Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.BotMultichillT 05:38, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Nienacki_-_hrob.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted.

This is clearly a movie screenshot. The license "cc-by-sa-3.0" is invalid. The holder of copyrights dont want his property used by everyone for every purpose including commercial use.
Amonet, in case you did not read Commons:First steps - I fear you did not - or the FAQ: Commons is for free files only. Free means, that it is the holder of copyrights wish that everyone uses his work. Do not copy images from other websites under wrong license claims. --Martin H. (talk) 16:36, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hi Amonet. First to your question with the statue: The creator of the statue must died 70 years ago AND the photographer. Both, making a statue and making a photograph is a creative work and protected by copyright. To your question according to creative commons license: You must select the same license the author selected. Example:
- The photographer of File:Statue of Bes, an Egyptian Saite official in the Gulbenkian Museum.jpg is someone with the pseudonym shadowgate. The statue is ancient and very old. Shadowgate made the photo, he has copyright on the photo. He decided to publish the photo under the Creative Commons attribution 2.0 (cc-by-2.0) on Flickr, here. The license on Flickr is cc-by-2.0 (right side of the page, "some rights reserved"), thats your permission to copy the image to Wikimedia Commons because the holder of copyrights, Shadowgate, allows to reuse this under a free license. The image fulfills Commons:Project scope#Must be freely licensed or public domain. Only a very small number of photographs from other websites fulfill this, a free license must be mentioned on that website. --Martin H. (talk) 20:11, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
- Not ok. The image http://www.flickr.com/photos/n_corboy/477001801/ is not licensed cc-by-3.0 but cc-by-NC-ND-2.0, the license is written on the right side with a link on the deed (short information) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.0/deed.en. The NC means non-commercial, the ND means non-derivative. So our required license terms are not fulfilled. For images from the source Flickr see also Commons:Flickr and use the upload option "Its from Flickr" in Special:Upload. There are only 2 free licenses on Flickr: cc-by-2.0 and cc-by-sa-2.0. --Martin H. (talk) 08:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violations
[edit]
Hello Amonet.
You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful. This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions. |

Czech and Slovak translations needed
[edit]Hi! I contact you as you speak English, Czech and Slovak.
Jastrow and I are working on autotranslating {{Meta information museum}}, the meta-template we use for many museums, like {{Information Louvre}}. Could you please help us find Czech and Slovak translations for every tag name:
* artist/maker * description * dimensions * credit line * accession number * location * source/photographer * references * other versions
"Credit line" is mainly about the mode of acquisition: what collection does it come from? Did it join the collections by gift, purchase, on loan, etc.?
Thanks for any help. Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 16:16, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hello :-), Czech and Slovak translations are:
* artist/maker - Umelec / Tvorca or also Autor (Slovak) - Umělec / Tvůrce or also Autor (Czech) * description - Popis (Slovak + Czech) * dimensions - Rozmery (Slovak) - Rozměry (Czech) * credit line * accession number - Inventárne číslo (Slovak) - Inventářní číslo (Czech) * location - Umiestnenie (Slovak) - Umístění (Czech) * source/photographer - Zdroj / Fotograf (Slovak + Czech) * references - Referencie (Slovak) - Reference (Czech) * other versions - Iné verzie or also Ďalšie verzie (Slovak) - Jiný verze or also Další verze (Czech)
I am not sure what is correct translation phrase credit line. If I correct understand your sentence, credit line means how collection was acquisitioning, it is ok?. If yes, slovak translation can be: Spôsob získania (darovanie, kúpa, požičanie, atď). Strict translation of this my sentence is: Process (or method) of acquisition (by gift, purchase, on loan, etc). Czech translation can be: Způsob získání (darování, koupa, půjčka, atd).
If you need other translation, you can ask me also in future. Very good dictionary (English - Czech, Czech - English) is this. Slovak and Czech language are very similar, therefore it is not big mistake, when you use czech translation in slovak translation. On the other hand, dictionary of Google (this) is absolutly bad! My hint is: you don´t use google translate for these two language. Nice evening and night :-), --Amonet (talk) 18:57, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for your kind answer. You correctly understand “credit line” (for example, I use Mode d'acquisition in French, and your propositions seems to be very close). I just create the appropriate subtemplates (Czech and Slovak), so now the museum templates should appear in Czech/Slovak for Czech/Slovak-speaking people.
- I know where to find good translations in the future ;) Bibi Saint-Pol (sprechen) 09:00, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
