Help on uploading images on Commons

Hi IbLeo,

You recently helped me with something - and yesterday I added some photos to wiki.

Only my second time (the other was two years ago) - and I have others photos I want to load to different pages (I am a news reporter and I own my photos/video).

Could you please check the "Gallery" I set up for the Lois Gibbs page - and make sure I did it correctly. I'm completely open to suggestions - but may have to be walked through the corrections - and suggestions.

Want to learn how to do it - but am really an amateur at this - and at this point feel like lots of the symbols are confusing.

• • For example - notice Pix #3 below - it ended up on two pages - instead of one like the rest. (what did I do wrong?)

Would like to add additional photos to a couple other pages in next week or so.

• • By the way - on every upload I did choose creative commons attribution/sharealike 3.0 - but in every upload - I got message I had not selected it or anything ref. license (when I am sure I had) - and then I had to do CC 3.0 selections again (no big deal just confused why it didn't take first time) - plus in most cases the system slightly renamed file.

(again no biggie and was grateful system did renaming for me).

Question #1 How does one decide to do gallery - or instead make one of those photos boxes on right side of page? (Did gallery because it was easiest)

Question #2 Please explain things in detail (sorry while I have done lots of html - mostly just the basics).

Question #3 Also - is it correctly to put abbreviation for Michigan as "MI" or "Mich." - or write out full word.

Question #4 For all the photos I originally wrote a little longer description (7 or 8 sentences) - then shortened it - how long should I make descriptions?

Sorry for answering you this late. Your entry somehow slipped past my attention. I am afraid I can't help you as I am not an expert in uploading images at Commons. Did you read the Wikimedia Commons Help Pages? – IbLeo^(talk) 06:30, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Capitalization of non-English song titles

I see that this subject has reared its head again at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums. I know that you were heavily involved in earlier discussions on the subject and thought that perhaps you would want to weigh in again. Kohoutek1138 (talk) 14:14, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
