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) 10:49, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

Violation of your copyright
[edit]Hey, just a heads up: your image, File:GCVO star.jpg had two derived work made from it, File:RVO-Star.jpg and File:RVO-Star (KCVO).jpg.
Unfortunately, the person that did this both failed to credit you and relicensed your image from creative commons to public domain.
I've opened a village pump thread on this at Commons:Village_pump#File:RVO-Star.jpg_and_the_.28somewhat_more_modified_File:RVO-Star_.28KCVO.29.jpg
