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 06:16, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi there TSRL. Could you confirm when this photo was taken? I wonder if it might be 1959 but I note that it says it was 12 September 1958. Could you confirm the date and add it to the appropriate category please. I assume it will either be Category:1958 Farnborough Airshow or Category:1958 Farnborough Airshow. Cheers. Adambro (talk) 18:51, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing out the typo: it was indeed 1959. I must have missed the categories for this one at least and will sort, though I'd not heard of the one you mention. As a newcomer to Commons, I've normally been putting things like Category:1950s aircraft, Category:Armstrong Whitworth aircraft, Category:Transport aircraft etc, i.e. aircraft not place. It's hard to know where to stop with categories, but if you think the Farnbro' label is useful I'll add it sometime. BTW, why do you type :Categories ...? The shots are building on my home gallery. Cheers,TSRL (talk) 19:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- To answer your question about the : in :Categories, it is used to link to a category instead of putting this site in the category. Now the reason I write you. Why you don´t use the deepest categories available? For example File:Buccaneer 62.jpg where you use the cats : 1960s aircraft, Blackburn aircraft, Carrier-based aircraft and Strike aircraft. Instead of these I just categorised the picture with the cat Blackburn Buccaneer. All Buccaneer are Blackburn aircrafts, carrier-based etc. so these cats have to added to the main cat Blackburn Buccaneer instead to every single picture.--D.W. (talk) 13:49, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tip. I'd not appreciated that many individual aircraft types had categories of their own, but I'll use them from now on when they have them. That will look neater and save typing. The next deepest level, the manufacturer e.g. Blackburn Aircraft is not much help: perhaps one should always create the type category, though lots of uploaders don't.TSRL (talk) 17:42, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- I guess another good reason for going this way is that the type category set gets improved. I'm about to add Carrier based to the Blackburn Aircraft category set. Actually the Buccaneer ws already quite well described but other aircraft e.g. the Blackburn Skua are not, at present.TSRL (talk) 17:54, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, some of the type categories could have some more categories describing their main features (you could also sort them into categories from the numbers of engines or color of the plane, put to do it perfectly is very hard ;-)) Categories are created just if needed, so when you already have a few picture to put them in there. Aside, on commons there is this photo, very similar to yours. Now we can also add the year of the picture instead of a range from 61 to 70, or did they show this refuelling also in other years?--D.W. (talk) 19:01, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
- Well, my pics of XN694 and XJ571 are certainly 1962, but AirBritain (just Google 0n XN694) shows two other photos of the same pair, one from 1962 and the other from 1961. Sea Vixens certainly did buddy-buddy in 1961: there's a mention in Peter Cooper's Farnbro' book but there is also another photo in the Flight SBAC 1961 edition (on line). This shows a different pair of aircraft, as far as I can tell from the image XJ808 and XJ802. There is no reason why they should have used the same pair on each day, of course, though for that reason I was a bit surprised to find the same pair performing in both years. Anyway, it seems that "Sea Vixens refuelling arp.jpg" (a much better shot than mine) could have been 1961 or '62. I don't know if they refuelled at later shows; once a routine has appeared a couple of times it may get missed out in reviews of later shows. Might be worth a look at the show eds of Flight for 1962, 1964 and 1968.TSRL (talk) 15:34, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
- After another look I think the Flight photo serials are probably XJ608 and XJ602, but the point is unchanged.TSRL (talk) 19:29, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

My suggestion with this image would be to upload the original and simply note in the description that wing in the foreground is part of a different aircraft. It's just when I first looked at the photo I was confused about what is was showing and I think it would be less confusing to me and probably others to have a wing of another aircraft as part of the shot because that can be expected when taking photos of subjects in confined spaces. Adambro (talk) 14:49, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- Followed your suggestion. Simple is often best. One day it will be calm enough for it to fly and I'll get a better shot.TSRL (talk) 17:10, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Red link categories
[edit]Hi, I have just been dealing with various red link categories on the images you have uploaded in the past few days. I'll be obliged if you can please avoid adding categories that don't exist, unless you are about to add them minutes later. In the category system, red links are definitely to be avoided, because they don't show up in the category trees, and they may conflict anyway with existing categories that often differ from categories and article names on en:WP. For example, here we have Caproni as manufacturer, below which is Caproni airplanes. Now that of course should be Caproni aircraft, but I for one am put off by the large number of sub-cats that need amending, so it remains an anomaly. MTIA, PeterWD (talk) 09:53, 5 May 2012 (UTC) OK.

