Ravi Shankar

Hi, you added the redundant category "India", which I removed, to the Ravi Shankar page. The page has the category "Ravi Shankar", which is a subcategory of "Musicians from India", which is in turn a subcategory of "People of India by occupation", etc. all the way to the main category "India". Adding redundant categories makes categories as a whole less meaningfull, consider refraining from adding them in the future. Thank you Hekerui (talk) 20:29, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

#File_Tagging_File:Colchicum_Autumnale_Oxford.jpg

You just tagged this as requiring OTRS, but I am the author and copyright holder (check the link in the "author" tag, it goes straight to my userpage), I tagged it as "own" work... so my act of uploading and licencing is obvious permission. This has worked on every single one of my other images. Please can you clarify what you think is wrong? --99of9 (talk) 05:12, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Same here!!

You just tagged this File:Eriosyce napina FK 75 seeds.jpg as requiring OTRS? This image is mine and taken with my camera!! Why are you doing this?? I've been uploading images here for years, and now this!! Do you want me to quit uploading images??? Just tell me and I will!! Christer Johansson (talk) 07:32, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

No permission tagging

You have been brought up at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/User problems‎#Oirat's no-permission tags. Please be more careful in your "no permission" tagging. I clicked on a few of the files you tagged, and only 1 out of 3 or 4 actually tagged a file that needed permission. Killiondude (talk) 08:21, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

If you could talk to us on that thread, that would be great. Maybe you were just misguided? In any case, if you continue to add "no permission" tags to files that don't need them, you might be blocked. Please just communicate with us. :-) Killiondude (talk) 08:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Same here! (number three)

Thank you for your contributions.

Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter. Thank you for your understanding.
