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:
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.

Hi, I'm sorry, but I had to delete this file. As you may have noticed, it was not working properly. The reason was, you were trying to display a bitmap file, which was only available on your hard drive. If you want to create a SVG based on a bitmap, you need to vectorize it, you cannot simply import the bitmap into it. –Tryphon☂18:10, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Roberto, sounds ok, I have to apologize for beeing a bit harsh with my "no permission" request, I first did not considder the posibility that Perseus is a software. So please apologize and continiue your good work :) --Martin H. (talk) 12:15, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Hi,we spoke about aeronwy, then I saw your interest in astronomy and trolleybuses! Fascinating - and wiki probably not the place to discuss - but my wife and I both have separate childhood memories of trolleybuses (in 1950s and 1960s) in different areas of UK. Images remain strong - something different and 'modern' (even then) about trolleybuses.Tony in Devon (talk) 20:06, 4 December 2009 (UTC) knapp.tony[at]btinternet.com[reply]
Ciao Roberto, perdonami se ti disturbo ma avrei una grande cortesia da chiederti. Ho richiesto al sito ufficiale di Tying Tiffany (che è una musicista italiana) un'immagine dell'epoca del debutto di lei. E sono stati estremamente gentili non solo perché me l'hanno inviata quasi subito (è questa qui), ma anche perché il fotografo del loro entourage l'ha rilasciata sotto licenza Creative Commons. Però mi hanno anche chiesto di avvertirli nel caso in cui ci fossero problemi, e adesso mi sento un po' il responsabile generale dell'efficienza di Creative Commons :-)
Ora: siccome di solito sono abituato a caricare immagini mie, e questa è la prima volta che faccio una cosa del genere, non so esattamente come funzioni e quali siano i tempi d'attesa. Ed è per questo che mi sono rivolto direttamente a te: non è che potresti gentilmente controllare se l'autorizzazione è arrivata e se è tutto regolare? Il mittente dovrebbe essere info[chiocciola]tyingtiffany[punto]com, il titolo dell'e-mail dovrebbe essere Open-source Ticket Request, e il fotografo dovrebbe chiamarsi Leonardo Fiorino.
Ti ringrazio infinitamente per l'aiuto, e attendo tue notizie! Un Cordiale Saluto, Ulisse (aka Cyberuly (talk) 08:41, 9 July 2010 (UTC)).[reply]
Perfetto! Ancora una volta ti ringrazio per l'aiuto, e per la rapidità!! Ho aggiunto all'immagine il template adatto e il codice che mi hai dato (e nell'oggetto della modifica ho annotato che sei stato tu a verificare il permesso, perché nelle istruzioni c'è scritto che dovrebbe essere esclusivamente un volontario OTRS ad aggiungere tale codice). Spero di aver fatto tutto correttamente! Un Saluto, e di nuovo grazie, Cyberuly (talk) 12:20, 9 July 2010 (UTC).[reply]
Ciao Roberto! Mi rivolgo a te perché avrei da chiederti una cortesia analoga ad una effettuata qualche mese fa (e che è quella qui sopra :-). Ho richiesto al sito ufficiale della musicista italiana Tying Tiffany una foto di lei relativamente recente e scattata all'estero (che mi servirebbe per la Wikipedia in inglese) e mi hanno mandato tramite e-mail questa qui. Io l'ho caricata su Commons con le indicazioni che mi hanno fornito loro, solo che adesso mancherebbe da verificare l'autorizzazione OTRS per l'impiego dell'immagine: potresti gentilmente controllare se è arrivata la relativa e-mail? Mi hanno detto che l'hanno spedita stamani. Il mittente dovrebbe essere info[chiocciola]tyingtiffany[punto]com, il titolo dell'e-mail dovrebbe essere Open-source Ticket Request, e l'autore dovrebbe essere un tale DJ Wildhoney.
Nel caso in cui ci dovessero essere problemi ti prego di avvertirmi! Ancora una volta grazie infinite per l'aiuto, Ulisse (aka Cyberuly (talk) 13:31, 4 March 2011 (UTC)).[reply]
Roberto! Ti rinnovo i miei più sentiti ringraziamenti per il tuo preziosissimo aiuto! Un cordiale saluto, e buon lavoro, Ulisse (aka Cyberuly (talk) 17:31, 7 March 2011 (UTC)).[reply]

Hi Roberto Mura, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:
Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all ocurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move & Replace-tab.
Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.
Hola, somos unos alumnos de la escuela de cine de madrid, nos gustaria saber si podriamos utilizar una fotografia del cielo estrellado que usted ha subido a esta pagina web para nuestro cortometraje.
espero su respuesta pronto. gracias
un saludo

The Wikimedia Foundation is asking for your feedback in a survey about your experience with Wikimedia Commons and Wikimedia. The purpose of this survey is to learn how well the Foundation is supporting your work on wiki and how we can change or improve things in the future. The opinions you share will directly affect the current and future work of the Wikimedia Foundation.

A couple of weeks ago, we invited you to take the Community Insights Survey. It is the Wikimedia Foundation’s annual survey of our global communities. We want to learn how well we support your work on wiki. We are 10% towards our goal for participation. If you have not already taken the survey, you can help us reach our goal! Your voice matters to us.
There are only a few weeks left to take the Community Insights Survey! We are 30% towards our goal for participation. If you have not already taken the survey, you can help us reach our goal!
With this poll, the Wikimedia Foundation gathers feedback on how well we support your work on wiki. It only takes 15-25 minutes to complete, and it has a direct impact on the support we provide.
A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.
Possible acceptable uses of this ability:
To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.
The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:36, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your Southern Celestial Hemisphere has its right ascension "flipped". It should count ascending from 0 h counter-clock-wise with respect to how the stars are shown. For example, the constellation Orion is near Right Ascension 6 h but on the southern celestial hemisphere, the constellation's bottom half is on Right Ascension 18 h.
