AGF[edit]
Your comments are rather incivil. Claiming that I would need to AGF while saying my comments are patently absurd without actually reading them is a mark of such.
The argument is clear: this is a derivative as proven by a larger photo that is uncropped, and it would legally have to be marked as such. The photo was not released properly, as it claims that it was the original. Thus, the releasing statement is fraudulent. 75.105.13.17 15:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'm sorry - but neither I nor most others regard your original interpretation of the CC 2.5 licence. I'm sorry if you feel offended that people disagree with you, but that i really cannot help. But perhaps you should try to get legal advice on this, instead of going on an interpretation, that most other people regard as incorrect? --KimDabelsteinPetersen (talk) 16:43, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
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 17:29, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
