Every time a free image is uploaded to Wikipedia, a kitten dies.

[edit]

Please, think of the kittens. Upload free images to Commons. It's FREE! And you'll save someone work later on.

You can't find nothing at all, if there was nothing there all along.

[edit]

You can only find what you are looking for.
