Zmiana nazwy plików

Niestety, nie ma takiej możliwości: trzeba załadować pod nową nazwą a pod starą wstawić {{Duplicate}}. Administratorowi jest o tyle łatwiej, że może usunąć (jak już tylko podmieni wszystkie wystąpienia... sprawa łatwa nie jest)

Re: poty vote

1. I think the best option is to add uselang=pl [1] which will force the message to be in the localized language.
2. Actually pretty difficult, because once a token is used, it is automatically changed internally and sent to you as a cookie. This makes it impossible for the software to find out whether you actually specified a wrong token or your token has already been used.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Mfloryan!

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.

Would your consider translating this SVG into Polish if you can spare the time? It is already in 6 languages. Thank you.

ikony ulic

Do przebiegów niektórych ulic potrzebne byłyby ikonki rozwidlenia w górę i w dół. Miłym udogodnieniem byłoby także podanie przy obrazie ikonki skrótu używanego w szablonie... Tzugaj|Tzugaj (talk) 22:05, 16 March 2017 (UTC)
