Local file: Select a file on your local computer that you want to upload.
If you want to upload a file from some other website, you must first download it to your local computer before you can upload it here. Please take note that most images out there are copyrighted and not freely licensed. See also our image casebook for explanations about which kinds of images are fine to upload, and which pose problems or should not be uploaded at all.
External URL: Select a externally hosted file that you want to upload.
Please note: You can only transfer images from allowlisted websites.
Please take note that most images out there are copyrighted and not freely licensed. See also our image casebook for explanations about which kinds of images are fine to upload, and which pose problems or should not be uploaded at all.
Source: Where did this file originally come from? Give as much information as you can. If you need more than one line, click the button to the right of the field.
Source information is mandatory for all uploads to the Commons. Please do not upload files taken from known bad sources, and be careful with uploads from problematic sources.
If you give a URL as the immediate image source, make sure it's a URL to an image description, or to a web page where the image is used. A link to the plain image file is of no use.
Author: You must indicate the author(s) of this work. Give as much information as you can. If you need more than one line, click the button to the right of the field.
If there is a {{Creator}} template for a famous author, use it. (See the list.) For instance, if Creator:Charles Roscoe Savage exists, entering "{{Creator:Charles Roscoe Savage}}" in the field will add a box giving relevant information about that person, and also automatically add the file uploaded to a category containing works by this author.
For instance, if you've cropped away a border, say so. Or if you're uploading a larger, but otherwise identical, version of the already existing file, write "Larger version from ", followed by the source of the new version.
Your description will appear as an edit summary; it will not appear on the file description page itself! If the new version comes from a different source, or has a different author or license, please also update the file description page after the upload.
If the new version you want to upload differs substantially from the already existing file, it is almost always better to upload the file under a new name instead of overwriting the existing file.

Description: describe the contents of the file you want to upload. A description is mandatory.
Choose the language of the description in the drop-down menu on the left. If you want to add more descriptions in other languages, click the button below the last description field: this will add a new field for another description.
Permission: If the work you want to upload is copyrighted, but you have an explicit permission to license it under a free license, forward any such permission to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org
, and place {{subst:PP}}
in this field. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
If you know that your file falls under a specialized copyright rule not covered by the licenses mentioned in the "License" drop-down menu below, you may also write a copyright tag directly in this field instead of choosing a license below. If you use a "user license" defined in a subpage of your user page, you must "subst" it. A transclusion of a user license will not be accepted as a license.
Patent permissions: If this file is your own work, the WMF Patent License ({{3dpatent}}) is required. Additionally, 3D files depicting weapons are not allowed. Click here for more information.
- are explicitly licensed under a free license such as the GFDL, the Creative Commons licenses {{Cc-by-4.0}} or {{Cc-by-sa-4.0}}, or similar free licenses, or
- are in the public domain both in the U.S. and in the source country of the work.
License: The Commons accepts only media that are explicitly licensed under a free license, or that are in the public domain. Only upload images from Flickr if the Flickr page states that the image was licensed under the Creative Commons licenses {{Cc-by}}, {{Cc-by-sa}}, or {{Cc-pd}}.
Caveats:
- Most Flickr image pages contain a statement "This image is public". This is not a copyright statement. It just means that the image can be viewed by anyone.
- The copyright statement at Flickr is a line saying "© All rights reserved" or "Some rights reserved" or "No known copyright restrictions".
- If it says "All rights reserved", the image is not freely licensed, and must not be transferred to the Commons.
- If it says "Some rights reserved", click on that text (it's a hyperlink). This takes you to a license page explaining the licensing conditions for that image. If that license says anything about "non-commercial" or "no derivative", it's not a free license, and the image must not be moved to the Commons. If it only mentions "attribution" or "share-alike", then it's basically ok. But check our image casebook to see whether it really might be acceptable here.
- If it says "No known copyright restrictions", the Flickr image is in the Flickr Commons. Such files may also be uploaded here. (For such images that come from the U.S. Library of Congress, it may be worthwhile though to get an even higher resolution image from the library's own repository. Check the "persistent URL".)
- Please note that Flickr, like the Commons, allows anyone to upload any image. As a result, there may be wrongly licensed images on Flickr. Always think about whether the Flickr user has correctly licensed the image. For instance, if it's a screenshot, the Flickr user does not own the copyright and thus cannot license the image freely. See our guidelines and hints on some help on this.

You must give the original source of the file, the author of the work, and a license. The target filename must not be empty. The target file name appears to be a URL. The target file name must not contain "/". Please use a more descriptive target file name. The target file name must have a file type extension (like for example ".jpg"). Files of this type cannot be uploaded. Please correct the double file type in the target file name. The source must be a URL pointing to the image description at Flickr. Please give a description of the contents of the file you want to upload. You must give a description of the changes to the file you will overwrite. Help text not found. Please report this error at the Administrators' noticeboard, telling which message was missing and what your user interface language setting is. Thank you. You will upload over an already existing file. Please choose a different filename, unless you are uploading a technically improved version of the same file. Don't overwrite a file with a different image of the same topic. If you overwrite, the information in this form will not appear on the description page.
Hints
Name of the file at Commons after the upload. Use a descriptive file name (tips). Where does this file come from? (more) Who created this file? Also, if it shows some artwork, who created that? Date of creation and/or first publication of the work ("YYYY-MM-DD" format). If this is not your own file, or the work was already published elsewhere, use {{Permission pending|month=November|day=1|year=2024}} and send permission by e-mail. The field can also be used for specialized license tags. Use for geolocation tags and other specialized information (such as {{Consent}} for images of identifiable living people). Click (+) to add categories. Enter the URL of the image at Flickr.
