Hello, Olgabaird!

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:Shieldscharger.jpg

I've tagged this image as missing license information. While the object is in the public domain, the photograph (which seems to be from http://www.titusomega.com/Object%20Profile%20and%20Photos/Old%20profiles/Metalware/Frederick-Shields-charger.htm ) is not. I've been contacted through OTRS about this, and I hope that permission will be granted for the photograph. Anon126 (✉ ⚒) 19:21, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
