That chinese picture
One way of getting help is to place here and ask for someone either to tell you what to do, or, if yiou do not read Chinese, to read the details and do the job.

I assume you are talking about http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/华兴会 and the picture http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:华兴会主要领导人.jpg

Giving those links when asking for help is essential. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 13:20, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

helpme Hi, I want to move the picture http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:华兴会主要领导人.jpg from this page http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/华兴会 to Commons. Being on Commons I could use the same pic for my article on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huaxinghui. I read Chinese and the copyright says, that the picture is more than 100 years old and therefore it is free of copyright restriction. The picture is candidate for moving to Commons already. Can anybody move it, please? I tried it several times with commonshelper but it never worked (I'm not experienced either).--Colacao (talk) 14:50, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Commons helper has issues with non-ASCII text (From the page: "ATTENTION: For technical reasons, most non-ASCII characters in filenames will be "ASCIIfied". Some asian characters will break altogether. Fix is on the to-do list.") My advice would be to just upload it at commons under the same name with the same description and tag the original for deletion. --Closedmouth (talk) 14:55, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I uploaded the file manually to this address http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:华兴会主要领导人.jpg. How do I tag the original for deletion? --Colacao (talk) 12:19, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
 * ✅ :) --Closedmouth (talk) 13:25, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
