maps
[edit]Hey, when you upload SVG maps make sure to crop them so there isn't much blank space left. It distorts how it's viewed otherwise. Thanks. Kingofthedead (talk) 04:39, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:GibbonsMichael.jpg. 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. |

Updating maps
[edit]Hey when you are updating the us state election maps with corrections or the new shapes please don't needlessly upload new files when you can overwrite the original election maps. We already have the maps categorized with harmonizing names and we don't need duplicates/look alikes on here Putitonamap98 (talk) 07:42, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

File:TEAM-Photos21.png has been marked as a possible copyright violation. Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT. If you believe that the deletion was not in accordance with policy, you may request undeletion. (It is not necessary to request undeletion if using VRT; the file will be automatically restored at the conclusion of the process.)

Commons is not for personal files
[edit]![]() |
Do not upload files about your fictional or alternate history works to Commons. This includes election maps, flags, insignia, and other files. Commons has a specific project scope that requires files to have educational or historical value. Commons is not a personal webhost, and files solely for personal use (such as for illustrating web forums and games) are not allowed. Such files will be deleted, and you may be blocked from editing if you continue to upload these files. |
