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 05:40, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Puzzle Quest Galactrix.png. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:Image:Puzzle Quest Galactrix.png]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Second time. Please READ this box, request author agreement (develloper and/or publisher) and send it to OTRS. « Permission: All » Mean nothing. This game, like any others, is copyrighted, here by Infinite Interactive. If you work for Infinite Interactive and are allowed to release content, please use an official email adresse and sent an agreement to OTRS. ~ bayo or talk 11:55, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
- Please understand:
- Wikimedia Commons only allow free content (allow anybody to use, edit, in a commercial context every thing)
- if you are a player you CAN'T release a game screenshot into a free license.
- if you are the game develloper/publisher we MUST know it officially (with an official mail to OTRS).
- Thats the last time i revert you. If you can't explain this image status we need to delete this file. Thanks for understanding. ~ bayo or talk 09:46, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply and your help. ~ bayo or talk 12:59, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
- Please. Do not upload anymore this image. If you are a player you DONT have right to release this screenshot in a free license. If you are the game developer, we need agreement from an official email adress. Anyway you should talk to explain this image status. That's the warning. ~ bayo or talk 08:56, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
