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 05:43, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

TinEye
[edit]You may use the TinEye Gadget in your Special:Preferences, which however i find less useful than the TinEye Browserplugin http://tineye.com/plugin which adds a useful "Search image on tineye" if you rightklick an image. Thanks for the info, but im using this tool already for some time ;) If you use it please pay attention to false positives. Sometimes we have unattributed/unsourced derivatives of Wiki files or incorrect transwikis from en.wikipedia found by TinEye. --Martin H. (talk) 01:30, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Can you make a house structure for the Philippine Senate and House of Representatives?
[edit]Can you please a house structure for the Philippine Senate and House of Representatives patterned after the United States Senate and House, the information are on the template called Template:Philippine political parties. Please we beg you Rizalninoynapoleon (talk) 07:52, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- en:Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/Image workshop is a good place to ask for this sort of thing. The French- and Japanese-language Wikipedias also have active wikigraphists. They will need the template link {{tl|Philippine political parties}} and further information such as the colours for each party and the name and shape of the legislative chamber. Of course, the image will need updating after future elections. You may be able to edit an SVG yourself using a text editor if the original author keeps its format simple.
