Hello, Adiel lo~commonswiki!
 
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.

Comments   Comment An attractive view. Unfortunately there is considerable chromatic aberration at full resolution. Do you have a RAW version? Canon DPP might get rid of the CA. --Iotatau 16:42, 18 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
  Comment Sorry, the image was shot in Jpeg. Adiel lo 15:46, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
I have changed my mind, the CA is tolerable. (Let's see if my promotion is challenged...) Adding the geocode would be helpful. --Iotatau 21:57, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
