Thanks for uploading Image:La2-demis-imandra.png. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Category Orinoco River edit

I don't like the gallery on the Cuenca del Orinoco being included in the category Orinoco River. In Spanish, the article on the Cuenca del Orinoco (Orinoco Basin) is much better made than the one on the Orinoco River.

Bridges edit

Hi Mircea - when creating new categories, please check whether you have the right name in regards to "of" or "in". You created "Bridges of New Zealand" when there is already the correct "Bridges in New Zealand" cat. A good thing to do is always try if either already exists, and to check what other countries use in the corresponding topcat (i.e. if you look into "Bridges by country", you will see that IN is correct here).

Its a difficult subject, I admit, because there are no hard-and-fast rules for it. So we need to do some extra checking when we create new stuff. Cheers and happy editing! Ingolfson 09:43, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

thanks for correction my mistake. Mircea 08:57, 7 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

One-item categories edit

Hallo Mircea, categories containig one item only are nonsense, unless there is a hope, that more photos or maps fitting for the same category are existing.--Ulamm 00:27, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

ok, so, for the present "Canals in Poland" is better then "Canals" and "Poland". Mircea 08:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thank you very much for recategorizing image:Kanal Jagiellonski.gif. This was useful, indeed ((added Ulamm 14:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC))).Reply
  • "Cat:Canals in Poland" contains lot sof items.
  • Categories have the reason to find images with a similar theme. If you have only one photo of the Polish village of Golice, it is best categorized among category:Villages of Poland.
    • If somebody wants to write a general article about rural Poland, he can find his illustrations easier, if category:Villages of Poland contains rather images than subcategories.
    • If category:Villages of Poland contains a single-item-subcategory:Golice, it can contain the village street, or the church, or the graveyard, or the coat of arms. Therefore single-item-categories cause an evitable waste of time for people seeking a special type of images.
    • If somebody else has other photos of Golice, he can find your photo in that category as easy as he can find a subcategory. He can create the subcategory:Golice and fill it with his photos and your photo.--Ulamm 12:22, 20 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I'll jump in here and note that I disagree. Finding that image is going to be EASIER if it is sorted under Golice. Unless you do a search for the word "Golice", finding a specific image in a strongly populated cat is almost impossible unless you know the name anyway. And IF you do a search for the word "Golice", you will find it, even if it is the single image sitting in a cat three levels further down. Also creating categories early allows people sorting later images to place the media correctly, instead of someone having to resort them again, and again, and again...

Confusion betwxeen canal locks and sluices edit

I think that there is a confusion between sluices (water height regulation devices) and canal locks (devices that allow ships to travel to a river or canals with a level that is several meters lower of higher) as explained in the deifinition of sluices and canal locks. --Foroa 11:45, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

yes, I understand, you are right, this is confusion. I sort its at first according to country, but in Belgium was problem with redir from sluice to canal lock. Mircea 11:57, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
The deeper the categorisation goes, the more risks there is on confusion and the better we need to document the main categories. The redirect in the sluices in Belgium is there because someone tried to "uniformise" most canal locks in Belgium into sluices, whereas most pictuares concern canal locks and not sluices. --Foroa 13:37, 17 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Common interest? edit

Hi - we seem to have an interest in common! I've been working with aspects of the UK categories for a while now both a higher level & lower levels largely working on geographical aspects & over categorisation & "overpop" categories. I've been looking at "coasts" recently and see that Coasts of the United Kingdom is a sub of Geography of the United Kingdom (which is fine to me). However I also see that Beaches & Bays are in the Geography of the United Kingdom and I was wondering if they were not more properly sub categories of Coasts of the United Kingdom (indeed "Clifs" & "Headlands" too?)?

Any views or comments welcome - thanks & regards --Herby talk thyme 09:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yes :o), you can recategorize it. Mircea 09:31, 12 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've been asked my opinion on this by Herby, and I note that I have sorted this the same way (Bays as subcat of coasts) in Category:Coasts of New Zealand. I'll adapt the country category scheme if nobody sees an issue. Ingolfson 10:02, 12 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
That really is helpful thanks both & to Ingolfson - I'll use your schema on the UK - it looks very good to me. If I can help at all do let me know --Herby talk thyme 10:16, 12 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
On a similar subject - are you aware of this bot's possibilities? It is very useful for keeping an eye on specific categories & things being added so I just got this. Regards --Herby talk thyme 09:18, 13 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
yes, it is a good idea! You can contact this bot and explain it to its(him). Mircea (talk) 10:08, 13 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
The bot just does it anyway - you need to create your own page with categories that you want to watch (limit of 100). This is a better link but if you want help setting it up I'll try. --Herby talk thyme 10:24, 13 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. Mircea (talk) 10:26, 13 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi, do not put category Category:Mountains of Poland in categories you've made for peaks in Tatra Mts please. For example: Category:Kończysty Wierch, Category:Rakoň.

