Hello, Discospinster!
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.

Autopatrol given

[edit]

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. INeverCry 00:02, 4 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks! discospinster (talk) 22:29, 4 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What?

[edit]

The images that you tagged me in that are nominated for deletion, they are cropped versions of images that have the information and approved by Wiki Commons so I'm confused? Why would you delete File:Sven-Erik Magnusson 2016 (cropped).jpg but not File:Sven-Erik Magnusson 2016.jpg? --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 20:11, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Boulevard IV Luminescence.jpg

[edit]

was given the image by the band for the wikipedia page. How do i correctly credit it to them?

--Joeleaux (talk) 16:44, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You can't use it in the Wikimedia Commons because that means it could then be used by anyone for any purpose. I suggest you upload it to Wikipedia (not Wikimedia Commons) and use a "fair use" reasoning (i.e. that it will only be used for that article to illustrate the subject of the article). It takes you through the process here. An example of it is here (Def Leppard Hysteria album cover). discospinster (talk) 16:49, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

David O’Doherty

[edit]

Csa!!! I do not have a link to my permission to use the David O’Doherty image because I obtained it via him sending me a private video. MuddleBear (talk) 00:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Then he would have to provide permission. discospinster (talk) 01:08, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You nominated this file for deletion as a copyright infringement. You gave a link to a much smaller copy of the image on another web site, which I have replaced with a link to a copy of the image on the same scale as that uploaded to Commons, as that is more likely to be the source used. If for any reason you disagree with my change please revert it. JBW (talk) 21:03, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Miley cyrus picture
