Hello, Helga Steinreich!
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.

Bitte nicht überkategorisieren!

[edit]

Hallo Helga, überkategorisiere Deine Bilder bitte nicht. Beispiel File:Su-romanzesu-theater-2.jpg:

Würde man die Überkategorisierung so fortführen, wie Du es angefangen hast, müsste man auch Category:Regions of Italy, Category:Geography of Italy, Category:Italy, Category:Countries of Europe, Category:Geography of Europe, Category:Europe usw. hinzufügen. Du siehst sicher ein, das sowas keinen Sinn macht und Überkategorisierungen deshalb grundsätzlich vermieden werden müssen. Siehe auch Commons:Categories. Ansonsten würde ich mich über viele weitere schöne Bilder von Dir freuen. Gruß -- Ies (talk) 15:30, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo Ies, tut mir leid, so ganz hatte ich das noch nicht kapiert, aber mit Deinen Beispielen wird mir das klarer. Danke! Weiß ja nichtmal, ob und wie ich Dir hier antworten kann.
