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.

New Hall of Justice, Haifa

Hi,
I don't think that "New Hall of Justice" is an accurate name in English for the Haifa Courts complex. It actually sounds quite unlikely... are you sure this is the name in use? <<New District Court building>> makes a far more appropriate translation if you ask me. What do you say? Orrlingtalk 22:50, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

The name you suggested will not do either, because the building houses also the Haifa Court of Justice (Beit Mishpat Hashalom) and Haifa Labour Court. YoavR (talk) 15:40, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. When I happened there physically I indeed saw that “Hall of Justice” is the name though only in Hebrew - whereas in English it is simply “Haifa Courts”, given that our parent-cat is Haifa Courts, and that “Hall of Justice” is not really in any use in English, I think it can be renamed into New Haifa Courts, (..and also think that Hall of Justice provokes confusion with the religious structure of the similar title…). With your permission, I’m moving it. Orrlingtalk 02:01, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

OK, go ahead. Thanks. YoavR (talk) 09:14, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
