Wikimedia Commons has a specific scope[edit]
Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content 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.

Can you see if you can reword this better? - Jmabel ! talk 17:27, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2024 voting is open![edit]Dear Wikimedian, Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2024 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year is the nineteenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2024) to produce a single Picture of the Year. Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more. For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and top 5% of most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year. Round 1 will end on UTC. Thanks, You are receiving this message because you voted in the 2023 Picture of the Year contest. Autopatroller[edit]Hi, I gave you the Autopatroller right.

Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2024) to produce a single Picture of the Year. Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more. In this second and final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2024. Round 2 will end at UTC. If you have already voted for Round 2, please ignore this message. Thanks, Please be more careful about replying on Help desk, etc.[edit]This is not the first time I've seen you give an actively wrong or misleading reply on a very public-facing project page. Please be more careful. If you don't know the relevant policy well yourself, please do not try to answer someone's question, especially in a way that sounds like you are saying something definitive. People rely on the answers they get there. You could have wasted this person's time on a complete irrelevancy, and the might have gotten legitimately angry at the "bad help" they received. - Jmabel ! talk 02:48, 10 October 2025 (UTC) And, in fact, I see you followed that with another piece of basically bad advice to another Help desk question. Someone had basically described writing a document that is original research; you told them to go ahead and upload, but what they described is almost certainly out of scope. - Jmabel ! talk 03:03, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
