Hello, Luckybluejay27, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

[edit]

Hi! I saw that you uploaded two images, File:BigbannerV2.png and File:Am2r logo.png, to Wikimedia Commons. The issue, however, is that I can't see where these images were released under a license compatible with Commons. There is also the issue of the copyright owned by Nintendo of America, who issued a DMCA against the project because it infringed on their copyrights concerning Samus and Metroid.

What this means for the images is that they should not have been uploaded to Commons since they are presumably held under a copyright that would not allow others to adapt or re-use the material. With images in general on the Internet, always assume that they are cannot be added to Commons because they are held under a restrictive copyright. Even if the copyright is missing, always assume that it cannot be added. I would like for you to review the training module on uploading images and media. I would also like to ask that you request the images be removed from Commons - I can do this for you if you prefer. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:37, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