Tatry edit

Dzięki za uporządkowanie kategorii Tatry. To była prawdziwa stajnia Augiasza. Zrobiłeś kawał solidnej roboty tworząc kategorie w języku angielskim, likwidując kategorie nadrzędne i tworząc kategorie szczegółowe. Ostatnio skrzyknęliśmy się z ToSterem i też tam trochę zrobiliśmy porządku. Jeszcze nie wszystko jest skończone, no i trzeba na bieżąco będzie kontrolować i poprawiać nowe zdjęcia. Przyjęliśmy taką zasadę: główne kategorie i podkategorie w języku angielskim, szczegółowe kategorie i strony (szczyty, doliny, potoki, i tak dalej) w językach narodowych - to co na Słowacji po słowacku, to co w Polsce po polsku, to co na granicy - to zależy kto pierwszy wstawi, więc przeważnie jest po polsku. Należy też tworzyć do stron redirecty w językach: polskim, słowackim, czeskim i angielskim. Pozdrawiam. Selso (talk) 06:57, 17 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Category renames edit

Since a long time, I noticed that you do a great job here. If you want to do a lot of uncontested moves for naming harmonisation, such as the Wadi's, it might be less work for you and for us if you simply put your move requests in User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands under the form {{Move cat|Old name|New name}}. For moves, if the new category is not created, the move creates it with a copy of the contents of the old one. The moves allows us equally to avoid redirects which I delete anyway because redirects to compensate for "xxx of/in/from yyy" errors confuse the users anyway and cause the creation of even more erreneous "xxx of/in/from yyy" errors. Please note that I generally refuse/revert redirects from not empty categories: this is the role of the move requests or CFD's. Keep up the good work. --Foroa (talk) 18:18, 21 November 2008 (UTC)--Foroa (talk) 18:18, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Bay of Biscay edit

Hi Mircea, thanks for all the work in categories for bodies of water. I reset you latest change for the Bay of Biscay from "Bay" back to "Gulf". Despite its english name, it is a gulf, not a bay. Even the english wikipedia states "The Bay of Biscay is a gulf of the North Atlantic Ocean". The other languages also state gulf: Golfo de Vizcaya, Golf de Gasconha, Golfe de Gascogne, Golf von Biskaya.... So please keep the gulf categories. Regards, --Telim tor (talk) 06:41, 15 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

File:Cataract Gorge.jpg edit

File:Cataract Gorge.jpg doesn't have a waterfall in it. I know the technical name of what you're seeing but I just can't get my mind working ATM (Having a mental blank ATM but most likely come to my mind when I'm not trying to remember the name). If you look closely you can see it looks like a step (even with the water flowing) and is sort of like a miniature man-made weir (most likely used as a swimming hole in the Summer). I have seen them in creeks and streams before but they're not waterfalls. Bidgee (talk) 13:59, 29 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ponds by region edit

Zdravím. Kategorie typu Category:Ponds in the Czech Republic by region má, myslím, smysl zakládat teprve ve chvíli, kdy budou rybníky souběžně kategorizovány i podle nějakého jiného kritéria (třeba podle typu, účelu, povodí atd.). Pokud se k ničemu takovému neschyluje a ani ty nic takového nechystáš, tak vytváříš jen zbytečný mezistupeň v kategorizaci. --ŠJů (talk) 20:39, 5 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

schyluje se :o), resp se chystám, další možné podkategorie jsou ostrovy na rybnících, rybniční hráze, výpusti, ryby v rybnících, výlovy rybníků atd. jen jsem od někud potřeboval začít a každopádně je to běh na dlouhou trať. Mircea (talk) 07:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

