Please link images

Hello Tom66!

Thank you for providing images to the Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to the Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on the Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. EugeneZelenko 15:03, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Sugestion for Image:Photomultiplier.svg

Hi Tom66

Image:Photomultiplier.svg is a nice illustration but there's a minor glitch. The rays from the objective (leftmost) lens should be shown converging on the photo-cathode (leftmost plane), not crossing.

Could I get any pickier? (-:

Thanks, Doug

Sorry about not replying. Anyway, first, please sign your talk (with ~~~~) so I can reply to you. I didn't really make the image myself, I traced a jpg original, so I'm not very educated in the subject. If you'd like to make a change open it in a vector editor (e.g. Inkscape), it's not too hard.

Thanks for doing this for me. It looks great. gren 07:56, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
