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) 10:41, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello!
I have read above that you have received an email that could confirm the copyright status. Pleae visit COM:OTRS for more information. --High Contrast (talk) 20:22, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick response. The Paul Caviness image I recieve in an email from LTC Caviness and I have sent him the COM:OTRS email. The other images have been scanned by the unit and either sent to me on a disk or uploaded to a site on the .mil domain for me to download from. I can provide that link, but it is only going to work from someone on a computer on the .mil domain. I know of a couple of editors who may have that kind a access. User:Sadads may be able to reach the file. What if I had the unit upload the images to their Organizational Facebook site and then listed it as a source. Would that work?--Damon.cluck (talk) 20:52, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
