Hello, I'm Sbb1413 from Hooghly district, West Bengal, India. I am a categorizer, uploader, graphic designer, and photographer in Wikimedia Commons. If you have any problems with my contributions to Commons, please leave me a note at User talk:Sbb1413 and I will try my best to fix any problems. However, I won't recommend using templates to warn me; instead, try using your own words.
Interests
[edit]My primary interests in Commons include, but are not limited to, Cities, Culture, Transport, Space exploration Cartography, Languages, People, etc. I focus mostly on India, especially West Bengal. I have also started focusing on the United States, especially urban areas.
Role
[edit]As mentioned, I am a categorizer, uploader, graphic designer, and photographer in Commons. On one hand, I upload free and necessary images for all versions of Wikipedia, which can be my work or someone else's work. On the other hand, I request to delete suspicious images (copyvio, out of scope, etc.). I also categorize free images into appropriate categories per COM:CAT.
Most of my works can be found at Files created by Sbb1413 and are labelled with the template {{Sbb1413}}.
Photography
[edit]I love photography. I have travelled to numerous places within India and taken photographs of them. However, due to workload and privacy, I cannot upload many of them. Instead, I have focused on categorising existing images.

Terminology disputes
