Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Jackverr!

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.

All done thnx--Jackverr (talk) 17:16, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

There some problem here in the wizard, because I put the category in the right place when I used it to import the two last files. Anyway the files are categorized now.--Jackverr (talk) 20:28, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

File:MarcMorialNatUrbanLeage.jpg

Hi. Regarding category addition to File:MarcMorialNatUrbanLeage.jpg, what is the relevence to Alpha Phi Alpha of this particular event Morial appeared at? Thanks, wondering. Cheers, Infrogmation (talk) 00:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

           Hello, 
           sorry for not having told you that I added a category to this photo.
It's not because of the event, but of the person : Marc Morial is an Alpha Phi Alpha member.

I am translating this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Phi_Alpha into french language
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Phi_Alpha)
 
and I thought it was a good idea to put in this category all the photos I used from The Commons.
 
I hope it doesn't bother you. Regards.

--Jackverr (talk) 10:15, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I see, thanks. In this type of case, the Alpha Phi Alpha category should be added to Category:Marc Morial, not to an individual image. I'll take care of this one for you. Cheers, Infrogmation (talk) 14:16, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I'll know it for the next time.Thank you. --Jackverr (talk) 16:33, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
