Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, RobbieIanMorrison!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions 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 (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

File:Openmod-logo-s2s4e-2020-srgb-907585.lores.png was recently deleted by Túrelio for reasons below. If you disagree with the deletion, you need to file an undeletion request.

Reason for deletion: Fair use material is not permitted on Wikimedia Commons (COM:CSD#F2)

It's best to discuss with the administrator who deleted your file before filing an undeletion request. Deletion Notification Bot (talk) 10:58, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Copyright status: File:Jump-logo-with-text.90500px.png

Copyright status: File:Jump-logo-with-text.90500px.png

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Jump-logo-with-text.90500px.png. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Logo for JuMP

This low resolution PNG file should now be deleted. Its usage on Wikipedia was replaced by a SVG variant which embeds a Creative Commons CC‑BY‑4.0 license as indicated. Thanks in advance, RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 13:23, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

File tagging File:Joseph F DeCarolis headshot 2022.jpg

This media was probably deleted.

Thanks for uploading File:Joseph F DeCarolis headshot 2022.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case. Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Joseph F DeCarolis headshot 2022.jpg]]) and the above demanded information in your request.

 

EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:41, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

EugeneZelenko, I have permission from Joe DeCarolis by email, but that is clearly not sufficient. So I will follow up with the VRT procedure as described. I am meeting Joe by video tomorrow and will make that request. It may well take more than 7 days for Joe to respond, so I ask for some grace in terms of early deletion.

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics)

In other languages (translate this)

Please use SVG Thank you for uploading some images! Did you know that Wikimedia Commons recommends the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for certain types of images? Scalable Vector Graphics are designed to look appropriate at any scale, and SVG images are easier to modify and translate, helping Wikimedia to distribute knowledge to all of the world. A lot of modern programs support SVG export. If you encountered problems or have questions, don't hesitate to ask me, a member of the Graphic Lab, or the Graphics village pump. Uploading images in SVG format isn't mandatory, but it would help. (To avoid any misunderstandings, please don't just put raster images into an SVG container as embedded raster.) Thanks, and happy editing!

--EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:41, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

EugeneZelenko Thanks for the comment. I am familiar with SVG and regularly use inkscape. I am currently talking to the creator of the JuMP logo (see above) to obtain an SVG version with a Creative Commons CC‑BY‑4.0 license embedded. That should be finalized in the next few days, I hope. At which point I will request that the File:Jump-logo-with-text.90500px.png file be deleted. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 16:42, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Negatives

Hello, Just curious, did something happen with this? -- Asclepias (talk) 12:45, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

@Asclepias: Yes! I now have high‑resolution scans of this image and others on the same roll of Ilford HP5. And a plan of how to upload and link both the TIFF scans and the JPG conversions. (But I got sidetracked into providing images from that same trip to a project on the German reunification being organized by the German Embassy in Aotearoa/New Zealand — so having to juggle my volunteer workload at present.) Thanks for asking. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 13:02, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
