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. 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. |

Photos by others
[edit]Dear Alexandra, thank you for uploading new photos of yourself! Please note that Wikimedia Commons is a free knowledge project, see Commons:Licensing. Unfortunately, the laws of most states do not recognise a right for you to license under cc-by-sa photos by authors other than yourself, unless they explicitly transferred such a right to you. It's probably easiest to only upload photos that you shot yourself. Otherwise, please see Commons:OTRS. Nemo 17:50, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
