A few more possibilities
[edit]Hallo Dsualeh again! Meanwhile a colleague has started Category:Central Park, Kolkata (you have seen), where you can add a (short!) description or more categories (location in Kolkata?). Maybe an additional Commons-Gallery is better to create (if you click the red-link Central Park (Kolkata) and add the existing category to the new gallery, and a link to the wikipedia-pages en:Central Park (Kolkata)) – better because you can add links in the photo-descriptions to other Commons-pages (taxons/buildings/locations) (a park tour maybe?), and that Gallery can be linked to other wikipedias (include "{{Commons|Central Park (Kolkata)}}"
in a WP-page – use "Commonscat" if you want to link to a Commons-Category). If you use our "Search" with Central Park Kolkata, you can find more photos (and Photographers), or find and add a subcategory eventually. With our Search (e.g. "Jamun fruit") you can find Categories and taxon galleries like Syzygium cumini too, or even wikipedia pages in other languages (like de:Syzygium cumini where there is no photo! to add one?). Or (if you want and have the time to) contribute to the daily new categories like Category:Photographs taken on 2014-09-29... (in the last few months one main focus of my contributions to Commons). --LudwigSebastianMicheler (talk) 23:10, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
