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. 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. |

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.

File:Kongshengtang logo.svg 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.) Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Deleted content
[edit]
- use in any work, regardless of content
- creation of derivative works
- commercial use
- free distribution
See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons, and Commons:Image casebook for some specific examples. Some other Wikimedia projects have different licensing policies. For example, the English Wikipedia allows fair use of sounds and photographs. This is not the case on Wikimedia Commons; "fair use" materials are not acceptable here.
Please make sure that you only upload educational content you have created yourself, those which are out of copyright, or those for which you have the required permission for the work to be used in all the ways described above. Please note that derivative works of copyrighted material are also considered copyrighted. Again, please read through Commons:Licensing, which is quite crucial, to understanding how Wikimedia Commons works. Thanks for your contribution, and please do leave me a message if you have further questions.Yours sincerely, Regasterios (talk) 18:32, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

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).

Rodnover art has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion 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. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category. In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you! |

Your diagrams
[edit]I really like your religious diagrams. Do you do them for just Rodnovery or all religions? MaitreyaVaruna (talk) 18:43, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hello MaitreyaVaruna. I am happy that my efforts are appreciated by someone. I did those representations of Rodnover theologies in the past few months as I have been studying Rodnovery and working on Wikipedia articles about its theologies. In 2018 I did something similar for Chinese theologies (cf. Category:Chinese symbols of godhead; constellations and characters of key theological meaning). In the future I will possibly make other diagrams as I will continue to study Rodnovery, and diagrams about other religions' theologies when I will shift my studies to them.--Æo (talk) 23:14, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Please help
[edit]Hey! Regarding File:Festival Ringing Cedars 2014 June 22 Колпаковы 06.JPG. I asked the photographer Kolpakov (Колпаков) to send permission to use the photo. He said he sent the letter. Tell me how can I find out if there was such a letter?
Subject: Разрешение на использование информации. Геннадий Колпаков
From: kolpakovg@gmail.com
To: permissions-ru@wikimedia.org
Date: June 11 or 12. 2015
Thank you in advance for your help. --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 13:49, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Лобачев Владимир: Apologies for my delay in replying but I have been busy. Kolpakov should have received a ticket as a response from permissions-ru@wikimedia.org. We can ask a check and verification to the Commons:VRTN.--Æo (talk) 11:10, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
