Bristol photos
[edit]Hi, please stop adding category:bristol to things if they've already been sorted into the subcategories. Eg the Bagheera one was in the St Augustine's Reach cat, and thus already in Bristol Docks, and thus further already in Bristol. Same reasoning for the others. -mattbuck (Talk) 19:23, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
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.BotMultichillT 06:03, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Re: Universes in Boston
[edit]I had read the thing about the state department on DYK, so I thought the easiest way to provide clarity would be to ask the uploader to provide evidence that he/she owns it. Hekerui (talk) 22:11, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Flag and coat of arms
[edit]Sorry, I didn't understand that you had taken the images directly from the law. Most people think that any realisation of a flag is in public domain, and they act accordingly, taking them from the internet. I thought you were talking about that.

Medway Queen
[edit]Thank you very much for adding the picture of the Medway Queen at her dedication last month (July 2013). I was not able to attend the event - I live too far away - so your picture is much appreciated.
