Hello, Sundar1!

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.

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

Fehler beim uploaden von Bildern edit

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi Sundar Ich schreib dir mal hier auf deiner Diskussionseite (und du kannst mir auch hier antworten.) Ich weiss nicht genau was diesen Fehler verursacht. Ich würde dir vorschlagen, den commonist zum hochladen von Bildern nehmen. Den gibt es hier zum runterladen. Das Programm ist ein Java Programm und funktioniert hervorragend zum hoch laden von Bildern und es spart sehr viel Zeit da man nicht immer alles neu eintippen muss. Ausserdem kann man einen ganzen Haufen Bilder auf einmal hochladen. Falls du Schwierigkeiten mit dem Programm hast kann ich dir gerne helfen.

Bigger versions edit

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Hallo Sundar1, you nominated some of your pictures for deletion because a bigger version exists - could you please mention the new file name in the deletion request? Just edit the deletion request subpage.

And, very important, next time please just use the "upload a new version" link on the old file page to upload the bigger version. That saves a lot of work. :-) Cheers --Saibo (Δ ∇) 12:05, 4 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

The file was lost due to an server bug. Recovering is very expensive or even impossible. Please reupload this image if the source is still accessible to you. Yours sincerely McZusatz (talk) 13:52, 4 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
