Orkney
Hi Ardfern, thanks a lot for categorizing the Orkney Islands and trying to find a systematic arrangement. But I've got one question: I guess the name auf the Unitary Authority is just "Orkney", isn't it? So wouldn't it be better to have a category "Orkney" for the administrative stuff (Flags, CoAs ... etc.) and a category "Islands of Orkney" for the islands instead of "Orkney Islands by island"? By the way, how shall we traet islands which belong to the Unitary Authority Orkney but geographically not to the Orkney Islands, e.g. Sule Skerry? Many thanks. Regards, --Telim tor (talk) 15:08, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Leeds images
Well done on your contributions to the Leeds category and thank you for reorganising it, 400 images on the main page was a little too much really. Cheers, Mtaylor848 (talk) 19:26, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for recategorising so many of my pictures. The categories system here on Commons is something that I'm only just beginning to understand, so your work is much appreciated! NotFromUtrecht (talk) 10:39, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Ulster Museum
Hello Ardfern, I saw the images you made from two sculptures outside the Ulster Museum on 23.October last. The Image titles are File:Ulster Museum (08) and File:Ulster Museum (10). Do you have any idea who the sculptors are? I should be delighted to know their names. Greetings,--Gerardus (talk) 12:42, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Tip: Categorizing images
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) 10:37, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

November 2006 in Northern Ireland
Hi. Sorry about Category:November 2006 in Northern Ireland. The clock on my camera sucks so the EXIF is wrong. Those pictures were actually taken in May 2007. I'll move them all via COM:CDC. Wknight94 talk 21:12, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
File:Citybus 2565.JPG
Hi! Should File:Citybus 2565.JPG actually be in Category:July 2008 in Northern Ireland? I ask because I took it at the Alton bus rally in Hampshire, England! Arriva436talk/contribs 20:56, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Northern Ireland
Hi! I undid some of your edits [1]. Northern Ireland is not a country. It should be categorized in "Category:Xxx by country" via "Category:Xxx in the United Kingdom". --MGA73 (talk) 21:36, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
