Welcome to Wikimedia Commons, Gerson monhof!

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.

I just want to let you know that I reverted the last edit that you made to File:Johanneskirche Wuppertal.JPG, there is no need to add (c) YEAR YOUR NAME to the Licensing header and by adding the word Copyright to the {{GFDL}} tag you broke its functionality. You had everything right before making those changes. Commons can be a bit confusing so if you have any question please read some of the help pages referenced in the Welcome tag above. The Help Desk is a great place to ask questions. And feel free to ask me directly.

⇒ (Sorry für meine schlechte Deutsch, das ist die automatische Übersetzung)
Ich möchte Sie wissen lassen, dass ich wieder die letzte Änderung, die Sie an File:Johanneskirche Wuppertal.JPG, ist es nicht erforderlich, um (c) YEAR YOUR NAME, um die Kopf-und Lizenzierung durch Hinzufügen des Wortes Das Copyright für die {{GFDL}} tag Sie brach ihre Funktionalität. Sie haben alles richtig, bevor Sie diese Änderungen. Commons ist ein wenig verwirrend, wenn Sie Fragen haben wenden Sie sich bitte einige der Hilfe-Seiten, auf die in der Welcome-Tag vor. Die Help Desk ist ein großartiger Ort, um Fragen zu stellen. Und sich zu fragen, mir direkt.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Gerson monhof!

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.
