Revision as of 00:13, 26 December 2009

I am a contributing editor of the English Wikipedia.

Trent Reznor in 2009
Sweet Honey in the Rock


I am completely new to Wikimedia and am hoping someone here will help me learn how to upload photos and place them in galleries etc. The same is true for those little sound clips that truly are great on barnstar pages.

Can someone give me a hand? Is there an adoption thing here? Please contact me if this is so. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 21:54, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Some favourite early uploads

Flickr

Notice Only Flickr images tagged as BY (CC-BY) or BY SA (CC-BY-SA) are allowed on Commons. If in doubt, please use the Flinfo tool or ask on the talk page.
Some more advanced information can be found at Commons:Flickr files/Guide.

Guidelines

  • Images should be tagged with {{Flickrreview}} for review by bot or trusted user.
  • Images verified as freely available should be considered free, even if the license on Flickr changes.
  • Images which are no longer freely available at time of review should be marked as possibly unfree pending a decision on what to do with them on Commons talk:Flickr files.

Manual

The Commons on Flickr

The Commons on Flickr hosts a number of files from various institutions that state that they have “No known copyright restrictions”.

See: {{Flickr-no known copyright restrictions}} and mail on commons-l, with discussion by George Oates, Flickr employee heading The Commons, expressing some reservations (The Commons on Flickr announcement).

Searching Flickr

A way of finding images on Flickr that can be uploaded to Commons is by using the search tools at Flickr. You can search images that are licensed by-2.0 or by-sa-2.0. The {{Flickr free}} template lets you search for images under either license.

Unfortunetely, not one stinking suggestion above works for me since I don't absorb people's instructions as quickly or easily as most people do, so prospective teachers here don't seem to hang around long enough be be certain that I actually understand how things work here.
