Hello, and thank your for sharing your files with Commons. There seems to be a problem regarding the description and or licensing of this particular file. Could you please resolve these problems, which are described on the page linked in above? Thank you. --Please link images[edit]
Hello!
Thank you for providing images to the wikimedia commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the commons should be useful to all users of wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.
To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate category and optionally place the images on topic pages (galleries), or do both (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.
You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.
The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!
Thank you. --Panther 13:04, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

- Hi, when and by whom was the gargoyle in this photo made? --Eleassar (t/p) 10:38, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, the original gargoyle is actually a Polystone Dragon resine statuette that was scanned with a Minolta Vivid 910 laser scanner by VCG-ISTI in 2005. The 3D model is available in various repositories and it is used in the scientific community as a test object. ALoopingIcon (talk) 12:16, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you. Is there is any source confirming that it is PD? I've tried to find it online but have not been able to. If there is none, I'm afraid the image can't be hosted at Commons, which would be a shame. --Eleassar (t/p) 07:16, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
- The triple gargoyle photo (real, digital, reproduced) is not PD, it is under a CC license. I created it and I released under that license. I can send a mail to OTRS to give a confirmed evidence of permission if you think that is necessary or I can put it on my web site with a statement that it is under CC. ALoopingIcon (talk) 08:09, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
- The statuette itself must be presumed to be copyrighted, if there is no evidence to the contrary. --Eleassar (t/p) 08:31, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I do not get the point. Are you saying that I cannot publish a photo where there are copyrighted objects? I mean also the macbookpro is copyrighted. I have uploaded on the commons a photo containing various objects, some of them are copyrighted. I think that 80% of the photos on commons contains copyrighted objects and nobody is objecting. I could argue on the upload of the 3D model of a copyrighted object, but this is not the case. ALoopingIcon (talk) 09:09, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, that's what I'm trying to tell you (see Commons:Copyright rules by subject matter#Art (copies of) and Commons:Derivative works). The mac seems like a utility object, it is therefore probably not an object of copyright. It would be best if you took another object (e.g. something that you can prove is in the public domain) and created another image of it, because it would be valuable if free. --Eleassar (t/p) 09:55, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Picture of the Year 2013 R1 Announcement[edit]
Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2013 is open![edit]
- ⧼Wikibase-terms/ALoopingIcon⧽: العربية, български, Deutsch, English, français, italiano, македонски, മലയാളം, 日本語, русский, svenska, اردو, 中文
Dear Wikimedians,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 1 will end on 7 February 2014. Click here to learn more and vote »
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Thanks for uploading File:TagLab Screenshot.jpg. 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. |
