Report a page or a photo

Something on the Commons that should not be there?

A place, a route, a region text, a rider name, a message or a photo: each can be reported from where you see it, with no account. This page says where the Report link is, and can take you there from a link.

Paste a Commons link

Paste the address of the thing, as the share button or your address bar shows it. We open the right report form for it.

Where the Report link is
  • A place on the map

    Open it on the map. The Report link is at the foot of its panel. Points that come straight from OpenStreetMap have no link: their words are not ours.

  • A route

    Open it on the map from the Routes layer. The Report link is at the foot of its panel.

  • A region description

    At the foot of the region page.

  • A rider profile

    At the foot of their public profile.

  • A message

    Next to a message you received, in your messages.

  • A photo

    Under the photo: "This photo shows me, report it". A photo reported for showing a person is hidden at once, before a curator has looked.

What happens next

If you leave an address, you get a confirmation with a reference at once. When a curator has made a decision about your report, you'll be informed of it, with the reason.

A person decides, every time. The grounds are the rules published in our terms. Read the rules here.

If the thing you reported has an author and the report is upheld, they are told what was restricted and why. They have the right to contest the decision.
