I've seen people edit/crop in images which are in the public domain, and the new version comes up on the file history. How do you do that? Do you have to re-upload it in a special way?

Yes. At the bottom of the "File history" section you'll find an "Upload a new version of this file" link. That will replace the current version of the image by the new one. Huon (talk) 21:10, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I know there are essentially two kinds of images uploaded onto Wiki – ones in the public domain and copyrighted ones. Are you allowed to re-use copyrighted ones on a page other than the one they were originally intended or crop them in? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by The X-Files Investigator (talk • contribs)

This is called Fair use; please, read the original file page for specific conditions on each image. It can be both yes and no.

If you'd like someone to check, please, link to the image in question. Thank you.

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
