Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Aplucas0703!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Misidentification of File:Cornflower Closeup.jpg

• 
  your image
• 
  wild type Centaurea cyanus
• 
  Centaurea cyanus (illustration)
• 
  Centaurea montana
• 
  Centaurea triumfettii

Hi Aplucas0703, your image above does not show cornflower (Centaurea cyanus), but some different kind of Centaurea species with much narrower and more slender shapes of the showy tubular flowers in the flower head. Your image looks much more like Centaurea montana, which occurs as a wildflower in some areas, but is also a frequently cultivated ornamental plant. As you can see, Centaurea montana and Centaurea triumfettii resemble much more your image than Centaurea cyanus, which does not mean that your photograph must show one of these species. I modified the ID, but I am not sure about the actual species, e.g. because the involucral bracts are not in focus. --Robert Flogaus-Faust (talk) 22:12, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Autopatrol given

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. Abzeronow (talk) 01:20, 16 January 2026 (UTC)

Welcome, Dear Patroller!

Counter Vandalism Unit

Hi Aplucas0703,

You now have the Patroller right and may call yourself a patroller! Please take a moment to read the updated Commons:Patrol to learn how Patrolling works and how we use it to fight vandalism.

As you know already, the patrolling functionality is enabled for all edits, not just for new-page creations. This enables us to keep track of, for example, edits made by anonymous users here on Commons.

We could use your help at the Counter Vandalism Unit. For example by patrolling an Anonymous-edits checklist and checking a day-part.

If you have any questions please leave a message on the CVU talkpage or ask for help on IRC in #wikimedia-commons.
