Thanks for uploading Image:Flag of the Nordic Council.svg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multilicense GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Hello, Kikos!

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]

[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Hello Kikos!

Thanks a lot for your contributions! Thank you for transferring images from Panoramio to Commons! Two hints ahead:

• Always upload the highest resolution of a photograph that is available on Panoramio
• You can use this tool for your Panoramio uploads. It makes the whole procedure much easier and faster for you!
  

Thank you for your support! Greetings, High Contrast (talk) 18:40, 17 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Morning ☼ (talk) 10:54, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! --Kikos (talk) 12:29, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:South Orkney Islands location map GCS WGS.svg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear. If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

No required license templates were detected at this file page. Please correct it, or if you have any questions please contact me on my talk page. Yours sincerely, Jarekt (talk) 15:53, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oops! fixed. --Kikos (talk) 07:33, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Kikos! As written on FPC: Could you please give reason(s) for your opposes. This massively helps the photographers and is imho a courtesy because the people on Commons / FPC / QIC invest a lot of time to provide high quality photos. With en-3 it should not be a big deal for you to explicate your vote. E.g. I have no idea why you voted with  Oppose on File:Blick auf Kettwig mit Uferpalais im Herbst 2013.jpg. In detail reviews help the photographers to improve their skills. --Tuxyso (talk) 07:18, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comment at Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Streisand Estate.jpg/2.

I'd really like your advice:

The image was edited to be improved further.

What else can be done to adjust the image so you think it'd be satisfactory to you for Featured Picture quality?

Thank you for your time,

-- Cirt (talk) 06:53, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, no worries, thank you for your polite reply, -- Cirt (talk) 08:35, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for my not so diplomatic style :) I'm not so fluent in English to write in full politess - just to take to audience most important things :) For images like this may be we can create another nomination like "Wikivaluable pictures" or something like this to commemorate wikiroadstones. --Kikos (talk) 08:47, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

★ This image has been promoted to Featured picture! ★ The image File:Vagues et manchots à l'assaut de la plage.jpg, that you nominated on Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Vagues et manchots à l'assaut de la plage.jpg has been promoted.

Thank for your comment. I am sorry, I uploaded the wrong version, maybe you could check it again :) Thanks --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 02:25, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I do not ask you to support my images, you can oppose if you want. But after severals hours of work for one picture (find the good place, the good light, editing picture, publishing...), to hear that it does not look like a photo, is not very constructive but certain lack of respect in the formulation for the accomplished work, even if you don't like it. You can oppose and say you don't like colors, light, the edition or what you want. But even by not knowing how to very well speak English you can make a small effort not to be unpleasant. Thank you for your interest for my images. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 08:13, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What is "FPC"? Btw if You promote Your images to "the best of Wikiphotos" You should be ready to hear negative comments. It is sad when Your several hours work is fruitless but as a photographer You again should be ready for this. Two Your last images are disapointing. It happens. None of my own photographies are good enough to promote. It happens too. Be adult! I'll always tell what I think in my own way of English (even Latvian no one can understand). Be polite to understand that, please! --Kikos (talk) 08:41, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to have too fast reacted Kikos. Thank you for to have rewiew my picture. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 08:46, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
