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.BotMultichillT (talk) 06:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- Image:MacedoniansGERberlin.png is uncategorized since 6 January 2009. BotMultichillT (talk) 06:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked 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 license to choose. Thank you.

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

Hi Wikcom,
there may be copyright problems with some of your images:
- File:AlexanderBustAirportSkopje.jpg is said to be from "Cukiger". Is this the sculptor, who made the head, or the photographer? If it's the sculptor, is he dead since >70 years already? If it's the photographer, do you have his written permission?
- File:TitoPetkovski.png and File:ToniMihajlovski.png look to be screen captures from TV. Could you please clarify. --Túrelio (talk) 16:28, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi wikcom,
after the input from User:Future Perfect at Sunrise I have requested all above mentioned images for regular deletion due to high suspicion of being TV captures/copyvios. Despite some suspicion of socket-puppeting, I will not block you for the moment to give you the opportunity to participate in the deletion discussions of the above mentioned images. With all due understanding of your need to get images for articles about public figures from Macedonia, you have to understand on your part that what is sent on TV is copyrighted and that you cannot simply take a still/capture/screenshot from it and then even claim it to be own work. If there is no legally obtained image, then an article on Wikipedia will have to stay without an image. In cases of politicians you can always ask their office if they can provide you an image over that they have full rights.--Túrelio (talk) 11:11, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Deletion tag removals
[edit]You can't simply remove those deletion tags like that. Go to the IfD discussion, argue "keep" if you like, and wait for the admins to close it. Please revert your removals on the image pages. Fut.Perf. ☼ 10:06, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
Wikcom,
RFDs are closed by admins, but not by removing the RFD template and link from the images by yourself. By doing this you have weakened your position.--Túrelio (talk) 13:07, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
Please do not remove descriptions in Bulgarian
[edit]Hi. Welcome to Commons and thanks for your contributions! On Commons, all languages are welcome in the description of the pictures, and they are usually ordered alphabetically. Please do not remove descriptions or translations in Bulgarian language as you did here, here again, here, here, here again and here. If you have any questions, please read through the help section. Thanks for your understanding. --5ko (talk) 19:17, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
