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).

Project scope
[edit]Hi Garytmarsh, please respect that Commons has a project scope and that contributed images must be realistically useful for an educational purpose. Note that an image of an unidentified animal at an unidentified location like File:Chipmunk on a rock.jpg is not anyhow educational and does not meet the requirements of Commons. Therefore please give useful descriptions and useful categories to your images so that they actually can be used for educational purposes! -- Ies (talk) 17:13, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