In/of Saga edit

Hi Mircea, this in/of business is indeed a pain. The simple rule of thumb: natural things are of (plants of, rivers of), human made things are in (churches in, canals in). Of course, you have the mixed things. The waterfalls are wrong because someone managed to insert a rename of them. If in doubt, I check on the en:Wikipedia. But is remains troubles indeed. --Foroa (talk) 08:03, 20 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Stream/river edit

Máš nějaké kritérium, co je ještě "stream" a co už "river"? Asi se to dá odvozovat z názvu (ženský rod obvykle znamená řeku, mužský rod je obvykle zkrácenina plného názvu potoka), ale mezní případy (např. Loděnice alias Kačický potok neboli Kačák) by asi bylo dobré ponechat zařazené v obou kategoriích. --ŠJů (talk) 13:16, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

ano, nechť je Loděnice v obou, jinak jsem se pokusil začít diskusi zde (cs:Diskuse:Potok), ale zatím se nějak nezadařilo ji rozvinout. Mircea (talk) 14:38, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I just noted, that at the top of the category system something is wrong. The categorization of Category:Drainage divides only with Category:Drainage and the categorization of Category:Basins only with Category:Rivers seems wrong. Maybe the categories are redundant? --Martin H. (talk) 15:58, 2 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yes, there are problems, but solution isn't easy (drainage is "similar to"canalization or sewerage, watershed is drainage basin or drainage divide...), you can try it, but this will be great work. Mircea (talk) 12:36, 5 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Overcategorization edit

Zdravím. Díky za systematickou péči o vodní kategorie. Tentokrát mám drobnou připomínku.

V kategorii Huťský vodopád jsem umázl dvě z tebou přidaných tří kategorií: kategorie povodí je nadbytečná, pokud vodopády jsou již zařazeny pod kategorii potoka, kategorie okresu je nadbytečná, je-li vodopád zařazen do kategorie obce (něco jiného by bylo, kdyby v rámci kategorie okresu existovala nějaká tématická podkategorie). Kategorii Category:Bodies of water in Liberec Region jsem zatím nechal, třebaže zatím je taky vlastně duplicitní (také pod ni spadá celý Huťský potok). Snaž se prosím při systematických zásazích do kategorizace dbát na to, ať tam netvoříš zbytečné duplicity v kategorizaci (overcategorization). --ŠJů (talk) 17:14, 27 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

k té kategorii povodí, měl jsem na mysli že časem by mohla být kategorie Waterfalls of Elbe Basin a tak sem chtěl i vodopády řadit přimo do kategorie povodí, s tím okresem souhlas (některé okresy si časem třeba zaslouží kategorii Waterfalls in Nějaký District)Mircea (talk) 09:19, 28 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
Myslím, že kategorie podle povodí by měla fungovat především v logice věci, t. j. vodní plochu zařadit do kategorie vodního toku, na kterém leží nebo který z ní vytéká, ten pak do toho, do kterého ústí atd. Nemá smysl to ještě navíc přemosťovat kategoriemi typu "potoky podle povodí", "rybníky podle povodí", "vodopády podle povodí" atd. Objekty, které jsou relativně bodové (t. j. rybníky, vodopády atd.) pak je vhodné kategorizovat jednak podle správního členění (objekty v kraji, případně v okrese), možná i podle geomorfologického členění (vodopády v Krkonoších, štěrková jezera v Polabské nížině atd.) a pak samozřejmě co nejpřesněji do místa podle katastrální příslušnosti. --ŠJů (talk) 15:58, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Pokud se ti do toho bude chtít, myslím že už by to chtělo kategorii Lakes of the Czech Republic by region. Dokud neexistují kategorie jezer podle krajů, tak je nutné každé jezero řadit jednak mezi Lakes of the Czech Republic a pak ještě do "Bodies of water in ... Region", rozdělením jezer podle krajů by se tohle zdvojení odbouralo. --ŠJů (talk) 17:19, 27 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Provinces in Iran edit

Hi, acccording to the English spelling rules, generic terms in a proper name should not be with a capital, so province with lower case is OK (In en:wikipedia, use of lower and upper case is a mess).

