Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, XanaG!

Tip: Add categories to your files

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.

Diffraction pattern

Hello XanaG

Thanks a lot for your powder x-ray diagram File:Si powder diffraction pattern.png! Two questions:

• Might it be possible to add another version including lattice indices? (*)
• Do you have an x-ray diagram of Si02 glass? Or even a diagram of a mixture of crystalline and amorphous SiO2?

(*) I assume the first strong reflection is (111), followed by (220) and (311). There are two amorphous inner rings. Do you know its origin?

2012 Picture of the Year: A pair of European Bee-eaters in Ariège, France.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 7 March 2014. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2013/Introduction/en Click here to learn more and vote »]

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Ayuda con verificación de identidad

Hola Xana, acudo a ti, entre otros bibliotecarios de la Wikipedia en Español, porque necesito la ayuda de algún bibliotecario. Quizá porque no hemos coincido, así que nadie podrá decir que somos amigos, enemigos o lo que sea. Como puedes ver en meta, por segunda vez, Bernard ha vuelto a inventarse un títere mío. He pedido allí que simplemente algún checkuser externo haga una verificación en todos los proyectos en los que trabajo, aunque tengo pocas esperanzas de conseguirlo. Tal verificación no podrá más que ser negativa, dado que Atón/Stomag y yo no tenemos nada que ver.

Ya estoy cansado de que este individuo mienta una y otra vez y esta vez no puedo dejarlo pasar. Por lo que manifiesta, Sgomag/Atón es un usuario legítimo (por supuesto que no soy yo, pero además ha respondido y se muestra contrariado por el asunto) y estaría dispuesto a que una persona de confianza, de forma confidencial, verificase las identidades de ambos. A mí se me ocurre que puedo enviarte un escaneado de mi DNI e indicarte, vía mi dirección de correo de Wikipedia, cuando y cómo voy a modificar mi página de Linked-In, por poner un ejemplo. Como he dicho en meta, estoy cansado de este asunto. Más todavía de que se vayan inventando, a cada paso, alguna excusa para expulsar a Mar del Sur. Si tú puedes ser esa persona, hablaré con Atón para que se someta al mismo proceso (que no deja de ser humillante: tener que dar información privada solo para desmentir patrañas como estas). Gracias y un saludo --Discasto _talk 18:17, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

mejores fotos

Paso a saludar y a decirte que he subido de nuevo la mayoría de las fotos aéreas de Smart Drone, entre otras la de Riello. Poco a poco subiré otras mías, como esta DPC (talk) 19:18, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
