Please upload freely licensed files to Wikimedia Commons
Hello, and thank you for contributing files to Wikipedia by uploading freely licensed files to Wikipedia. While Wikipedia has the technical ability to store freely licensed files, the proper place to upload them is Wikimedia Commons. Uploading to Commons has several benefits, most prominent among them is that files at Commons can be used not just on this project, English Wikipedia, but on dozens of other projects in dozens of other languages.

Thank you for your consideration,
