Hello, KimvdLinde!

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.

Updaten von einer Ihrer Statistiken

Hallo KimvdLinde, ich hätte eine kleine Bitte, die Überschrift verrät ja bereits welcher Art. Unzwar handelt es sich um Ihre Statistik zur Population der Kakapos unter folgendem Link: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakapo in der Kategorie "Bestandsentwicklung seit 1986". Ich würde mich über eine Antwort freuen. MfG FLA5HXD

Ok, Thanks for the answer, but do you still have the exact numbers of the graph from before 1986 and between 1986 and 1991? I want to create an updatet version.

• I do not have the data anymore. I did find it somewhere on the internet, so you can look for that. 2603:301C:1100:3D00:9D0F:4899:86E8:C13E 21:21, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
