Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Ain92!

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.

общение с новичками

Добрый день,

я слежу за страницами участников конкурса Википедия любит Петербург - смотрю, не будет ли выставлений на удаление и прочих неприятностей. Сегодня я увидела Ваше общение с ними, и теперь несколько расстроена; дело в том, что все участники конкурса использовали специально подготовленный организаторами гаджет, который автоматически подставлял категорию, которую Вы сходили и предложили не использовать. 90% (а то и больше) участников конкурса - новички, они от Вас сейчас впервые услышали слово "категория", причём сразу в контексте того, что это не просто что-то неизвестное, но они еще и пользуются им неправильно. На мой взгляд, нехорошо грузить такими проблемами участников конкурса; можно попросить Вас как-либо исправить ситуацию? Не уверена в том, как - может, отозвать сообщения, может, описать более подробно, чего же Вы хотели, желательно, наверное, с отсылкой на то, что это случайное недоразумение, просьба, которая не является их заботой, но которую они при желании могут выполнить.

Дело-то ещё и в том, что конкурс кончился, и я не уверена, что участники будут впредь грузить фотографии вне его. Тем более если они не будут понимать вдруг появившиеся новые требования.

Надеюсь на ответ, и спасибо Вам заранее. Анастасия Львова^ru (ru-n, en-2) 13:47, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

• Я сам этим гаджетом пользуюсь, так что никого отговаривать не собирался. =) Вот такое пояснение вас устроит? Прошу прощения. Ain92 (talk) 17:56, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

  Спасибо Вам огромное за понимание! Я легко допускаю, что излишне перестраховываюсь в данном вопросе, но надеюсь, что это не будет Вам в тягость и Вы поймёте причины моего такого отношения :) Ещё раз спасибо. Анастасия Львова^ru (ru-n, en-2) 18:18, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

• Честное слово, совершенно не за что! Цитируя известную рекламу, "прекрасно понимаю". (= Кстати, заодно я сделал вот так. Ain92 (talk) 21:24, 1 October 2011 (UTC) P.S. А когда и в какой форме начнётся оценка изображений?

Automobiles/cars vs. trucks

Hi, please see Category:Trucks in snow :-) --:bdk: 20:09, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

• Hello, thanks. And you please see Category:Rail transport with snow. (= Ain92 (talk) 20:12, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
  • Well, I see two problems now. The first is I'm not sure about inclusion of your cat in the Category:Automobiles in snow becuase buses are not included. The second is the difference in "with snow" and "in snow". I think we should ask a native speaker. Ain92 (talk) 20:21, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

There's no problem :-)

Automobiles (=cars), bicycles, trucks, tractors and other types of land vehicles are all on the same sub-category level in Category:Land vehicles in snow. That's ok. In English buses commonly are not meant when one uses the term automobile (or car) – only in a very broad meaning, but then other "wheeled motor vehicles" are also included (automobile = self-propelled).

"XY in snow" is ok where XY is a type of vehicle (automobiles, buses, trucks etc.). "Rail transport with snow" is fine as well, because "rail transport in snow" would sound a bit … hmm, at least unusual. --:bdk: 20:49, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

• In Russian language we consider almost all automоtive wheeled vehicles except tractors, bycicles and bikes (for example, buses, trucks and sometimes even special-purposed trucks like graders) as automobiles. Concerning the rail transport, I meant images like File:60163 Tornado 7 Feb 2009 Tallington.jpg, where the train itself isn't covered with snow.--Ain92 (talk) 23:16, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Transparent background and Stub icons

Я благодарю за ваше внимание, которое уделили на мою деятельность и заметили, что не все получилось идеально. Да, у некоторых изображений в субкатегории Stub icons нет прозрачного фона, но это все таки первые попытки организовать кое-как категорию Transparent background, куда как в корзину вошло все что попало и что не нашло себе другого места - около тысячи файлов. И практически невозможно было найти что нужно. Это неплохая идея создать Category:Stub icons with transparent background, но я все еще сомневаюсь насколько важно это качество Transparency (прозрачность), чтобы делить иконки и по этому признаку - не получиться ли как-то затруднительнее для будущих пользователей. Буду наблюдать за этой категорией и может быть найду решение поудачнее. Надеюсь получать и другие комментарии и предложения с вашей стороны. --Gabriel VanHelsing (talk) 05:43, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

T-34

[1] - Вы уверены что етот танк именно Т34? На памятнике никакого названия не было, а я сам не разбераюс в типах танков. --Robert Niedźwiedzki (talk) 13:54, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

• Совершенно уверен, сравните хотя бы с File:Belarus-Minsk-Tank Monument.jpg. Хотя год выпуска не назову. Ain92 (talk) 15:43, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
• Можете быть уверены, это Т-34-85 (т.е. более поздняя модификация Т-34, с пушкой калибра 85 мм). Юкатан (talk) 02:28, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
  • Если бы вы обратили внимание на добавленную категорию, то поняли бы, что я имел в виду модификации Т-34-85. Понятно, что это не предсерийная с Д-5, но версия ли это 1944 года, 1945-го или вообще послевоенная, модернизировался ли танк в 1960-х, польского ли он выпуска или какого-то советского завода (у них тоже были свои особенности), я (как, наверное, и вы) сказать не могу. Ain92 (talk) 21:51, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
    • А что, по внешнему виду они так сильно отличаются, что нужна отдельная категория? Тридцатьчетвёрка - она и есть тридцатьчетвёрка (ИМХО). Юкатан (talk) 14:20, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
• Спасибо. Что касается польского или советского он выпуска, то лично я уверен что советского - етот танк -памятник поставлен ещо во время, когда Борне Сулиново было большой базой Советской Армии (с 1945 - 1992 там толко советские части стояли, польского войска там не было) и вероятно вся техника в ету базу шла из СССР. --Robert Niedźwiedzki (talk) 20:37, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Пазлы (ответ на мыло)

Если вам удастся привести мои свгшки в порядок, то я буду только рад. Я их делал на Adobe Illustrator CS3. Юкатан (talk) 02:24, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

• Хорошо, попробую завтра этим заняться. Ain92 (talk) 21:51, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

"Wikipedia loves Petersburg" contest results are summed up

On November, 1 the winners of the contest "Wiki Loves Monuments" were announced.

It was difficult to select the winners. More than 450 users participated in the contest, having uploaded more than 4400 photographs. The Organizing Committee thanks everybody who took part, tried their hands, and agreed to make their work available to the whole world. There is fascinating work ahead of Wikipedia users: To employ the images to illustrate the articles in Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia which is available in 270 languages.

Do not get upset if you have not won. Look into Wikipedia articles - you may soon find your work there, to help people to visualise the buildings you have taken photographs of. Besides, we will contact you to hand you in a souvenir to recognize your particiation. We hope you will accept this sign of our gratitude.

If you have a chance, you can visit the exhibition of photographs, which has been organized in Saint Petersburg and shows some of the photographs submitted to the contest.

We hope you will participate in the future competitions planned by Wikimedia RU and thank you for your contribution.

You can ask any questions about the contest by sending an e-mail to infowikimedia.ru.

Sincerely,
In the name of the Organizing Committee,
Lvova Anastasia.
