User talk:Kasutaja
Our first steps tour and our FAQ will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy. You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold contributing here and assume good faith for the intentions of others. This is a wiki—it is really easy. More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (direct access). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at Commons talk:Licensing. |

Please tag your images
[edit]
Thank you for providing images to the Commons. Please keep in mind that images and other files on the Commons must be under a free license and should be useful to the Wikimedia projects. To allow others to use your files, some additional information must be given on the description page. Most importantly:
- Describe what it is about in a short sentence. (What does the image show?)
- State the author and the date of creation. If you made it yourself, say so explicitly. If it is from another Wikipedia user, link to the person's local user page. Best use CommonsHelper
- If you did not create the file yourself, state the source you got it from.
- Add a copyright tag - images without an appropriate license tag will be deleted.
- Add the image to one or more gallery pages and/or appropriate categories, so it can be found by others. To find out where an image belongs, you can use CommonsSense.
If you copied the file from another wiki, please copy all information given there and say who uploaded it to that wiki. Use CommonsHelper.
It is recommended to use Template:Information to put that information on the description page. Have a look at Template talk:Information for details of the use of this template.
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.
Please add as much information as possible. If there is not sufficient information, the file may have to be deleted. For more information, follow the Commons:First steps guide. If you need help or have questions, please ask at the Help desk.
Thank you.

Image Tagging Image:SMART_Board_interaktiivne_lame_ekraan.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:SMART_Board_interaktiivne_lame_ekraan.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|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multilicense GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version 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.

SMART Technologies ULC
[edit]Thank you for your recent message on my talk page. The problem is that we need to confirm not only that you are in a position to release the images under a free license, but also that you do in fact understand and agree to the various licensing conditions. A number of the images you have uploaded had no license template and stated that permission to use them on Wikipedia was granted. Wikipedia only permission is not acceptable, for images to be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons and used on Wikipedia they have to be available under a free license. I understand that you are a distributor for SMART technologies ULC and that you say that you have rights to use any of their images, however, I would strongly suspect that this permission doesn't extend to releasing these images under a free license and this would be something I would seek to confirm the SMART technologies ULC themselves if you do maintain that you can release these images. Adambro (talk) 18:34, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
Hello!
We are currently asking SMART Tech ULC to provide us somekind of a letter that will ensure that we are distributors of their products and allowed to use pictures and logos
Best regards,
Kasutaja
