African tulip tree flowering[edit]
Hi there. My name is Paul Peterson and I work for Landcare Research in New Zealand. I noticed your photo of African Tulip tree flowering on the internet. We need to visit Raro this year to map ATT as part of a Pacific Island research project into invasive weeds. When would you suggest we visit to see peak flowering? July/August? Any ideas greatly appreciated. Regards Paul. 130.123.31.16 08:02, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2022 voting is open![edit]
Read this message in your language
Dear Wikimedian,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth 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 (2022) 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 two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 1 will end on 1 May 2023, 23:59:59 UTC.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

No problem, i reverted your change to the original file and reuploaded your version to File:Bebe Rexha @ Wiltern 06 30 2023 (53047143292) (denoised).jpg, so it is now your time to reroute the FP nomination if need be to your version in File:Bebe Rexha @ Wiltern 06 30 2023 (53047143292) (denoised).jpg.

Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Che Guevara - Guerrillero Heroico by Alberto Korda.jpg[edit]
Little confused about your comment here. Am I missing something, did the server I found it on go down, or maybe I'm misinterpreting you? Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:14, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry if the Che Guevara poster is upsetting. A version of it was up on en-wiki FPC, and, well... it was a rather bad AI restoration, so I thought someone should do something about it and researched and restored this copy. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:08, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Adam Cuerden This is more because it is a figure used as propaganda in Cuba and Venezuela (my country), countries destroyed by communism/socialism. I am not interested in promoting this type of image --Wilfredor (talk) 13:24, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
Che Guevara[edit]
Hi, Please do not make this political. Thanks, Yann (talk) 18:45, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
- Yann It's not politics, it's reality, he's a murderer. Other people don't support some photos because they encourage war and I don't see you commenting on their user pages. I know very well your political leaning (leftist) who is turning this into a political issue is you. --Wilfredor (talk) 21:06, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
- You don't know what you are talking about (me). And yes, it is politics. Not to mention your poor knowledge of history. So you don't like Che Guevara, and that's fine. But don't put your political opinions into votes. If all people would do like you, it would be immediate chaos on Commons. So I formally request you to stop this slippery slope. Thanks, Yann (talk) 15:17, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
- I supported this nomination, but I'd like to defend Wilfredor's vote. There are a lot of people who do not like Guevara and find his transformation into a pop culture icon distasteful and/or potentially dangerous. Call it "lack of wow" if you want, but there are a variety of possible moral/ethical objections people express at FPC. I've seen opposes because of animal abuse, opposes due to allegations of propaganda, opposes due to the view that an image promotes a company/product, opposes because someone was standing on train tracks, etc. -- none of those have to do with the photo. To feature something is to highlight/celebrate it in a way, and I see no problem with objecting for moral/ethical reasons. Just my opinion, though. — Rhododendrites talk | 14:16, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Flickypedia soft launch and a huge thank you[edit]
Dear fellow Commons photographer,
I hope this message finds you well. As you might already know, the Flickr Foundation has been busy creating a new Flickr-to-Commons bridge (“Flickypedia”) this year. After a successful demo at the GLAM Wiki Conference in Montevideo, the Flickr Foundation team is now inviting all members of the Commons Photographers User Group to be the first to review their alpha, reporting any technical issues or other feedback via the Flickypedia project talk page.
At the same time, this message is an opportunity for me to thank you for your trust and support over the past couple of years. Since 2017, we've grown into being one of the largest user groups in the Wikimedia universe. I've tremendously enjoyed interacting with all of our members when it came to joint photowalks at Wikimanias, virtual Zoom meetings where we covered a wide variety of photography topics, as well as our annual “Most memorable shot of the year”, among many other events. As I'm not running for an official position in our current board election, this will be my last message on behalf of the user group to you. Thanks for all the happy moments we shared together over the years! I hope you'll continue creating free images for the millions of people we serve through Wikipedia and Commons.
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:36, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content—that is, images and other media files that can be used by anyone, for any purpose. Traditional copyright law does not grant these freedoms, and unless noted otherwise, everything you find on the web is copyrighted and not permitted here. For details on what is acceptable, please read Commons:Licensing. You may also find Commons:Copyright rules useful, or you can ask questions about Commons policies at the Commons:Help desk. If you are the copyright holder and the creator of the file, please read Commons:But it's my own work! for tips on how to provide evidence of that.
The file you added has been deleted. If you have written permission from the copyright holder, please have them send us a free license release via COM:VRT.

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Sao Paulo, Brazil 1312423 73.jpg[edit]
This file may be deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Sao Paulo, Brazil 1312423 73.jpg, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.
While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you! |

🌟 Happy Holidays, Wilfredor! 🌟 | ||
The turn of the year is approaching and with it the time for reflection. Let's take a moment and reflect a little. It is a time of festivals of light, from Hanukkah to Yule to Christmas, and in many cultures and religions it is a time of holidays, sometimes also family celebrations. And let's not forget that, according to our calendar, the new year is just around the corner. I wish you all: Joyeux Noël • Priecigus Ziemassvetkus • Fröhliche Weihnachten • Linksmu Kaledu • Merry Christmas • Il-Milied It-Tajjeb • Chestita Koleda • Vrolijk Kerstfeest • Glædelig Jul • Wesolych Swiat Bozego Narodzenia • Feliz Navidad • Feliz Natal • Roomsaid Joulu Puhi • Craciun Fericit • Iloista Joulua • Veselé Vianoce • Kala Christouyenna • Vesel Bozic • Kellemes Karácsonyi Ünnepeket • God Jul • Nollaig Shona Duit • Veselé Vánoce • Buon Natale • Mo’adim Lesimkha • I’D Miilad Said • Kung His Hsin Nien • Krismas Njema Na Heri |
