Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Joris Darlington Quarshie!

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.

SDC tagging

It would be more useful to add P180: La Moneda instead of a bunch of meaningless tags... — Draceane ^talk_contrib. 08:28, 17 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

see discussion in Damage_control_and_rules_needed_for_structured_data.Smiley.toerist (talk) 10:11, 17 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello, please, see Commons:Depicts#What_items_not_to_add; generic items should not be added, the specific item was already linked. -- Syrio posso aiutare? 20:34, 24 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

I meant edits like this. You add Structured data, but in very general terms: instead of stratovolcano (Q169358), the proper value should be Calbuco (Q1026302) itself. — Draceane ^talk_contrib. 13:41, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Oh okay well noted how do I get to know about the proper values of these structured data because all what I see are words describing the image. So I select those words that describes the image.

So if you can enlighten me I will be very thankful. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 13:45, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Notification about possible deletion

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Some contents have been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether they should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at their entry.

If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Copyright violations

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello Joris Darlington Quarshie.

You have uploaded one or more files that are copyright violations. You have done so despite requests from editors not to do so, and despite their instructions. See Commons:Licensing for the copyright policy on Wikimedia Commons. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter useful.

This is your last warning. The next time you upload a file that violates copyright, you will be blocked. Please leave me a message if you have further questions.

I don't understand why all these photos have to be deleted. At first the problem was that i uploaded some photoshoot photos i took myself. Now all these photos i have taken and uploaded myself have issues with copyright violations which doesn't seem clear to me.

If I am not allowed to upload to any photo, please do let me know because this does not sound well to me. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 18:19, 6 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Secondly, since this is a notification that relates to photo upload, i have decided not to upload any photo again on commons to avoid all of these issues because i don't like this back and forth. Joris Darlington Quarshie (talk) 18:23, 6 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
