Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.BotMultichillT 06:13, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

- I have tagged this file because it was stated as "own work" and I found the statement dubious (maybe because it is a downsampled version with no meta-data or because of your history as a contributor). In any case, try not to take it personally and please don't ignore this message, contact me instead if you want to discuss the issue. Eusebius (talk) 08:42, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- From what I understand it is not correct to state you as the author, but maybe you don't want to make the author's name public? Can you confirm you are the only copyright holder of the picture (i.e. the author is not alive and you are the only heir)? --Eusebius (talk) 09:04, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Hallo Morein,
in der Beschreibung werden 4 Namen genannt, das Bild zeigt aber nur 3 Personen. --Túrelio (talk) 09:27, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, bei der größeren Version (die kleinere dürfte als Duplikat gelöscht werden) habe ich die Angaben ergänzt. Damit ergibt sich nun die Frage, ob nicht Hannes Huss der Photograph war, da er ja nicht im Bild ist. Könntest du mal herausfinden, ob Hannes Huss noch lebt oder ob seine Nachfahren eruierbar sind? Sie (konkret: der/die Erbe/n) müssten dir, sofern er die Aufnahme gemacht hat, nämlich eine schriftliche Erlaubnis erteilen. Eine Muster-Erlaubnis gibt es hier: Commons:Emailvorlagen (Text: Einverständniserklärung). --Túrelio (talk) 10:23, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