TSLR,
You created category Category:Airbrakes and spoilers, apparently intended for airbrakes and spoilers in gliders only? There already exists Category:Air brakes (aircraft) and Category:Spoilers (aircraft wings), so perhaps a better way would be to create a new Category:Air brakes (gliders) as a subcat of both Category:Glider detail and Category:Air brakes (aircraft). Category for glider spoilers could be created in a similar way. MKFI (talk) 22:13, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
- I agree with the idea of a subcat. I'd prefer, though, to have just one, called say Category:Air brakes and spoilers (gliders). There are two main reasons for lumping them together. The first is that, if you go along with Martin Simon's definition of spoilers as upper surface, typically mid-chord flaps then rather few gliders have had them. Martin knows as much as most about gliders, having flown and redesigned them as well as understanding the aerodynamics of both full scale aircraft and low Re models. Second, there is not universal consistency about the distinction between spoilers and airbrakes. As a (rather obscure) example, the Merville SM.31 had "upper and lower surface spoilers with gap" according the The World's Sailplanes vol II, (1963) p.84 but "retractable air-brakes" according to Jane's All the World's Aircraft 1964/5. They are not claiming a different feature, just using a different categorisation; I'd be inclined to call them Schempp-Hirth airbrakes. Having two sub-categories would just lead to confusion and pedantry. Things may well be different for large, modern powered aircraft. Cheers, TSRL (talk) 09:11, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- Creating a single Category:Air brakes and spoilers (gliders) that would be a subcat of both Air brakes and Spoilers would work. You may want to remark on the above explanation on the category talk page. The current Category:Airbrakes and spoilers is not good however as the name gives no indication that it is intended for gliders. MKFI (talk) 17:30, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
- I'll move it to Category:Air brakes and spoilers (gliders) and see if I can do the sub-cat thing. Thanks,TSRL (talk) 20:39, 16 March 2014 (UTC) All done,TSRL (talk) 16:13, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

Picture ID query
[edit]Hello! Just a very quick question regarding your photos of the Sea Vixen display team (images File:Sea Vixen form 62.jpg and File:Vixen burst 62.jpg), please. How sure are you that these were taken at the 1962 Farnborough show? I only ask as, so far as I am aware, the Sea Vixen flying display that year was a pair that demonstrated air-to-air 'buddy' refuelling, not an aerobatic formation. The 'Fred's Five' team demonstrated the following year but, as the name implies, they were dominantly a five-up team, although I know there are other photos out there apparently showing them with six ships. Also, in the burst image those look more like FAW.2 spec Vixens, rather than the FAW.1 which would have been used in '62. I could be wrong, and the other image is a bit too fuzzy to tell either way, but that's my gut feeling. 'Simon's Sircus' team was a six-up FAW.2 team that flew at Farnborough in 1968, including both of the patterns shown in your photos. Is there any chance those images are from that show and not '62? Thanks! Pyrope (talk) 17:24, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
- Definitely 1962; that was the last time I went, since I stated at Uni the next September and my aircraft interests went into hibernation (apart from a Battle of Britain display in September 1963 at nearby Waterbeach) until retirement loomed. My photos at User:TSRL in WikiCommons record that trajectory and also show I have a better camera now. Back then, commonly available colour film had only just got fast enough for aerial photos. You might like to look in the Flight archives for Farnborough 1962; they probably either photographed or noted what the Sea Vixens did. Thanks for the enquiry,TSRL (talk) 18:19, 28 November 2017 (UTC) I've had a quick look and Fred's Five were there in '62!TSRL (talk) 18:29, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for the prompt response! Interesting stuff, and many thanks also for the link to the Flight article. Guess I got my years jumbled there somewhere. Pyrope (talk) 19:22, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
