How to reuse Commons media files

Looking for media files on Commons

百度 相较于曾经依靠行政审批过滤不合格企业的老办法，在商事制度等一系列改革后，中国市场监管已经呈现出通过提供信息公示、反垄断等服务，来护航公平竞争、优化营商环境的新风格。

In order to find certain media files on Wikimedia Commons, you can search an entire category, or see if a gallery page for your subject exists. Commons has fewer pages than Wikipedia has articles, but does have a number of gallery pages, such as for Bicycle, Lake, many National Parks, plant species, and animals, that can make searching or linking easier. You can add a link from a Wikimedia Commons gallery page to a Wikipedia article where the collection would be more appropriate than a single media file.

If you want to reuse Wikimedia Commons media files outside Wikimedia projects, you are welcome to do so. However, keep some very important points in mind:

• Unlike traditional media repositories, Wikimedia Commons is free. Everyone is allowed to copy, use and modify any files here freely for any purpose including commercial ones as long as the source and the authors are credited and, in many cases, as long as you release your copies/improvements under the same freedom to others.

• The Wikimedia Commons database itself and the texts in it are licensed under the CC-BY-SA and the GNU Free Documentation License. The license conditions of each individual media file can be found on their description pages.

• However, be aware that we cannot guarantee the correctness of the information given on each file. So please verify on your own the license conditions given on the media file you want to use.

• More detailed information on usage conditions can be found at Commons:Licensing.

Embedding Commons media in Wikimedia projects

In general, to embed a Wikimedia Commons media file in Wikipedia or another Wikimedia wiki, just include it in the same way as if it were to be stored locally there.^{[clarification needed]} To include an image in a page, use for example a link in the form (standard usage shown):

[[Image:file.jpg|thumb|descriptive text]]

To include a sound, you can choose between two possibilities if the {{Audio}} template is present in your local wiki (otherwise you can use the first method):

[[Media:file.ogg|descriptive text]]

{{Audio|Filename-without-namespace|descriptive text}}

Further details can be found at the media help page in Meta-wiki, at Wikipedia image markup page, at Wikipedia picture tutorial and at Commons:Video#Video usage.

Embedding Commons media in third-party projects

Wikimedia Commons files can be embedded in third-party MediaWiki installs by using these MediaWiki settings. This feature is known as InstantCommons.

Download and use

You are always welcome to download files you are interested in for reuse, as long as you follow the license conditions provided alongside the files. This means you should credit the author as described on the file's page and if possible link to the file on Wikimedia Commons.
