Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Larskallin!

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.

File:SollefteåPrästgård.jpg

Detta är inte prästgården, det är själva kyrkobyggnaden, bakom klockstapeln. Prästgården ligger strax bredvid. Några invändningar mot att jag kategoriserar om den, ändrar i mallen och ber om att få filen omdöpt, då filnamnet nu kan vara missledande? Det är dock fortfarande ett byggnadsminne, så den biten var helt rätt. -- Y-näsmannen (talk) 12:16, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

SAmma sak gäller File:SollefteåPrästgårdEntre.jpg, begär byte av den också. -- Y-näsmannen (talk) 09:41, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

September är nästan slut: missa inte Wiki Loves Monuments 2019!

Hej,

Du får det här meddelandet då du tidigare bidragit med bilder till den svenska deltävlingen av Wiki Loves Monuments, och jag hoppas att du vill vara med i år också. Kategorierna är som vanligt byggnadsminnen, fornminnen, K-märkta fartyg och arbetslivsmuseer, och du är välkommen att bidra med bilder hela september. Om du varit ute i världen och rest kan du även se om resorna sammanfaller med övriga internationella deltävlingar, och i så fall vara med och tävla även där.

Välkommen till tävlingen, och lycka till! /Axel Pettersson (WMSE) (talk) 15:32, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Hej!

(For information in English, see Wiki Loves Monuments 2020 in Sweden or other participating countries.)

Du får det här meddelandet då du tidigare har deltagit i de svenska deltävlingarna av Wiki Loves Monuments eller Wiki Loves Earth! För någon vecka sedan blev det klart vem som tog hem förstapriset i Wiki Loves Earth 2020 – stort grattis till Brydand100 och hans fotografi av Röttlefallet! Alla vinnare kan du se här – tack alla deltagare för fina bidrag!

Den 1 september inleds 2020 års svenska deltävling av Wiki Loves Monuments, där det skulle vara väldigt roligt om du ville vara med och delta! Målet med Wiki Loves Monuments är att fotografera svenska kulturarvsmonument. De kategorier som ingår är byggnadsminnen, fornminnen, K-märkta fartyg och arbetslivsmuseer – och du är välkommen att bidra med bilder hela september.

Välkommen till tävlingen, och lycka till! /Eric Luth (WMSE) (talk) 14:26, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
