Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Hsestes00!

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.

Hello from WLM-US

Hello,

Thanks for submitting your photos to Wiki Loves Monuments. They look great, but there is one potential problem. I want to make sure you understand the CC-BY-SA license. It means that anybody can use or adapt your photos, as long as they give attribution to you. The idea is that (almost) anything you see on Wikipedia, will be free for anybody to use. I think you've complied with all the formalities, but at the bottom of the photos you've got a copyright statement. One of 2 things is likely to happen because of the copyright statement. Either editors will think that you don't understand the CC-BY-SA license, so they'll try to delete the photo, or they will likely remove the copyright statement (which is allowed by the license). In general editors only want "freely available" photos on Commons. As I said, I think you've complied with the formalities, but let me know if I can help you in any way on this.
