (talk) 19:26, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Great. I've undeleted the file and re-tagged it for the Flickr-review bot for confirmation. Thereafter, that is, when a green-shaded window appears on the image site, you can tell the Flickr user to change the license back to what him pleases. If you communicate again with him, you might eventually ask him, whether he shot this image from the real sculpture or from a book (I fear the latter). --Túrelio (talk) 20:14, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
Done. But, think of my above question. --Túrelio (talk) 20:31, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Super and thanks! I am going through some Durst papers at Tate Britain later this week and will find out if possible where "The crown of love" is. Will let you know if successful. Weglinde (talk) 13:54, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Another question. I am keen to get to that bottom of the whys and wherefores of uploading images to WikiCommons. I recently approached the chaplain of a school in Bath whether they still held the processional cross which had been carved by Alan Durst. The chaplain has confirmed this to be the case and has kindly sent me a photograph. I would like to add this to the article on Durst that I am writing on Wikipedia. How should I download this image? Do I say it is my own? If not which of the various options given should I choose. Look forward to hearing from you. You are now paying the penalty for being so helpful but I hope not to keep bothering you. In a nutshell I am writing several articles on English sculptors. If I take photographs myself that is fine and if I take something from Flickr then I now know what to do (thanks to you) but there will be other instances where people send me photographs they have taken but that are not on Flikr. It is these that I wish to handle correctly without infringing any rules.

Weglinde (talk) 14:28, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Don't be disappointed, but I fear the photo of the cross violates the copyright of Mr. Durst, see Category:Alan Durst. The "problem" is that he died only in 1970, thereby his works are copyrighted (by his heirs) until end of 2040! Except in cases that meet the FOP-terms of UK copyright law, you need a written permission by Durst's heir(s) to publish any kind of reproduction (includ. photographies) of his works. If this "processional cross" is not on permanent display at a public place, thereby fulfilling FOP-terms, you cannot upload it under a free license. --Túrelio (talk) 14:57, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Oh dear! I thought that might be the case. The cross is in the chapel of a school and is on permanent display. Guess a school chapel is not a public place. Please confirm. Anyway I am taking it that if the work involved is in a public art gallery or say on the outside of a cathedral then I am okay. However a good deal of Durst's work can be found inside a church. Please confirm that a church is a public place in the context of FOP-terms of UK copyright law?

Weglinde (talk) 15:53, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Well, I am not a lawyer and even not in UK jurisdiction ;-). Take a thorough look at COM:FOP#United_Kingdom and eventually at the links in that section. Another possibility would be to upload and then file a regular deletion request, not to get the file deleted, but to attract people with more expertise in this area. --Túrelio (talk) 16:11, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks as always for speedy reply. The operative words seem to be "if permanently situated in a public place or in premises open to the public". Certainly a church or cathedral would qualify as "premises open to the public" but the chapel in a school may not. I shall load the picture of the work held in the school chapel and file a deletion request and see what happens. I feel more relaxed now as the works I am likely to want to use will either be in an art gallery or within or outside a cathedral.

Weglinde (talk) 11:03, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Just one more point. Note the following has been put on the page of Durst uploads.

These works or works by this artist may not be in the public domain, because the artist has not been dead for at least 70 years. Please do not upload photographs or scans of works by this artist, unless they meet one of the following exceptions: The work was first published in the United States and one of the United States public domain tags applies; The work is permitted by a legal exception such as freedom of panorama or de minimis; The work was released by the author or their heirs via E-mail confirmed authorisation; The work is known to be in the public domain for some other clear reason. For more information, see Commons:Licensing and Commons:Derivative

This is dated 30th January.

As we have discussed all the images are of works by Durst in a "public place" so meet the"freedom of panorama" criteria. I will NOT upload any further images of Durst's works unless I am happy with the FOP. For this reason I fully understand that the Altar Cross image will be removed as it is kept in a school.

Will the above note be deleted/do I need to worry about it?

Seem to have generated a lot of work for you but in the process I have learnt a good deal about licensing and FOP's so hopefully will not be bothering you again.

Weglinde (talk) 12:38, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

The above mentioned NoUploads-template was actually added by me. It is a standard procedure for categories of artists who's works are not yet in the public domain. What it says is exactly that what we have discussed already on this page. So, it is mainly directed at users unaware of the problem. --Túrelio (talk) 13:15, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

All now clear and understood. Thanks again

I now want to use the image in an article I am writing for Wilipedia on Alan Durst so I firstly put the image on WikiCommons and then have to choose the right category to enable be upload the image and insert it in my article.

Photograph of statue of Nelson in Southsea.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nelson_at_Portsmouth.jpg

I used this image in a wiki article on Frederick Brook Hitch. This use has been challenged as the licence did not allow use on Wikicommons.

The original uploader, Cross Duck has been asked to ease the licence restrictions and has done so.

Would whoever can do this remove the existing restraint and allow the image to stay.

Many thanks

I do not have permission to use this or any of the other Karl Parsons images mostly taken from an 1988 Exhibition catalogue. I thought that the 1988 copyright might be time expired. If this is not the case then I fully understand if the images are withdrawn. I want to use the images in a wikipedia article on Karl Parsons.

I would have thought the invitation to a preview of the exhibition did not come into a copyright area so hope this image will at least escape the axe
