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) 05:45, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Verschiebung
[edit]Hallo Devilsanddust, ich habe mir erlaubt, die Datei Kirche Pockau mit Spitze nach File:Kirche Pockau.jpg zu verschieben. Eine Kirche ohne Spitze ist mir nach intensiven Recherchen in Pockau nicht begegnet :-) gruss Rauenstein (talk) 08:22, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
- Mir ist als hätte ich seinerzeit den Namen als subtile Kritik an Kirchenfotos ohne oder mit angeschnittenen Spitzen verwendet. Deine Verschiebung ist mir selbstverständlich recht :) --Devilsanddust (talk) 10:32, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
