There have been problems with image metadata caching recently. Whilst the root problem has been fixed (see Commons:Village pump for details) affected pages will need to be purged to make them show the images correctly. Please check the image description pages before removing apparently missing images from pages.

Welcome
The Wikimedia Commons is a project that provides a central repository for free images, music, sound & video clips and, possibly, texts and spoken texts, used in pages of any Wikimedia project. Unlike images uploaded on other projects, images on Commons can be embedded on pages of all Wikimedia projects. The Commons was launched on September 7, 2004. Currently it contains 103,929,842 collections. There were Template:NUMBEROFMEDIAFILES media files on Template:NUMBEROFMEDIAFILESTIME, excluding weather and market data. If you would like to participate actively in the project, read on below. To let other people upload photos or other files for you, you can use the Commons:File upload service or a special program. First steps
Please visit the Community portal for more info! If you want to quickly learn about uploading files and contributing, see our first steps help file. If you have any questions about the project, please read the FAQ or ask on the Village pump. You can also drop by at #commons.wikimedia on irc.freenode.net.
