Image Tagging Image:Hug_MSG_Incident.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Hug_MSG_Incident.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 content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.
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 {{self|cc-by-sa-3.0}} to release it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license 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.

- No, I didn't created that picture, but is for free use in the english wikipedia. So free use (not fair use) is ok right? --Gkittlaus 09:55, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Image Tagging Image:Scott_Hall_Autograph_2007.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Scott_Hall_Autograph_2007.jpg. This image is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or send an email with copy of a written permission to OTRS (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org).
Unless the permission information is given, the image may be speedy deleted after seven days. Thank you. GeorgHH • talk 01:10, 26 January 2008 (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.

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 05:51, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Your Flickr uploads[edit]
Hello Gkittlaus!
Thanks a lot for your contributions! Thank you for transferring images from Flickr to Commons! Two hints ahead:
- Always upload the highest resolution of a photograph that is available on flickr
- You can use this tool for your flickr uploads. It makes the hole procedure much easier and faster for you!
Thank you for your support! Greets, High Contrast (talk) 18:42, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Eine flache, nicht-dreidimensionale Darstellung des Kuchendiagrammes in File:Flaechennutzung goerlitz.PNG wäre einfacher zu "lesen". --ALE! ¿…? 08:16, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ich finde 3D nicht so schlecht, jedoch wenn möglich wäre auch SVG nicht schlecht. -- Perhelion (talk) 17:30, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
- Hm das ganze wurde damals in OpenOffice erstellt, nie gesichert und ist nun leider verloren. Eventuell komme ich dazu mal ein neues Diagramm zu machen. Eventuell eine inkludierende Säule? Mal sehen, ich werde es dann hier bereit stellen. Mit SVG kenne ich mich leider zu wenig aus. --Gkittlaus (talk) 07:49, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
