Hello, Ajsinclair!
Tip: Add categories to your files
Tip: Add categories to your files

Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.

Here's how:

1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:

2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.

[[Category:Category name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:

[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".

When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").

Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

All these above now have categories to some extent. <Ajsinclair (talk) 13:47, 19 August 2010 (UTC)>[reply]

File:Eanie_deans_cottage.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

If you want to argue against the deletion you must use this page Commons:Deletion requests/File:Graham Hills.jpg. People will not find you comment at the talk page. (I am quite sure you will need an OTRS-Ticket to keep the file.) Greetings Jahobr (talk) 14:56, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:3 Lamb.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

[Responding to the now-deleted question on the subject file page.]

On August 27, my colleague, User:Adrignola, wrote to Radoslav Petrovic to tell him that while Petrovic's e-mail indicated his intention to allow Commons to host the image, Petrovic did not specify which of the several permitted licenses he wanted to use. In the e-mail, Adrignola referred Petrovic to Commons:Choosing_a_license#Common_free_licenses to make a selection.

Therefore, in order for us to complete the acceptance of this image, Mr. Petrovic needs to respond to Adrignola's message and specify CC-BY or another of the permitted licenses.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 14:34, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.
