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.CategorizationBot (talk) 18:53, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

thanks for the waratah pics
[edit]much appreciated. btw, what program did you use to blur out the faces of people? just interested thats all. thanks 211.30.121.12 04:32, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
REPLY: It's nothing really they were taken quite rushed, the photos are there just to show a glimpse of inside the train. To blur the poeple's faces, I used this program called "paint.net" www.paint.net/ once installed copy and paste the photo in or edit a copy of the photo (if you want to retain the original, or to prevent saving a permanent mistake), zoom into the faces using the round selection tool, drag it where you want to 'blur' it. Once selected, there's alot of distorting tools under the effects menu. In my photos I used the pixelating tool. Hope this helps and do enjoy the pictures, oh and if possible please do contribute with better photos, short video, sound clips if possible. :D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wykymania (talk • contribs) 04:47, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags
[edit]
—LX (talk, contribs) 09:51, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
- Hello, I was instructed by that page to provide a reason on the images' discussion page and only THEN to remove the deletion tags. I only followed instructions... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wykymania (talk • contribs) 06:26, 12. July 2011
- No, you only added "To contrast with existing older timetables featured on the article page" and "To show and contrast between possible versions of pre-existing timetable images present and what CityRail passenger documentation look like" to the talk pages. That does not explain why the files would not be copyright violations and in no way justifies removing the {{Copyvio}} tags.
- Please respect my request to keep discussions where they started, as this makes conversations easier to follow. I am watching this page, so I will see responses made here. —LX (talk, contribs) 12:19, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

File source is not properly indicated: File:Revesby Railway Station1.jpg
[edit]This media was probably deleted. |
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Revesby Railway Station1.jpg, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file (
[[:File:Revesby Railway Station1.jpg]] ).
If you created the content yourself, enter 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.
