Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Josephus37!

First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Please use sub-categories

---

When categorising files, please avoid placing them into several categories that are directly linked within the same tree (e.g. a parent category and a child category – like Category:United Kingdom and Category:London), to prevent over-categorization of files and over-population of categories. Usually, only the most specific category should be used. See Commons:Categories for more details. Thank you.

Hello, Josephus37 : ) Thanks for sharing your photographs!
As above, per official policy com:overcat: Please do not upload files with categories such as Category:Kanagawa prefecture, or Category:Japan anymore, and let someone else take care again and again, but please upload with only specific categories, such as Category:Aircraft at Naval Air Facility Atsugi.
While I am not personally interested in military, I have checked categories, just for examples, such as:

• e.g. on File:Kawasaki P-1, Atsugi Naval Air Facility.jpg:[1], categories:
  • -Japan > -Kanagawa prefecture > -(Ayase, Kanagawa, not in the city of:Atsugi, Kanagawa) > -Atsugi Naval Air Facility=redirect:-Naval Air Facility Atsugi > +Aircraft at Naval Air Facility Atsugi
  • -Japan Self-Defense Forces > -Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force > -Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force aviation > (Aircraft of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force) > +Kawasaki P-1

(I have noticed that Category:Kanagawa prefecture itself is currently also being com:overcat error, as well as other prefectures of Japan. I am on the way solving them with prefecture-templates)

For further instructions, please see also com:cat#Categorization tips in the official policy.
Thank you for your time. Sincerely--Tokorokoko (talk) 03:27, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

North American F-86F Sabre (02-7960) at Kawaguchiko Motor Museum, Yamanashi prefecture, Japan.jpg

7962? Are you sure? Reads like 7980 to me. --Gereon K. (talk) 13:59, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

Yes, according to [2] it has in fact been painted with a different F-86's livery for display purposes. This is actually 02-7962 dressed up to look like a Blue Impulse aerobatic team aircraft; the real 02-7960 is on display inside the JASDF Air Park at Hamamatsu AB, Shizuoka Prefecture--Josephus37 (talk) 23:29, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

Kawasaki T-4

Hi, there is no reason to blank this page. The gallery page is allowed to exist and this one is in line with the guidelines. Jcb (talk) 12:48, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello. The reason I blanked the page is because searches done in Wikipedia commons bring up that page, rather than the category page. My thinking is that it is better that searches go to a page with all of the relevant images, instead of an extra page with four random images.--Josephus37 (talk) 12:57, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

If you disagree with the system, you may try to change the system. But you will not achieve that by sabotage of individual pages. Jcb (talk) 13:05, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
