Hello, and thank your for sharing your files with Commons. There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. Please remember that all uploads require source, author and license information. Could you please resolve these problems, which are described on the page linked in above? 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. This page may give you more hints on which information may be missing. Please note that if you won't provide a valid license in 7 days your image will be delated and if you upload a lot of images without licenses you may be blocked from editing wikimedia-commons. Thank you.

Map
[edit]Assuming you are the same person as Wikipedia, I've left a comment on that talk page, regarding the map Ctjf83 (talk) 07:07, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
Please help replace this outdated license
[edit]Hello!
Thank you for donating images to the Wikimedia Commons. You have uploaded some images in the past with the license {{PD}}. While this was a license acceptable in the early days of Wikimedia, since January 2006, this license has been deprecated and since October 2008 no new uploads with this license was allowed.
The license on older images should be replaced with a better and more specific license/permissions and you can help by checking the images and adding {{PD-self}} if you are the author or one of the other templates that you can see in the template on the image page.
Thank you for your help. If you need help feel free to ask at Commons talk:Licensing or contact User:Zscout370.
The images we would like you to check are:

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) 10:57, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hey, I see your maps on the United States political maps, and I love your work. I am currently editing Muammar Gaddafi, and I don't know if you are up to it, but if you know how to do a world map (which I don't), I would love your help. I have all the nations he has visited and sent funds to during his tenure in a list form. It is very important because it provides an idea of his sphere of influence in the world, and I think it would be incredibly valuable. It will take at least 15-20 minutes on your part, and your talents will help so much. If you are interested, please let me know. I would be very excited to have help and am willing to give you a barnstar without question for the hard work.
Please contact me on the English wikipedia and I'll send you the list. I don't use my talk page on wikicommons.Again, thank you so much!
Sincerely,

Edit request for File:State recognition of same-sex relationships (North America).svg
[edit]- Could you stripe the Mexican states that have civil unions/recognize ssm? Oregon is in the same boat as them yet Oregon is striped and they aren't.
