Categories

Hi Alex, I created a category for your photos: Category:Photographs by Alexisrael. If you add this to the summary when you upload all your photos

[[Category:Photographs by Alexisrael]]

then they will all be put in this category.

Have a look at Category:Tennis players. What I tend to do, is if the player's country has a subcategory here (e.g. Category:Tennis players from Russia), put their photo in that category. e.g. I edit the image page and add

[[Category:Tennis players from Russia]]

to the page, and save it. The category appears at the bottom of the page.

If they don't have a country there (e.g. there is no Category:Tennis players from Cyprus), then I write in two categories:

[[Category:Tennis players]]
 [[Category:People of Cypus]]

(or whichever country it happens to be). Then hit save. Then you're all done.

Does it make sense? --pfctdayelise (说什么?) 01:00, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Also, this photo needs the original high resolution version: Image:Greg rusedski.jpg. (But you will have to wait 4 days to upload it, because of a software setting that stops new users overwriting existing files.) pfctdayelise (说什么?) 01:02, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks fantastic!! Nice shots! --pfctdayelise (说什么?) 06:51, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Ram

Nice pic of Ram ... but do you think you might crop it? The bottom half of it is mostly empty court. (or, if you prefer, I could try to do it). Tx.--68.173.101.114 06:53, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

File:IDF Soldiers Shooting Practice.jpg

We wanted to let you know that we've used one of your pictures in a project of ours: http://litpics.tumblr.com/post/23667699292/lit-a-book-for-the-young-by-sarah-french-pic

We created a computer program to generate random pairings of sentences from public domain texts and public domain / creative commons images. Some of the pictures we've selected come from the Wikipedia Commons. All the pictures we select ourselves, but the pairings and the text are random. Of these pairings that are generated, we only post the most interesting combinations.

We welcome any feedback about our site.

Thanks for sharing your pictures,
Samantha and Patrick

Alexisrael

Hello Alex, The photo that you placed on the Highland Falls, New York page is mostly of West Point property...and not Highland Falls. The Ladycliff College property was acquired by the federal government, and is now part of the Academy. It would be better to list photos of the many other picturesque areas in the village, such as Roe Pond, a perhaps an historic photo of Main Street ( as displayed on http://www.buttermilkbrook.com ).

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Alexisrael. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Alexisrael~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Use of Fuquay Varina Downtown Photo

Hello Alexisrael!

I work for a local home builder in the Fuquay-Varina area and my company would love to feature your photo on our website for a piece about Fuquay-Varina. Do we have your permission to do so? Do you have an email address I can communicate with you on? —Preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.142.216.110 (talk) 14:32, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Cigarette Rolling Papers.jpg

This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Cigarette Rolling Papers.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
