Sometimes disputes (disagreements) arise between users and then dispute resolution is necessary.

Basic dispute resolution

[edit]
  • Talk to the user directly. Use talk pages, be civil, polite and assume good faith if possible.
  • Consider asking other users for advice (not intervention) on how to handle the dispute.
  • Try to find creative solutions or compromises that can satisfy everyone. Make sure you understand Commons' policies and guidelines yourself, and consider whether the other person may be right.
