Welcome!

Hello, FuturPDUCTIONS, and welcome to Wikipedia! I have noticed that you are fairly new! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I also see that some of your recent edits show an interest in the use of images and/or photos on Wikipedia.

Did you know that ...

• ...Wikipedia has a very stringent image use policy?
• ...most images from Flickr, online news websites, and other web sources are copyrighted?
• ...Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously?
• ...freely-licensed images should be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, a central location for images where they can be used on all Wikipedia projects?
• ...we recommend that new users use our "files for upload" process – at least until you get the hang of things?

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  HurricaneTracker495 (talk) 19:02, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Will you add your cookie to your userpage? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poxy4 (talk • contribs) 19:20, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

I gave you a barnstar, which is just as good as a cookie. FuturPDUCTIONS (talk) 05:07, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Can Images Stay?

Are my images allowed here? I will ask for people who delete images to not delete them. I've made them.— Preceding unsigned comment added by FuturPDUCTIONS (talk • contribs)

This is one of them.

Why are my images deleted? What did I do wrong? Am I wronged or am I a bad user? WHY?!

The license for the images was incompatible with Wikipedia; an image cannot be limited to Wikipedia use only or non-commercial use. Images uploaded to Wikipedia must in most cases permit reuse with attribution, even for commercial purposes. Please see WP:UPIMAGE for more information. If you don't want others to use your images for commercial purposes, you can't upload them here. 331dot (talk) 17:32, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Hi, FuturPDUCTIONS. No, you're not a bad user; mistakes with copyright, permissions, and image uploading is very common, and certainly nothing you've done implies that you're trying to do anything wrong. But unfortunately, no, your images cannot be hosted on Wikipedia as you've currently done. You made the comment on all of your uploads that I will not allow the use of this image other than my own userpage. Such a restriction is incompatible with the licenses that Wikipedia requires you to agree to when you upload an image; namely, the CC-BY-SA license, which allows for reuse or modification for any purpose in any place whatsoever, as long as the original author is credited. So, once you upload these images to Wikipedia, you cannot restrict their usage to just your user page, or in any other way. Since this doesn't seem to be what you want, I've deleted the images for you, but be aware that, technically, you already agreed to release these images under the CC-BY-SA license, and you can't take it back. Please be careful with uploading images to Wikipedia in the future; it is not an image hosting service, and uploading images to Wikipedia has consequences. Thanks, Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 17:33, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Okay, understood. What I will do then is not upload another image again.

Hey there

Hey there, FuturPDUCTIONS, and welcome to Wikipedia! I am also a user on HHW (username: Destroyeraa1), and I am glad you are here.

First, have some cookies.

		Cookies!
		Destroyeraa has given you some cookies! Cookies promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. You can spread the "WikiLove" by giving someone else some cookies, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. To spread the goodness of cookies, you can add {{subst:Cookies}} to someone's talk page with a friendly message, or eat this cookie on the giver's talk page with {{subst:munch}}!

Second, it may be discouraging to have your images deleted. I have several deleted files too. However, I encourage you to add more files to Commons once you've read the guidelines and have gotten the basic gist of what files are allowed and what files aren't.

Finally, please sign you name whenever you reply or write a message on a talk page, including your own. To sign your name, just type ~~~~.

If you have any questions or you need help, feel free to reach out to me. Cheers, ~ Destroyer🌀🌀 21:11, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Umm....

Will you add your cookie to your userpage? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poxy4 (talk • contribs) 01:03, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Umm, I don’t see other users adding wikiloves to their userpage other than barnstars, so no is the answer. Sincerely, 🌀 FuturPDUCTIONS 🌀. | Want to talk? My Talk Page | 05:57, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
