Hello, Stiffer!
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.

Hi, this picture is identical with

http://images.nachrichten.at/media/image_1156443334.jpg

up to a copyright mark ("copyright by APA = Austrian Press Agency"). Are you really the original author? If yes: Did you sell it to the press agency without having to transfer the rights? Thank you. --80.129.77.242 00:02, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm the original author of this painting. The APA (Austrian Press Agency) wrongly copyrighted as their work. But the APA is just an association not a designer's office. No, I neither didn't get paid for it nor I never transfered the copyright status. I'm actually prepairing filing a lawsuit for this violation against APA.
So please help undelete the warning. I'm not familiar with Wikicommons. Thanks. --Stiffer 23:20, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
