Images licenses
[edit]Hi, thank you for uploading images to WikiCommons. However, all images on WikiCommons needs to have both a license and a source. You can read more about licenses at Commons:Licensing. You must also explain carefully your sources for the images so that others can verify the license. Images with incomplete information may have to be deleted.

[edit]Thank you for uploading images on Commons.
Please add author/source information. If you did it yourself please say this fact explicitly.
Please add your images to appropriative pages and/or categories where other users could easily find them.

- Hello, I took this picture from the english wikipedia page Manny Ramirez. I assumed it was ok to use if I take it from one wikipedia project. I went to look the source I got it from and it didn't say the author. Can I still use it? Something else, is there a way I can use a picture from one wikipedia in another one without having to download it to the wikimedia commons? Thanks. Dominican 23:32, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- It's OK to move image here if it's available under free license (in this case GFDL). You should specify project where this image uploaded (English Wikipedia), original file name (if different with new), uploader name, upload time.
- There is no other way to move images between Wikis. Only re-uploading.

Image Tagging Image:Ramirez al bate.png
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Ramirez al bate.png. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{Cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Dominican. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dominican~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
