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.

Note

Sorry about this; it was just a misclick. Эlcobbola _talk 19:03, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

No worries, figured - no harm no foul anyway, it was an auto notice to a blocked user so it wouldn't have changed anything :) User:elcobbola :) Berchanhimez (talk) 19:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

That dot was meant to be a dummy edit because I accidentally hit the publish button before finishing the edit summary. WestVirginiaWX (talk) 18:00, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Apologizing for the warning and personal attacks

@Berchanhimez, I just want to apologize for everything that happened during that argument. I did have a warning message (that I crossed out); but I went ahead and removed my warning. Of course, if there are formality issues with that, you’re more than welcome to re-add it and archive it (it’s still in the page history). WestVirginiaWX (talk) 01:38, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

All is fine. It is a complex issue with a cross of opinion on "how precautionary" we must be and combined with incomplete information from the NWS. Berchanhimez (talk) 20:31, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

RfC: Third-party images published by the National Weather Service

I've now reviewed 1,000 images uploaded under the rationales expressed in the {{PD-NWS}} template and requested deletion of several.

The arguments for deletion, and to keep, are now following repetitive, predictable patterns and it would greatly help all involved if we could centralise discussion and obtain some wider community input.

Therefore, I have opened an RfC to gather opinions. Apologies in advance: it's long and detailed, but is frankly nothing compared to the words and time expended by all parties up to this point. Probably the most crucial issue revolves around how we interpret a general disclaimer published at weather.gov (Q.1 in the RfC).

Your advice is greatly appreciated! --Rlandmann (talk) 10:41, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the notice, I am gathering my thoughts to comment there. Berchanhimez (talk) 03:44, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
