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.

We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Bobby lalonde october 2011.jpg

This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Bobby lalonde october 2011.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Based on your previous history of uploading copyrighted files, I think some proof is needed for this one. Elisfkc (talk) 05:32, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

at the time i uploaded my previous files, i was unaware of wikipedia's policy regarding album covers (they are not allowed). this is why my previous uploads were deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brandonlalonde1234 (talk • contribs) 10:01, 19 December 2016 (UTC)--Brandonlalonde1234 (talk) 10:15, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Great, follow the OTRS procedure to prove it. Elisfkc (talk) 19:11, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

@Elisfkc: Can you please elaborate on what information i need to add? the source is already listed as my own work.--Brandonlalonde1234 (talk) 19:55, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Based on your previous uploads, it seemed like you were one of the many people that constantly upload unfree images of people who have articles. Many of these people will then attempt to upload these type of images as their own work. In most cases, when that work is then nominated for deletion or a source is request, they do not respond. It was unfair of me to judge you as being one of those people, and as such, I have removed the no source tag. Elisfkc (talk) 20:17, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
