I've just discoverd that as I used the italian page to upload the image it is visible in http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immagine:Immagine-004.jpg But there is written:
''Questo file č ora disponibile su Wikimedia Commons con un nome differente: tavolabao''
But if you go to the link to 'tavolabao' you get: "No file by this name exists."
Thanks, Nino

Hi all!
I've written a new page for the swahili version: http://sw.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bao. I wanted to put the images in the Commons pages as suggested, so I started by putting the first image immagine-004.jpg. I succeeded to uploading the image but I haven't understood how to link it in the page I've written.
I've read the guide but I wasted my time: I failed! So I decided to upload the images in the page itself.
Can someone help me?
Thanks a lot, Nino
Hi Nino, it seems you haven't uploaded the image to commons, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Immagine-004.jpg is empty. You've only uploaded the image locally on sw.wikipedia. However, the image description lacks pretty much every requirement, such as author, source, date and license under which the image is available. The license must be a free one.
To put an image from commons in an article is just exactly the same as putting a locally uploaded one: [[Image:nameoftheimage.ext|<parameters>]].

Hi Nino, on the Italian Wikipedia left side bar there are two buttons: "Carica un file" and "Carica su Commons". The first one uploads the file on the Italian Wikipedia, the second one on Commons. So, if you click on that one, provided that you're logged on Commons, just follow the instructions and uploading should be straightforward.
Basically: from the Italian Wikipedia: click on "Carica su Commons" the page http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload/it opens I think "È interamente opera mia" http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uselang=itownwork applies - therefore click on that link (or another one if more appropriate) Fill in the tempalte in the "Dettagli del file" box, select a license, same as in other projects more or less That should be it.
The template {{NowCommons}} on it.wikipedia is used to tell an administrator that the same image is available on commons, but won't put that image on commons alone.
BTW - I suppose you're Italian, we can continue the discussion in Italian if you want (maybe off-list?)

Does this cause much newbie confusion? It sounds like a useful idea for en:wp (which ideally should only have non-free images uploaded directly to it). I'm wondering what issues show up.

It's very frustating: I spent a lot of time to understand what I should have to do (isn't there a more simple, a step-by-step guide?) navigating in english and italian pages and the result was a very chaos!
Ciao, Nino
