Welcome!
[edit]Welcome!
Hello, Arbaazmu.4, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.
Did you know that ...
- ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
- ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
- ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
- ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
- ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process – at least until you get the hang of things?
If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- Manual of Style

- Hi Arbaaz, and welcome again to Wikipedia. Only admins can delete photos from Commons, but since the articles are tagged for speedy deletion, an admin should get around it somewhat shortly. There are over 600 files waiting for deletion, so it could take a little while for them to get to it.
- Please do read the above message closely, as well as this page: Commons:Licensing - Wikimedia Commons
- As a quick summary:
- In general, you should only upload pictures that you have personally taken.
- Almost every image on the Internet is copyrighted by the photographer by default. The photographer has to explicitly grant permission for anyone to copy, modify, and sell the image.
- You can only upload images you find on the Internet if they have an acceptable license, like Creative Commons' CC-BY and CC-BY-SA licenses.
- If you aren't absolutely sure the image is covered by an acceptable license, do not upload it to Commons.
- Again, welcome to Wikipedia, thank you for your contributions, and please let me know if you have any further questions. POLITANVM talk 15:06, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
Hello Politanvm, thankyou for giving your precious time for guiding me. I found the above details very helpful and definitely I'll try my best here and not to repeat such mistakes again. Once again Thankyou Hava a nice day. Arbaazmu.4 (talk) 05:41, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
Paid editing, conflicts of interest, and promotion
[edit]Hi, I see on your Instagram that you advertise Wikipedia editing services. Please be aware of Wikipedia’s policies regarding paid editing (WP:PAID), conflicts of interest (WP:COI) and promotional editing (WP:PROMO). In short, you must disclose any edits you’ve been paid for, should avoid making edits to articles directly (instead, you should suggest edits on an article’s talk page), and avoid using Wikipedia for advertising and promotion. Let me know if you have any questions after reading through these policies. POLITANVM talk 14:40, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
