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.CategorizationBot (talk) 11:35, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Your uploads
[edit]Hi, can you please provide better sources? Making a photo of a newspaper or a photo of a photo does not mean that something is entirely your own work. You have to provide a reference to the newspaper and if the newspaper (or the photo used in it) is not free content you will not be allowed to upload any reproduction of the newspaper here. See Commons:First steps. --Martin H. (talk) 16:41, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
