Hi - thanks for contributing to the commons. However, there are a few problems with Image:285px-FernsehturmTaschkent.jpg (see the description page there). Generally, when copying material from a wikipedia, keep the following things in mind:

Always copy all information provided with the image, including who uploaded it.
Make sure the license info is complete (author, source, etc) and that it conforms to the commons licensing requirements (not fair use, etc)
Make sure you copy the full resolution image, not a scaled version. Note that images on the description page may be scaled too, in that case there's an extra link to the full version below the image.

Note that images that have been copied to the commons are often deleted from the original wiki. Because of this, it is very important to copy all information and the full resolution image, otherwise material may be lost or the license can no longer be verified. Thank you!

Please also have a look at Commons:Licensing and Commons:Criteria for inclusion. If you have questions, ask at the Commons:Village pump.-- Duesentrieb 15:38, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for responging. I belive this image is OK, but the license info in the german WP is incomplete: the info given with an image should always be sufficient to verify the license status; Information about source and author are important, "aus dem Fotoalbum" is a little imprecise. For PD images, the rationale for the PD claim should be given, i.e. old, government work, released explicitely, etc. I hope the uploader will clarify this - I have asked him on the talk page, but maybe you want to write him an email?

Generally, the license info must always be complete and verifiable. Images that just have a PD sticker without a way to check that are not acceptable. Sorry to be picky, and thanks again for contributing -- Duesentrieb 17:28, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

In reply to your questions:

I am thinking of uploading some pictures I took myself while travelling last year. When I upload such pictures, is it enough to say "Picture taken by me" followed by a PD template? Or is any extra information required?

With regards to licenses, the statement "Picture taken by me" plus a license tag like PD-self, GFDL-self or such is enough. But images should contain some more info - for that it would be best to use Template:Information (look at the talk page there for more).

The description page shuld contain info like what the image shows, when and where it was taken, etc. Also, images should always be put into categories and/or gallery pages with regards to the questions "what?" and maybe "where?" (some entry point to the category structure are on the Main Page). This way, the images can be found and used by others.

I was wondering if this Chinese copyright criterion is acceptable in Commons.

If the image is legally PD, it is acceptable to the commons. So, if a picture was created and published in china, and the chinese law says it is PD now, then the image is OK. Maybe we should have a Template:PD-China for that (maybe we do somewhere?)

If you are sure about the PD-rules of china, please add them to Commons:Licensing#Country-Specific Laws for future reference - that list is sadly incomplete until now. Thanks! -- Duesentrieb 18:37, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

I have drawn the first R.O.C. Flag (1912-1928) in SVG format, and I am going to use my SVG image to replace your PNG file. If you have any thoughts on it, feel free to drop a note on Commons:Deletion requests or tell me. :) --Kibinsky 18:12, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Saludos AngelRiesgo;

Tengo una pregunta. ¿Puedo subir a commons una captura de pantalla (screenshot) sobre el uso de Windows?

La situación es la siguiente, quiero ilustrar la autenticación de una contraseña en el artículo contraseña de la wiki en español.

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Hu4.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

你的中文水平很好！

我想，根据你的留言，在图像描述页上说明清楚应该可以的吧--Shizhao 11:32, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
