Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope. Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter. Thank you for your understanding.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Lebanese-Phoenician!

Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Support the Phoenician heritage and the land of cedars

In a modern days we have learned to identify people by their country's name and the passport they are holding. For example: you can't call an Irish person British, because both speak English, you can't call a Canadian an Australian or an American a South African, because they speak the same language, it is unaccepted in the public, media or in politics or in nature. You can't call the horse a donkey even they look similar. Why are the Lebanese-Phoenician very often labeled Arabs? Whether it is an ediction to the Arab oil cash money or doing Arabism a favor by swallowing the ancient minorities of the middle east, by using an anti-Lebanese policy in world media, politics and public. It is nothing but a modern mistake discriminating the ancient people who are the minorities in the region. The fact is that in modern days the Lebanese-Phoenicians enjoy two memberships: with the Francophone and the Arab league for political and economical reasons, not by heritage, A lebanese-Phoenician is obligated to learn all subjects in French: Arabic history, geography, Arabic and English. Lebanese-Phoenician can't be hired in the government if they dont speak french well and English is recommended, even documents in English or French are accepted. Despite the fact that the Lebanese-Phoenicians enjoy many sects, cultures and languages, for example: the Aramaic language is the Litrugical language for Christians, Armenians, and other minor languages. You can hear them very often in the streets. The point here is: how can we fix an internationl error in politics and media enabling the public to have correct views and information? The DNA research by national geographic has played a strong role in the fight for the original heritage of the Lebanese-Phoenician people of the east cost of the Mediterranean, from the land of the cedars. The statistic population in the world shows that 23% speak English, 12% speak French, 6% speak Spanish, 45% speak Portuguese, 12% speak Arabic, and 2% speak other languages. Almost 15 million Lebanese-Phoenicians live world wide. The result is that Lebanese-Phoenicians are also qualified for commonwealth membership based on their english language statistics and are qualified for the European union membership based on the ancient Phoenician legend of princess europa. They accomplished much for society for example: in medicine, in music, in politics, in culture, in art, and in science. Lebanese-Phoenicians have proven no other identity but choose to carry on what their Phoenician ancestor did. Support the Phoenician heritage and identity from the land of cedars.
