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.CategorizationBot (talk) 12:37, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Dear friends from Wikimedia
may you, please, explain me way my file violated the copyright when on wikimedia are zillions and zillions of files (screenshots) from Google Earth and they don't violate it.
Martin Sluka | Msluka
- Because files on Wikimedia Commons must be free to reuse by anyone, anywhere, anytime for any purpose including money making purposes and modifications. See Commons:Project scope#Required licensing terms as well as Commons:Licensing. Google Earth content is not free for such purposes, thats written in their terms of service. Terms that you agreed too when using the software. And I see no reason why you argue that it would be a good thing to deliberately breach this contract between you, as a user, and google. And that it would be a great thing to trash Wikipedias idea of freedom with stolen content.
- I doubt that there are "zillions" of screenshots from Google Earth here. Normaly they got deleted on sight, maybe a few hundred survived. --Martin H. (talk) 14:37, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
