Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Bitte mehr Zurückhaltung bei originellen Namen

Hallo Eric, danke für deine Bilder zum Tag des Denkmals 2013. Bei der Namensgebung möchte ich dich bitten, weniger originell zu sein. Nichtssagende Filenamen wie File:Alt aber gut.JPG erschweren die Auffindbarkeit der Bilder. Du willst doch, dass deine Bilder gefunden werden. Verwende bitte Namen, die das Bild beschreiben und den großen Kontext herstellen (also etwa Stift Zwettl, Prälatenhof, door handle) und nicht deine Assoziationen beim Betrachten des Bildes. danke, weiter viel Spaß und Erfolg. lg --Herzi Pinki (talk) 12:18, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
