Copyright
[edit]A image licensed under CC (or GFDL) cannot be copyrighted.
I am sorry to tell you you are wrong. Content under GPL, CC or GFDL is copyrighted (you just have to open the documentation of any program from the Free Software Foundation to see copyright tags). Then, the owner of the copyright grants some rights to others through some license. That's how it works, and how such content is different from "public domain". David.Monniaux 19:38, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Images from Stock.xchng
[edit]Dear sir,
I changed the copyright tag of images Image:Stephansdom.jpg and Image:Hundertwasserhaus.jpg because the STOCK.XCHNG TERMS OF USE are clearly incompatible with the Commons, more detail here.
Thank you very much, Gbiten 01:54, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Halló Thomas! Zu meiner Verwunderung musste ich feststellen, dass die Weiterleitung nach [[commons:]] eventuell auch nach anderen Projekten nicht mehr automatisch funktioniert. Ich habe mir erlaubt Image:Redirect arrow.png auf Deinen Seiten bei ro: und eo: einzubauen. Gruß aus München Gangleri | Th | T 16:26, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Euro coins
[edit]Hello, I'm sorry but I added a {{Deletionrequest}} on Image:Coins.jpg. « The copyright on the design of the common face of the euro coins belongs to the European Community represented by the Commission ». (see the section « Euro commons face coins photos » in Commons:Deletion requests. —FoeNyx 18:49, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Bildinformationen fehlt
[edit]Hallo, vielen Dank für das von dir Commons zur Verfügung gestellte Bild. Nun fehlen nur noch einige Bildinformationen auf der Bildbeschreibungsseite.
Wenn du willst, kannst du diese Formatierungsvorlage kopieren, einfügen und anpassen:
* Beschreibung: Was ist zu sehen? (Bei Fotos nach Möglichkeit auch Ort und Datum der Aufnahme angeben.) * Quelle: (z.B. „selbst fotografiert“ oder Quellenangabe mit ggf. Weblink) * Fotograf oder Zeichner: (Name) * Lizenz:
oder besser verwende die Vorlage Template:Information.
Bitte gebe beim Hochladen von Bildern in die Commons auch immer eine passende Kategorie an oder füge die Bilder zu einem Artikel (englisch: Gallery) hinzu. Denn Bilder ohne Kategorie bzw. die nicht in Artikeln verlinkt sind können per Suchfunktion nicht gefunden werden ! Ich weis, es ist nicht immer einfach eine Kategorie zu finden. Suche Bilder zu dem Thema. Bei diesen Bildern sollte (hoffentlich) bereits eine Kategorie eingetragen sein. Verwende diese dann - wenn sinnvoll. Um die richtige Kategorie zu finden ist auch das Tool CommonsSense. sehr hilfreich. Danke für Deine Mithilfe ! -- gildemax 19:47, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit]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.--gildemax 18:22, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Thomas G. Graf. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Thomas G. Graf~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Copyright status: File:Hauptgerade.png
[edit]This media may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading File:Hauptgerade.png. 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. |
