Username change
[edit]Dear Cool Cat, I required some help;
- I want to change my username from User:Mustafa Akalp to User:Makalp, is it possible to make it?
- I suspected that User:Hetoum I is a sock(IP nr; 72.79.13.226-You will see this nr in one of the history of images below), maybe User:Aivazovsky or any other.
- I dont know much about copyright rules, but something is seems wrong to me;
- Please check;Special:Contributions/Hetoum_I to see uploading images;
- I send message to ask source URL/? here and here.
- He responded here with the explanation; He also made personal attack claiming I am ignorant to Turkey, threatened me with reprisal for my scans of postcards and accused me of being POV. I want to say keep this in mind.
- Later he took actions on images, Like as;
- He changed all copwright info from one to other.Possibly all info are false and user knows the rules about it.
- Please check;Special:Contributions/Hetoum_I to see uploading images;
For your attention. Regards. Mustafa Akalp 11:24, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

- Hi,
- To request a username change you should request it a Commons:Changing username where a bureaucrat can process it. Renaming usernames is beyond my access level.
- Hetoum I contribution on the English wikipedia is beyond the scope of my administrative privileges here at commons. However I have nominated all his uploads here for deletion since they demonstrate a lack of license/copyright related info.

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 19:19, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
