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?

Brachiale Löschaktion/Brachial extinguishing action

Paradise Chronicle (Diskussion) After I've realized, that you are also working as rigid terminator on other French architectural objects to abolish them from WIKIMEDIA Commons, such as the Unité d`habitation à Marseille, I hope that you are able to see the damage you are producing to the WIKIPEDIA Encyclopedia. Therefore I think you should give up your allegation of beeing an admirer of Le Corbusier and his work, which now COMMONwise falls into informative pieces like https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:La_Tourette_1.jpg and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Couvent_de_la_Tourette_-_9.JPG I do repeat my already expressed lack of understanding towards your action:

I don't understand, that your main effort seems to be the extinction of a lot of images which are important for the visual understanding of architecture, thus reducing the quality of Wikipedia as Encyclopedia. Most of these files (uploaded under the Wikipedia articles: Saint Marie e la Tourette and Notre Dame du Haut) sustained for different reasons any deletions since years, despite the surveillance of bots and the supervision of competent users and admins. Everybody who is struggeling in search of exceptions for image-publishing within the limits of French legislation is forced to interpret the code de la propriété intellectuelle (CPI), is bound to a shaky French FoP and has to be regardful towards the Wikimedia rules, which allow commercial usage of files, even if the author has no such usage in mind. Another dramatic handicap for Wikimedia/Wikipedia interests is the existence of the French ADAGP Society, which undermines a European solution and the improvement of FoP. Therefore riding only "No FoP in France" horses and the bureocratic use of "author´s death plus 70 years" as tunnel vision, does not help to develop and broaden worldwide knowledge.

After you made the proposal to upload images on WIKIPEDIA and not on WIKIMEDIA, which does not work, you are either absolutely not informed or - a member of the French ADAGP society... With this cynical joke I say (not good), but only bye. Peter Christian Riemann (talk) 10:52, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

You are maybe a bit emotional in your reaction to the DR. I have been affected by DRs as well. It's a normal thing to happen to a newcomer and I didn't get a personal explanation like you did. And I believe I was rather friendly and in search of cooperation in my approach to you. On the Wikipedia upload I was also surprised that it was possible in the German Wikipedia (apparently only at some time in the past), but it is still possible in the English wikipedia, so there you might be more successful. And the bots are often not reliable if it relates to DRs, as we notice often. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 13:30, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-18

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

Example of a talk page with the new design, in French.

• The appearance of talk pages changed for the following wikis: Azerbaijani Wikipedia, Bengali Wikipedia, German Wikipedia, Persian Wikipedia, Hebrew Wikipedia, Hindi Wikipedia, Indonesian Wikipedia, Korean Wikipedia, Dutch Wikipedia, Portuguese Wikipedia, Romanian Wikipedia, Thai Wikipedia, Turkish Wikipedia, Ukrainian Wikipedia, Vietnamese Wikipedia. These wikis participated to a test, where 50% of users got the new design, for one year. As this test gave positive results, the new design is deployed on these wikis as the default design. It is possible to opt-out these changes in user preferences ("Show discussion activity"). The deployment will happen at all wikis in the coming weeks. [1]
• Seven new wikis have been created:
  • a Wikipedia in Betawi (w:bew:) [2]
  • a Wikipedia in Kusaal (w:kus:) [3]
  • a Wikipedia in Igala (w:igl:) [4]
  • a Wiktionary in Karakalpak (wikt:kaa:) [5]
  • a Wikisource in Burmese (s:my:) [6]
  • a Wikisource in Malay (s:ms:) [7]
  • a Wikisource in Georgian (s:ka:) [8]
• You can now watch message groups/projects on Translatewiki.net. Initially, this feature will notify you of added or deleted messages in these groups. [9]
• Dark mode is now available on all wikis, on mobile web for logged-in users who opt into the advanced mode. This is the early release of the feature. Technical editors are invited to check for accessibility issues on wikis. See more detailed guidelines.

Problems

• Kartographer maps can use an alternative visual style without labels, by using mapstyle="osm". This wasn't working in previews, creating the wrong impression that it wasn't supported. This has now been fixed. [10]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 30 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 1 May. It will be on all wikis from 2 May (calendar). [11][12]
