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.BotMultichillT (talk) 05:38, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi there, I noticed that the title and description of this photo might be wrong since the crest in the left part of the window is that of 234 Squadron. Would you mind me renaming the file? De728631 (talk) 00:41, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
Categorisation
[edit]Hi, could you please make a little effort about the categories when you're uploading (thank you for the nice photo by the way)? It's very clearly written on the Churches in England page: Please try to avoid to overwhelm Category:Churches in England, i.e. every English county has a church-related category, e.g. Category:Churches in Bedfordshire etc.. Here, even the name of the church was not correctly written. If someone hadn't put the photo on a wp page, I wouldn't have been able to find where it was taken. "Churches in England" and "Gloucestershire" were clearly bad categories that couldn't halp anybody to find your picture. Thank you and have a nice day. --Birdie (talk) 08:36, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
