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 05:38, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Charolais photos
[edit]Hello Ben23, thanks for uploading these nice photos :-)
Three questions:
- Could you please add information, where the photos were made, at least in which country?
- Have you made the photos yourself? I'm asking, because you used "photo personelle" and a generic "self" template, but not your user name within the author field.
- In case you are not the author of those photos, have you already sent permissions to OTRS per e-mail? (the OTRS templates you used currently don't have date stamps). In case you actually are the author, you could/should remove the ORTS template as they are not needed in such cases.
Thanks --:bdk: 18:48, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
