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) 11:21, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Attis, was the photo not perhaps taken elsewhere? - as the species is rare or absent in the Kruger Park. JMK (talk) 15:08, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

I have used one of your photos
[edit]Hello Attis1979!
I have used a photo of Cephalophus zebra in my free software educational proyect "Animalandia" (http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org)
You can see directly in the follow link and clic over "Siguiente" ("Next") several times:
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/imagen.php?id=52098
If you wish (and I hope yes), you can send me (via fernando.lison@educa.madrid.org) some letters or/and a photo for your "contributor profile" in Animalandia:
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=Kisp%E1l+Attila
I want show to my students (and so everybody) that Animalandia is make for "real person", and I can tell them about "generosity", "share" and other similar words that we use very few at this time...
This is my "contributor profile" and others, for example:
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=Fernando%20Lis%F3n%20Mart%EDn
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=Carmen%20Jim%E9nez
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=David%20P%E9rez
http://animalandia.educa.madrid.org/autor.php?nombre=Steve%20Garvie%20%28Rainbirder%29
In the future, I use more of your photos, I sure!
Thank you for the licence and, of course, for your splendid photos!!
Regards!
