I noticed you've uploaded Image:VillaGuerrero.jpg and I thought I should turn your attention to a common error.
Please give some thought to writing a good description of uploaded images. This ensures that they can be used in more than one way. It also helps those that review and improve categories do a better job, which also ensures that images will get used in novel and interesting ways. Thanks, and happy editing! -- Bryan (talk to me) 20:16, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Image deletion warning Image:JerezMap.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this image, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. If the file is up for deletion because it has been superseded by a superior derivative of your work, consider the notion that although the file may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new file.
In all cases, please do not take the deletion request personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!

Images

[edit]

Hi. Your Image:USCommutePatterns2006.png and Image:USCommutePatterns2006(2).png are very interesting images. Do you have them in a non semi-log scale? To use a log scale on a percentage is, in general, not a great idea since all numbers are the same order of magnitude, plus in these cases, it takes what could be a straight line and introduces an artificial bend.--128.197.42.45 22:30, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It also makes LA look like it has half the mass transit usage of NYC and Phoenix like one quarter.--128.197.42.45 22:31, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tip: Categorizing images

Hello, Arturoramos!
Tip: Add categories to your files
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.

Typo in LA Metro Map

[edit]

Just a small point: in your wonderful map of present and planned metro lines in Los Angeles, there is a small typo in the station name "Wilshire/La Cienga". I think it should be La Cienega. Thanks for your great work and graphics! Sbretzke

Detroit?

[edit]

Hello: You created a wonderful graphic USCommutePatterns2006.png Thank you for that effort.

On it you list all of the 25 largest cities except Detroit. I think you just made a very understandable human error. Detroit is the 11th largest city in the United States and has a large commuter population, almost all of whom drive single occupancy cars.

Keep up the good work. Wikipedia needs more graphics like yours.
