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.BotMultichillT 06:06, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi there! I partialy agree with the name changing but "LSB" it is not a meaningless name. It is the portuguese code of Lisbon! However, if the change is going to happen if should be renamed to File:Crest of Lisboa.png as in the wrong svg crest (File:Crest of Lisboa.svg), using the native name Lisboa. Kind Regards! -- Dioluisf (talk) 12:24, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry, that "meaningless name" came from a template. --Papuass (talk) 12:47, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Dioluisf: should we rename the wrong file to "Crest of Lisboa (unofficial).svg" or something? --Papuass (talk) 12:51, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Papuass: Yes! Actually that kinda solve the problem of wrong wiki usage of that crest. Greetings from Portugal! -- Dioluisf (talk) 12:55, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- I'll try to vectorize the official version. It's better to have a svg alternative to the png I guess. Dioluisf (talk) 12:57, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Papuass: The same happened with c:File:Flag of Lisboa.svg and c:File:Lisboa.PNG, the first one was based on the wrong crest. Maybe rename them would be fine as well! -- Dioluisf (talk) 14:39, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
