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 05:47, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Olympus[edit]
Hi there, I'm pretty happy, for its size. It does good photos during day, at night, strong flash and good photos in short distance, very bad when it comes to more than 2 meters (12 feet), except if you turn the flash off and use a tripod or kind. Very good the antishaking. Regards, Gons (¿Digame?) 16:07, 17 November 2009 (UTC).

- Please follow directions; you can't just remove the deletion tag from the file description page. You are supposed to explain why you think the file should be kept on the talk page. I have already provided ample reasons why the photograph is a copyright infringement and a violation and posted them to the talk page. Imzadi 1979 → 03:17, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

The image is and was (already at upload time) under a ND-restricted license, which is not allowed on Commons, as it does not allow the creation of derivatives from the image. You may either try to get the photographer to lift this restriction or the image will be deleted. --Túrelio (talk) 19:06, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
