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 05:36, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi Alexmadon, somehow you put the template ACClicense as an edit comment instead for the license.
If you transfere the template information, please insert also the number of the radical!
Example: {{ACClicense|疋|seal|seal|s01582||103}}

Tutorial for ACC project
[edit]Hallo, Alexmadon. Thank you very much for your effort on ACC project. I think you would like to spend some time on reading Tutorial for ACC project that is likely helping you on the image preparation before uploading to Commons. Feel free to hold question on my talk page or Yug's. We hope you will enjoy in this project. Chanueting (talk) 13:32, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
- Hello Alexmadon,
- Any idea if the uploading script in Commons:Ancient Chinese characters:Linux tutorial would still work ? Yug (talk) 14:20, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- It returns an error. I will forward users to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Upload#Example_1:_Upload_a_local_file_directly Yug (talk) 14:40, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
