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:Kingfisher eating a tadpole.jpg

Hi. Your kingfisher picture is excellent but a review at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Common Kingfisher has found some problems with it. Would you be able to comment, particularly on the "white ear coverts" that look touched-up. Do you have the original raw file?

Wikimedia blog post

Bonjour Pierre,

Je m'appelle Matthew Roth et je travaille pour la Wikimedia Foundation à San Francisco.

Nous publions de temps en temps sur le blog Wikimedia ( https://blog.wikimedia.org ) des articles pour présenter les photographes dont les photos ont été promues "image du jour" (picture of the day, POTD) sur la page d'accueil de Wikimedia Commons.

Nos articles précédents (principalement en anglais) sont visibles ici: https://blog.wikimedia.org/c/communications/picture-of-the-day/

Votre photo "Pair of Merops apiaster feeding.jpg" va apparaître en tant qu'image du jour sur Commons le 28 mai, et j'aurais beaucoup aimé vous poser quelques questions par e-mail à propos de vos photos, et de cette image fantastique en particulier.

Je pense que nos lecteurs seront ravis d'en apprendre davantage sur cette photo, en particulier vu le succès de votre photo au concours de "l'image de l'année".

Seriez-vous d'accord pour répondre à quelques questions?

Je vous remercie pour votre temps. Matthew (WMF) (talk) 00:53, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Misuse of images

Utilisation d'une photographie

Bonjour,

Si vous ne le savez pas encore, cela vous intéressera peut-être d'apprendre que votre photographie Image:Pair_of_Merops_apiaster_feeding.jpg est affichée dans une exposition au zoo de Lille — ou du moins une photographie qui lui ressemble énormément !

Bonjour

est-il possible d'utiliser votre formidable photo "Pair of Merops apiaster feeding.jpg" ppur un petit calendrier et/ou une carte postale sur l'Ariège ? Si oui, à quelle conditions ? En tous cas, bravo pour cet instantané saisissant qui a probablement demandé des heures de repérage et d'approche.

File:Gypful.jpg

Dear Pierre,

I would love to use your great picture of Gyps fulvus for an educational cardgame for children in the area of Central Balkan National Park about the animals that live there. I plan to attribute you as follows: © CC BY-SA 3.0 Pierre Dalous. 2013 (or just P. Dalous)

I could add an URL on an extra sheet, but since it is a printed card game and for children, I dont think it would be useful. Please let me know if that is fine with you.

Much obliged

Daniel

Hi, on what basis did you identify the bird on the photo https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plik:Phybon.jpg ? I have doubts that it is Ph. bonelli because of different head and breast pattern. Could you verify your identification and correct in the description? I wpuld suggest Phylloscopus sp. Wireonek (talk) 21:00, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
