Goodies, tips, and tricks

Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities.
You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads.
Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~.
To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg.
You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account.
There are several tools to upload files.
Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful.

Made a mistake?

Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it.
Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Hello, Mietchen!

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.

Re: Open Access resources as an ongoing donation to Commons edit

Mietchen, Sorry for the delay, in answering. Yes I can help with mass upload of images. However I will not be able to commit a large amount of time to it. If I have a spreadsheet of all the relevant data related to each file I can easily and quickly upload large amount of files with scripts like this. However I have my hands in too many projects at the moment to be able to create such spreadsheets of metadata. Do you think you would be able to create a spreadsheet with: file location, author, description, date, link to source page, commons categories to be used, etc. I can also help with creating license template, or more elaborate source template. --Jarekt (talk) 13:50, 11 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hallo Mietchen, bei dem Video habe ich die Trauerränder weggeschnitten. Wenn das nicht gefällt, setz einfach die Version zurück. Gruß, --Pristurus (talk) 14:27, 27 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Gute Idee - welches Tool haste dazu benutzt? -- Daniel Mietchen - WiR/OS (talk) 16:17, 27 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Per Avisynth -Skript:

FFVideoSource("C:\Downloads\journal.pone.0003141.s002.mov")
Crop(8, 72, -8, -58)

und das Skript dann via ffmpeg2theora codiert:

fmpeg2theora.exe "journal.pone.0003141.s002.avs" --videoquality 8

Dies kann man aber auch einfach ohne Avisynth gleich beim codieren machen:

fmpeg2theora.exe "journal.pone.0003141.s002.mov" --croptop 72 --cropbottom 58 --cropleft 8 --cropright 8 --videoquality 8

Thanks for uploading File:Thank you and Goodbye, scholarly journals.png. This media is missing permission information. A source is given, but there is no proof that the author or copyright holder agreed to license the file under the given license. Please provide a link to an appropriate webpage with license information, or ask the author or copyright holder to send an email with copy of a written permission to VRT (permissions-commons@wikimedia.org). You may still be required to go through this procedure even if you are the author yourself; please see Commons:But it's my own work! for more details. After you emailed permission, you may replace the {{No permission since}} tag with {{subst:PP}} on file description page. Alternatively, you may click on "Challenge speedy deletion" below the tag if you wish to provide an argument why evidence of permission is not necessary in this case.

Please see this page for more information on how to confirm permission, or if you would like to understand why we ask for permission when uploading work that is not your own, or work which has been previously published (regardless of whether it is your own).

The file probably has been deleted. If you sent a permission, try to send it again after 14 days. Do not re-upload. When the VRT-member processes your mail, the file can be undeleted. Additionally you can request undeletion here, providing a link to the File-page on Commons where it was uploaded ([[:File:Thank you and Goodbye, scholarly journals.png]]) and the above demanded information in your request.
