First steps tutorial 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. Getting help 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.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

@Alachuckthebuck:Hi ,please check this (File:Logo Rapid Response 47 (USA).png) AbchyZa22 (talk) 09:51, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

Hello, the twitter account is not verified, and just links to the white house website, not it's own webpage. I have tagged for speedy deletion for this reason. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 19:01, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

@Alachuckthebuck:The twitter account says "affiliated a White House" in the check colour grises but the website of the White House says not copyrighted or says "CC-BY-3.0" (google translator). AbchyZa22 (talk) 19:27, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

I can't verify that it is an official account of the US government. That's the main issue. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 19:40, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

@Alachuckthebuck:Ok te voy a decir en español, según la cuenta Rapid Response en X (antes Twitter) (en el título lado derecho aparece una cuenta verificada que algunos llaman "check blue" o "check grises",las cuentas verificadas color grises son los que pertenecen a las cuentas para los presidentes ,gobiernos,etc. pero en la cuenta Rapid Response aparece una cuenta verificada color grises con descripción "cuenta afiliada a White House") AbchyZa22 (talk) 19:52, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

@Alachuckthebuck:Hi please check (File:Innate Immune Responses to Influenza Virus Infections in the Upper Respiratory Tract.jpg) and (File:Localisation of PRRs responsible for influenza viral recognition.jpg) (google translator). AbchyZa22 (talk) 13:11, 28 February 2025 (UTC)

Reviewing Flickr files

Hey, messaging you since you're a license reviewer (and because I recognized you). I've had some problems with some files (File:Imelda Padilla, 2023 (cropped).jpg, File:Imelda Padilla, 2023 (alt crop).jpg, File:Mayor Bass with Representative Cárdenas announcing funds for new bus shelters, 2023.jpg, File:Alberto M. Carvalho, 2023 (cropped).jpg, and File:Mayor Bass meeting with LAUSD Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho, 2023.jpg) as I placed {{PD-CAGov}} and a license review but the FlickreviewR 2 put a failed review on it. Some got deleted, but reinstated after I talked with the admins who deleted them, but I told them that I put the license review so that someone could add {{Flickr-unfree-but}} on it, and I wasn't sure if I could do so on my own. Was wondering if you could tell me what to do since you're a license reviewer. (also for File:George McKenna III, 2021 (cropped).jpg and File:George McKenna III speaking about the importance of COVID-19 vaccination, 2021.jpg, which haven't been reviewed yes). reppop^talk 03:12, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

Hello, The reason the review failed is because PD-CAgov only applies to state government, not local/municipal governments (like the city of LA and the mayors office) I cannot pass these files as they do have copyright, and the template you linked doesn't apply in this case, as it's used when someone changes the license on flickr, and there's an archive link. I hope that clears things up. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 03:21, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

But the PD-CAGov template directly states that it includes city and municipal governments? ("government unit (including state, county, city, and municipal government agencies)") The template of Flickr-unfree-but is also not for using when someone changes the license, that's {{Change-of-license}}, it's used to note that the Flickr file can't use a specific copyright template but it's still free (like File:Prime Minister Keir Starmer Portrait (cropped).jpg, which is non-commercial and no-derivatives but is under {{OGL3}}). reppop^talk 21:01, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

Also see Commons:Village_pump/Copyright/Archive/2023/12#Los_Angeles_government_Flickr_accounts. reppop^talk 21:04, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

I stand corrected on where the law applies. This issue should be raised with the city regarding their copyright claims (the only one that might have standing is photos with people from LAUSD. I'll check to make sure I'm using the correct template, and review the other files. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 21:26, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

Inserting with VFC

Hi, Chuck. When 'Inserting "{{speedy|F10}}"' with VFC as in Special:Diff/1014070216 (or the more expected "{{SD|F10}}"), please ensure that you terminate that line by tapping "Enter", to ensure that the next line is a proper heading. You will probably be interested in Commons:Deletion requests/File:Schelotto 4549.jpg, too. Thanks.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:20, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the Note, I accidently put "{{sd|f10}}" , causing it to appear as a langcode, not speedy deletion! All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 16:40, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

Hi Chuck!

I have carefully reviewed the licensing terms applicable to the image hosted on Wikimedia Commons at this link File:April 2025 eruption.png. As stated on the source page https://en.vedur.is/about-imo/the-web/conditions, “Unless stated otherwise, you are free to use photographs and data on the IMO websites and data servers; however, if the data are used for presentation, publication, or other development, reference must be made to the Icelandic Meteorological Office and the date of data downloading.” Accordingly, I have ensured that all required attributions—including the reference to the Icelandic Meteorological Office and the precise date of data retrieval—are properly included in the work, thereby fully complying with the stipulated terms.

Best regards,

Hi, Thanks for leaving a message. When initially reviewing, I saw the copyright notice on the bottom, and didn't see mention of a commons compatible license. sorry for the mistake! All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 04:38, 10 April 2025 (UTC)

Since the image was deleted due to an incorrect decision, could you kindly restore it? Gaggi96 (talk) 21:48, 10 April 2025 (UTC)

It's been undeleted, sorry for the mistake! All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 17:36, 13 April 2025 (UTC)
