SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)
[edit]In other languages (translate this)
|
---|
|
Thank you for uploading some images!
Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!

Copyright status: File:The 9 worlds of Norse cosmology.svg
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:The 9 worlds of Norse cosmology.svg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |

File source is not properly indicated: File:The 9 worlds of Norse cosmology.svg
[edit]This media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:The 9 worlds of Norse cosmology.svg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file (
[[:File:The 9 worlds of Norse cosmology.svg]] ).
If you created the content yourself, enter 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! |

Hi, if you upload a file, please add and fill in an infobox. Jcb (talk) 23:39, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
Image without license
[edit]
- Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
- State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikimedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best to use CommonsHelper.
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
- Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.
If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.
It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.
You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file.
Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.

Deletion nominations
[edit]Hi, as long as you don't take the time to add an infobox and categories to your uploads, nobody knows what the files are supposed to illustrate. So in the future, make sure you fill in the infobox and you add proper categorization. Regarding your watchlist, you can add the DR's to your watchlist by pressing the 'watch' tab.

Too many details
[edit]I think you have added too many details to File:Table of Nations.png and File:Table of Nations2.png. Those maps from what I understand are made to depict the way peoples are represented in the Tanakh/Old Testament, and you have added much more, which is a bad thing as those images have lost their focus. Veverve (talk) 12:26, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- Almost everything there ties in one way or another. What in particular are you having difficulty with? Just granpa (talk) 12:50, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- I highly doubt (first image) Cro-Magnon, Scandinavia, Caledonia, Japanese, Berbers, Minoeans, Austroasiatic languages, Tibeno-Burman languages, Sinitic languages, (second image) the Afar triple junction, the Ethiopian Mount Olympus, and other things on those images are mentioned in the bible. Veverve (talk) 13:03, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- You are wrong but I can see that its useless to try to talk to you about it. Just granpa (talk) 13:09, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- There is no need to be rude, please. Could you now write in the desccription of the image what your sources are for all those information? Veverve (talk) 22:39, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- If your map is not reliable, it cannot be considered as educational. Veverve (talk) 19:33, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

WARNING! - Problem with your images
[edit]Hello. I have nominated five more images from you today. It seems you have a very heavy tendency to upload images whose names make them look educational, but once zoomed in are in fact strange and uneducational. Please have a look at my previous deletion nominations to see why they are no educational. I would like to point you to the COM:NOTHOST policy. You must stop this behaviour. I will nominate the others images you uploaded which follow the same pattern. Veverve (talk) 17:07, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