Category:Geography of the Czech Republic by region edit

Zdravím. Kategorie Geography of the Czech Republic by region a její (zatím tři) podkategorie mi připadají jako zbytečná komplikace. Kategorie krajů jsou už samy ze své povahy geografické, takže nevidím žádný podstatný přínos v tom, když objekty a místa v kraji budou do kategorie kraje vkládány prostřednictvím mezikategorie "Geography of ... region". Opravdu myslíš, že je v kategoriích krajů tolik negeografického obsahu, že je potřeba ten geografický takhle vyčleňovat? Ono prakticky každé téma vymezené územím kraje je geografické, i kdyby to byla třeba národopisná nebo dopravní geografie, takže tématické vymezení takové kategorie je nejasné. --ŠJů (talk) 12:17, 3 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Zdravím. Jestliže existují geografické kategorie podle měst (viz.: Category:Geography by city) nevidím důvod proč by nemohli existovat podle krajů, které mají větší rozlohu než města. Další možné srovnání jsou např. švýcarské kantony, které jsou vesměs menší než naše kraje: Category:Geography of Switzerland by canton. Mircea (talk) 13:26, 3 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Jenže ve všech těchhle případech je to značně problematické použití. V těch švýcarských kantonech je to myšleno zhruba jako "přírodní geografie" (nejsou do toho řazeny dokonce ani města a vesnice), a ve většině těch ostatních případů (měst aj.) je to nahodilá sbírka témat, kterým by většinou bylo lépe přímo v nadřazené kategorii, ve které většinou zbývají témata, která jsou také nějak geografická (oni i třeba ti komunální politici a mapy výsledků voleb jsou předmětem politické geografie). Někde tam řadí jen geomorfologii a vodstvo, jinde zase i třeba ulice, někde mapy, ale copak geografie se nazabývá i budovami, sochami a čímkoliv jiným? Takže jde o zamyšlení, jestli vůbec tyhle podkategorie mají nějaký smysl a jestli v systému nedělají víc bordelu než užitku. --ŠJů (talk) 13:58, 3 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Podle mě toto členění určitě má smysl. Pořád ještě zůstává spousta oblastí, které nepatří do kategorie Geografie a lze je třídit podle geografických celků. Stačí se podívat na kategorii kteréhokoli státu, kde lze nalézt spoustu podkategorií, které nelze zařadit do podkategorie geografie ... (sport, kultura, vzdělání, dokumenty, videa, atd. atd.). Mircea (talk) 10:29, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Pokud rozumíš geografií jen přírodní geografii, tak od toho máme kategorie jako "Nature of Central Bohemian Region". Pokud tím myslíš mapy, tak máme "Maps of Central Bohemian Region". Ale pokud budeš vycházet z toho, že např. sportovní, sociální nebo kulturní geografie geografií není, zatímco sídelní nebo přírodní geografie je, tak bude hodně nahodilé, které další typy objektů tam vezmeš a které ne. Dokument týkající se kraje podle tebe geografický není, ale kategorie s fotakmi řeky protékající krajem geografická je? Kategorie s fotkami z kraje geografická je, ale kategorie s videosoubory z kraje geografická není? Já zatím pozoruji, že v tom logika není a jen to tříští dosavadní věcně uspořádanou kategorizaci. Kategorie se mají nazývat primárně podle svého tématu a nikoliv podle oboru, který se tím předmětem zabývá. Speciální lokální kategorie "geografie" by měla smysl snad jen pro fotky geografů, jejich náčiní nebo jejich pracoviště, ale pro objekty v krajině jsou geografické ze své podstaty už samy kategorie krajů. --ŠJů (talk) 15:05, 24 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
jde mi o to, aby to bylo pro všechny země stejné a ne aby ČR byla výjimkou. Nejlepším řešením by podle mě bylo to vyřešit přímo v nadkategorii, kde by se napsalo, co kam zařazovat. Nelíbí se mi když to bude u krajů/regionů v každé zemi jinak Mircea (talk) 07:15, 26 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
jako příklad jsem našel např. rozdělení mezi Nature a Geography Category:Nature of Bavaria a Category:Geography of Bavaria - což bych si obdobně představoval i pro české kraje. Mircea (talk) 09:47, 26 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Deleting interwikis edit

I have seen that you deleted many interwikis here. Apparently you leave only the links to Wikipedia with a category page about Carabobo. Please note that many other Wikipedias don't use the category pages that much. Therefore a link to the page with information such as [[ms:Carabobo]], [[nl:Carabobo]] or [[nn:Carabobo]] is useful because the user has a direct link to the page. I suggest you put them back. Regards, Wouter (talk) 08:38, 2 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
