This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Five senses.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Picture collection must collect from local picture from Commons, please upload first every picture to Commons and then collect it from those. Please take a look at File:Collage Rome.jpg as an example how to do it. See Commons:Collages for details. Motopark (talk) 06:09, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Motopark,

If you cared to take a look at the summary for the picture "Five senses.jpg" it clearly says that this is my Own work work and I am the author of this picture. I have also clearly presented the licensing information that is provided as required on the picture page. With regard to the requirement of making collages as you just prescribed, refer me to the Wikicommons prescription that this is absolutely necessary! Otherwise please stop making false statements and falsely flagging clearly annotated pictures or I will report you. --AllanPH (talk) 22:02, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but it's indeed standing practise that you have to provide the exact source for every single image in a collage/montage. You have to keep in mind that around 10 percent of all uploads are claimed to be own work by the uploader, when in fact they are not. This may sound strange for a honest uploader/creator, but regrettably that's the reality we are facing 24 hours per day and 365 days per year. But apart from the provenicence aspect, it is also helpful to have a montage connected to the single images, if someone who sees the montage, but is interested only in one of the source-images.

Actually we have a specific template to list severeal source-images: {{Derived from|Example.jpg|Beispiel.png|Sample.svg}}. See File:Béjaïa (Algérie).jpg and File:2009 year montage.PNG as examples how other users have listed multiple source without using this template. --Túrelio (talk) 07:42, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thanks for outlining the reasons. I will upload each photo separately and will then make a collage of it.
