== Images to Commons ==

Hi. I notice you copied a bunch of my images to Commons. At least I think that's what happened. I'm having a little trouble understanding how this works. The ones you did, a template says, "This file is now available on Wikimedia Commons as File:William Van Altena House May09.jpg." And I can still edit the image page, and it still has the Misplaced Pages categories, and such. But some others, that were done some time ago say "This is a file from the Wikimedia Commons. The description on its description page there is shown below." And I can't edit them or categorize. Can you explain this to me, or direct me to some resource regarding the "Commonizing" of images? I'd appreciate it. -] (]) 19:08, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

{{help me}} Can you please tell me how to edit the title of an article? I found one with an obvious typo. Jdsteakley (talk) 16:41, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

I don't think you are autoconfirmed, so you don't have permission to do that. Please tell me the rename you would like, and I'll do it for you. fahadsadah (talk,contribs) 16:42, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
Hello, thank you for offering to make the correction on an article title. It is: Whistling Woods International Institute for Films, Media, Animationa and Media Arts. There is an extra a on Animation.--Jdsteakley (talk) 20:49, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
To 'rename' an article, we use a process called WP:MOVE. Please read about it before trying! Thanks,  Chzz  ►  16:45, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Images to Commons

Hi. I notice you copied a bunch of my images to Commons. At least I think that's what happened. I'm having a little trouble understanding how this works.
