Wikimedia Commons has a specific scope

---

Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content, File:Andrew McCarter (8215451645).jpg, was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope. Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter. Thank you for your understanding.

@Jeff G.: Were you in your right mind when you left this notice about recent deletion, five years after deletion? I don’t need your notifications for files which I tagged as needing deletion because of copyvio versions. Look at the file history and you’ll see Taivo deleted a version, which I tagged after uploading a non-copyvio version. FredWalsh (talk) 19:23, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

File copyright status

Welcome to Wikimedia Commons. While everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the project, one or more of your file uploads had missing or false information regarding its source and copyright status. Please note that Wikimedia Commons takes copyright rules and infringement very seriously. Files may only be uploaded and included if their copyright status meets the conditions stated in our licensing policy, and if their provenance is clearly documented. Files that fail to meet those conditions may be deleted, and users who fail to meet them may be blocked. Please follow our first steps, if you haven't already. If you have questions, feel free to ask at the Village Pump copyright question page or on my talk page. Thank you. In addition, when you open or add to DRs like Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Kelly Madison, you need to notify uploaders like me. You also need proper justification when attempting speedy deletion.   — Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me} 12:24, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

@Jeff G.: A bit late with the welcome aren’t you? I’ve been on this wiki for six years and don’t need a patronising message from you. Care to tell me which file was missing EI, or do I have to guess what you’re talking about? Oh, I see, you were just pissed because your crop got deleted. Well, read the DR again and you’ll see I did ask about the ticket, to which you replied about the website. You made no mention of a business partner at the time. So, keep your euphoria to yourself when you get pics restored after a legitimate DR, instead of trying to paint me as some sort of evil bastard who spoiled your fun. By the way, are you making these stupid edits because you are thinking of running for sysop again? FredWalsh (talk) 19:33, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Category:Kevin_Wang_on_Haulover_Beach

Kevin Wang on Haulover Beach has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category. In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!
