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 05:54, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Categories
[edit]I have noticed that you have not included dates in the 2008-09 Australian region cyclone categories, please do so because the storm names will be used again.

MODIS Data
[edit]Hello HurricaneSpin I've noticed the flattened MODIS images you've been producing, and I was wondering where I can get the data to flatten these images from? I've got HEG, and the real-time HDF files from the MODIS Rapid Response System website have not been working because the program dosen't take pure HDF files, but HDF-EOS Files. I would appreciate the info so I can help out. Thanks :) P.S. If not the HEG program, which one are you using? Supportstorm (talk) 23:13, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
Katrina picture
[edit]I moved your cropped version to File:Hurricane Katrina August 28 2005 cropped.jpg. This is such a heavily used image that you should ask others permission to change it. Potapych (talk) 21:44, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
Re
[edit]Please stop adding lines into the images. The lines aren't even accurate, and is original research. --Earth100 (talk) 02:09, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi HurricaneSpin, is there evidence that Typhoonwikihelper 3 is a SP of Earth100 or somebody else? --Túrelio (talk) 20:33, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
