Are you new to Wikimedia Commons? If so, then [[Commons:Welcome|Welcome]]! Check out [[Commons:Project scope|what we're all about]] (and [[Commons:What Commons is not|what we are ''not'']]), or just start [[Special:Search|searching]] for images and other media files. You can find collections of similar files grouped [[:Category:Topics|by topic]], or [[:Category:Categories|by almost any other characteristic]] you can think of. You can even [[Commons:First steps|start contributing to the project]] in important ways, regardless of your [[:Category:Users by ability|abilities]] or [[:Category:Users by interest|interests]], and no matter [[:Category:Users by location|where you live]] or [[:Category:Users by language|what language you speak]]. All information about Commons itself is available [[:Category:Commons-en|in English]], and most of it is available [[:Category:Commons by language|in other languages]], as well.
