W11: Wikimedia Commons

1. Summary: Uploading content to Wikimedia

I was able to see the general information about the format and method of the content. In simple terms, Wikipedia Commons is one of several wiki series, and is a site where media contents are stored.

Content uploaded here must follow a shareable license, and you cannot use other people's works without permission. This is because the materials uploaded here should be freely available to anyone, but bringing a work published by another person is an act of overtaking.

In addition, I learned about details about the resolution of the image I uploaded, but as anyone can think, it is difficult to upload an image that is too large.

Of course, the resources here are available on Wikipedia.

 

2. What helped

It was interesting about categorization. The categories are subdivided deeper than I thought, so it's nice to be able to put them in detailed categories when uploading certain media content. As a huge amount of media has been uploaded, it seems to have been subdivided into such a depth.

We can also publish this category ourselves, in which case we just need to look at the structure of the other categories and learn the rules and follow them.

In addition, the explanation of the case where the image is blocked and invisible was also impressive. In conclusion, the user's computer with the advertisement blocking program installed recognizes the image as an advertisement due to specific words in the address of the image and does not show it.

 

3. Topics to be discussed

What are the benefits that anyone can get by uploading their own photos to a sharing platform? Also, can the licenses of the images uploaded here be 100% completely managed? Can you perfectly catch other people's content without permission?
