User:Colegota/Use of articles and categories

This is an attempt to clarify myself about the use of articles and categories in commons. But I hope it will useful as a ¿short? explanation and a guide or "howto" for others.

Of course, this is a draft and an open document. Please feel free to make comments and suggestions at the talk page.

I'm working mainly in "places" images. Because most of my images are locations and people from my travels around the World. I classify pictures for that proposes, but I think it can be extrapolated to every use of articles and categories.

Introduction edit

Images (sounds, videos...) are incorporated to Commons as a big bunch of files where others can take later. Among that thousand files, find the image we search for can be a hard deal if no facilities are given. So we proceed to classify images to make it easy.

There is two ways for classify images in Commons.
