Hello, Omnibus!
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.

File:U of Virginia text logo.svg

[edit]

I appreciate your efforts to improve the logo, but your latest version is a different color. Mine was untouched from an official source, so I just find it a little odd that yours came out different. Any ideas? -Andrew c (talk) 21:01, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On closer examination, there is something wonky with your file. It is twice as large as mine, and it appears you have 3 copies of the same shape on top of each other, with a .05 opacity. -Andrew c (talk) 21:10, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ha. That's just great. If you have a code editor (like notepad or anything else), the easiest way to change the color, IMO, would be to simply edit the XML directly. Find all instances of #f47836, and replace with #ff7003. I'd be fine going with what is listed in the guidelines. The document might have been prepared with pantone colors, but was converted to CMYK sometime down the line, and with me also processing the file, the conversion itself may have shifted the colors a little as well. I guess I should go through all my latest uploads and double check the approved web colors. So what do you want to do? Shall we wait, or go ahead and replace with #FF7003? Do you want to do the honors, or shall I? Thanks for bringing this to my attention (and I guess I should have been more careful with all my files from the get go. I know my UCLA logo uses the approved colors, but because of that, it looks weird IMO. Less saturated). -Andrew c (talk) 22:09, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Looks ok to me. I went to the image page, opened up the image, then clicked "view source", and the color was still ff7003. -Andrew c (talk) 23:06, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
