Reply

Regarding your query here: thanks for the thanks :-). Actually, there has recently been some discussion regarding this issue here. Generally we don't mind if you review images that you created, once you are a trusted user (make your request here) - although people have their own preference. Many users prefer to leave it up to others to avoid conflicts of interests. Ultimately, it's up to you - but if you only want to review your own images - I wouldn't recommend seeking trusted user status, others will get around to it soon enough --Pumpmeup 05:37, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Hdtcommons83!

Tip: Add categories to your files

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.
