Image Tagging Image:Horário verão Brasil.png
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Horário verão Brasil.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 content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
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 {{self|cc-by-sa-3.0}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license 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.

Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.CategorizationBot (talk) 11:18, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

File:Sobrevoo das áreas atingidas pela chuva no Espírito Santo - 02.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.
If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues. |

File tagging File:Brasao maria da fe.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted.
|
Thanks for uploading File:Brasao maria da fe.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Brasao maria da fe.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Fotos de Locomotivas
[edit]olá Denis Rizzoli, obrigado pela foto da GE_BB40-9WM atualizei o artigo da Wiki em PT, teria mais fotos das locomtoivas das Vale? Meloaraujo (talk) 22:48, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
- De nada. Infelizmente, não sei como te ajudar, porque não entendo nada de trens. A foto que tirei foi mais para ilustrar o artigo sobre o meu município. MayTheForce (talk) 23:36, 8 February 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.

International reactions to the 2020 presidential election
[edit]Hello MayTheForce, on can you please change Mexico to a yellow nation (per: https://www.milenio.com/politica/amlo-felicita-joe-biden-ganar-eleccion-presidencial-eu) and Belarus to a red nation (per: https://eng.belta.by/president/view/lukashenko-us-election-is-a-mockery-of-democracy-134846-2020/)?

And Kazakhstan (in blue, I suppose).—Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2804:4bc:8012:7000:8541:46d1:ff2c:4041 (talk) 20:03, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hello! Done, Mexico in yellow! Kazakhstan is already in blue.
- About Belarus, the map's legend for red says "Countries that have condemned the election results". I understand that Lukashenko condemned the electoral process, not its results, as well as Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of Iran. When I created the map, the legend said "Countries that have congratulated Donald Trump as president-elect" (which is almost the same as to condemn the election results. However, only Prime Minister Janez Janša of Slovenia congratulated Trump, while President Borut Pahor congratulated Biden. I think it would be better if we change the legend for red to "Countries that have condemned the election or its results". What do you think? MayTheForce (talk) 20:31, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for changing the color for Mexico. I agree with your assessment of Belarus and Iran. It makes sense for those countries to have a color rather than be grey (countries that haven't made a statement) since they have released statements about the election. Mt.FijiBoiz (talk) 20:57, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- The "new red" would also seem to apply to Brazil. Would you agree? Mt.FijiBoiz (talk) 21:00, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- You're welcome! I just changed the legend for red to "Countries that have condemned the election or its results" and painted Iran and Belarus red. President of Brazil just congratulated Biden, so Brazil will be in yellow. MayTheForce (talk) 21:24, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- Please add Seychelles, Lesotho, Mauritius, and Nicaragua as blue nations. All the best. Mt.FijiBoiz (talk) 04:35, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
