First steps tutorial Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. Getting help More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump.

Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Hello, it'done, thanks. Cabrijavern (talk) 18:24, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, my mistake, I thought that I checked it correctly

The use of the Cat-a-Lot gadget isn't so simple

The category needs to be filled in the blank. The option is activated with <ENTER>.

Over-categorization

Commons:Categories#Over-categorization

Please, don't over-categorize

If genus 'Rosa' is in the category 'rosids' and 'rosids' are in the category 'angiosperms', then the genus 'Rosa' is automatically in the category 'angiosperms'

If category 'World War I officers of Switzerland' is in the category 'Military officers', then category 'World War I officers of Switzerland' is automatically in the category 'Military officers'

Thx --Chris.urs-o (talk) 15:56, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Note

Hello

(Thinking)

As I understand the Wikipedia projects

Commons, Wikidata, Wikispecies are service projects of the main Wikipedia projects:

English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian and Chinese

So the categorization should be useful

Category:Switzerland in World War I > Category:Switzerland in World War I (people) > Category:World War I officers of Switzerland

Category:Military people by country > Category:Military people of Switzerland > Category:World War I officers of Switzerland

Category:Switzerland in World War I (people) are mainly useless images

Category:World War I officers of Switzerland are potentially usefull images

Categories on officers are under 'Military people of Switzerland', because officers are longer in the Swiss Army than the time period 1914 to 1918

Regards --Chris.urs-o (talk) 08:09, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

P.S.: I created Category:Switzerland in World War I (localities)

Category:CH-BAR Collection First World War Switzerland should be permanent, and parent categories are not allowed (over-categorization)

'Category:CH-BAR Collection First World War Switzerland' and {{CH-BAR-picture}} are a pair

as 'Category:National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration' (NOAA) and {{PD-USGov-NOAA}} are one pair as well
