Adding Song Sample
[edit]Hello Admin,
I have seen many audio samples on Wiki, and wanted to upload one, which I did in the wrong way. I tried to copy/paste the codes from another sample, but I messed up. Please tell me how it's possible to do it.

Thank you Divimusic (talk) 06:27, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Divimusic,
- I have little experience wrt sound-uploads. I had deleted your upload only because it was clearly tagged as fair-use, which is expressedly not allowed on Commons.
- A short instruction about copyright for "sounds" is here: Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter#Music. A more detailled one about coypright for the U.S. (which is also relevant for uploads from other countries) is here: Commons:Hirtle chart#Sound recordings.
- Wrt your seemingly easy example: the copyright-situation seems to be quite unclear to me and therefore I have opened Commons:Deletion requests/File:The Song of the Twenty-Ninth Division.wav. --Túrelio (talk) 06:57, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
