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.

Copyright

Hi! I'm the content expert for your course and I was looking at a document you added, File:Timeline4incarceration.gif. You have claimed it as your own work, however a reverse image search shows people using a modified version of the image back in 2015. It somewhat looks like it was taken from a government document and if so, the image would be in the public domain depending on which government agency published the document. What you need to put in the image's page is information about where you got the image from, otherwise it runs the risk of getting deleted from Wikimedia Commons.
