Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Qwexcxewq!

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.

iNaturalist files

Hi Qwexcxewq - thanks for adding File:Indochinesecuckooshrike.jpg from iNaturalist under its creative commons license! Please remember though, iNaturalist files include location data relevant to the file; it is essential that this is included in the file documentation as it is important data. I have added it now; have a look at the file's history to see the changes I made, for tips for future uploads. I'll also rename the file to make the filename more informative. Thanks! - MPF (talk) 13:16, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

An unfree Flickr license was found on File:Lea Park Bridge.jpg

---

A file that you uploaded to Wikimedia Commons from Flickr, File:Lea Park Bridge.jpg, was found available on Flickr by an administrator or reviewer under the license Noncommercial (), No derivative works (), or All Rights Reserved (), which isn't compatible with Wikimedia Commons, per the licensing policy. The file has been deleted. Commons:Flickr files/Appeal for license change has information about sending the Flickr user an appeal asking for the license to be changed. Only Flickr images tagged as (CC BY), (CC BY-SA), (CC0) and (PDM) are allowed on Wikimedia Commons. If the Flickr user has changed the license of the Flickr image, feel free to ask an administrator to restore the file, or start an undeletion request.

Hi Adeletron 3030, I thought that Wikimedia and Wikipedia would fall under Non commercial and non derivative. I'm so sorry about this. I have sent an appeal to the Flickr user. Should I remove it from the Wikipedia page that it appears on? Qwexcxewq (talk) 20:13, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

No need to apologize - it happens quite a bit. You don’t have to remove it right now, especially if you’ve contacted the Flickr user (commenting on the image page might help too). Anyway, the reason non-derivative/non-commercial licenses aren’t allowed is because there are no restrictions on how users can do with Wikipedia content (and a non-derivative license wouldn’t allow cropping or combining with other images, etc).
