Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
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.CategorizationBot (talk) 10:42, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit]I see the deletion request has now been closed. You appear to have nominated the same file for deletion twice in November 2011 (not 2005). If there are two files that are the same, then what is the name of the other one? Two files can not have exactly the same name otherwise one would have over-written the other. Did you just want to delete the file, or is there some real problem that we need to fix. --Tony Wills (talk) 09:35, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Location....
[edit]Hi Hindutashravi, how did you add the location to the image you just uploaded, i. e. File:Area of Kashmir.png? --Arnd (talk) 06:13, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Arnd, I think that in the process of uploading, there are various stages and if the image being uploaded pertains to a map, then either at Release Rights or Describe stage, there is a column which specifically requests the uploader to fill in the geographical location co-ordinates! Hope this answers your query. Hindutashravi (talk) 08:27, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks Hindutashravi for the answer. Do you remember if it is a mandatory field? Would be nice if you could make screenshot when you again coming to such a stage.
- PS: I am asking so much in details because over the last months a lot of files appeared in this category because of erroneous locations and i wonder why this happens. Before almost no user added coordinates by hand but now they do but not in a correct way. --Arnd (talk) 09:12, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Haroon Janjua.jpg. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.
Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own). The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Haroon Janjua.jpg]] ) and the above demanded information in your request. |

Thanks for uploading File:Map of Aksai Chin in Ladakh depicting Shahidullah, the Hindu-tash Pass and the Kara Kash river in Kashmir.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you created this file yourself, then you must provide a valid copyright tag. For example, you can tag it with {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} to release it under the multi-license GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or you can tag it with {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. (See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of license tags that you can use.) If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there. Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you. |
