Tip: Categorizing images
edit
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.BotMultichillT (talk) 05:56, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
editHello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Karelflach. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Karelflach~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

File:Peter in Holland.jpg
edit2 punten:
1) De naam van dit bestand dekt niet het onderwerp, het onderwerp is "Peter I in Deptford in 1698 Daniel MACLIES" . Peter de Grote is dus in Engeland, NA zijn bezoek aan Holland!
Er wordt vaak ontkend dat Peter in Engeland ook 'handwerk' gedaan zou hebben, maar dat wordt door dit schilderij weerlegd, en er zijn ook andere bronnen die melden dat hij "regelmatig door de achterpoort van zijn tuin ging naar de arbeiders en samen met hen het werk verrichtte".
Hier dus Peter aan 't zagen en Koning Willem III ( van Engeland!) toekijkend.
2) Ik bezit een betere afbeelding dan deze: DanielMaclise-25Jan1806–25Apr1870-Peter at Deptford-1857.jpg -- 1488 x 921 px, 1,03 Mb.
Hoe kan dit gecorrigeerd worden? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karelflach (talk • contribs) 15:31, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
Upload of files failed??
editI created a page in the Dutch Wikipedia named "Sjtandart" and uploaded some 193 photographs for wich I arranged suitable copyright-rights for use in Wikipedia ( owner contract signed bij Vladimir Martus on 30 May 2021. A special Catagory was created named :"Construction of Shtandart ( ship, 1999)" and all those photographs were uploaded into it shortly after May 30.
I checked the content of that Category TODAY and found that there were only 119 pictures there !! Exactly the number that is used in the page for "Sjtandart" Are the other files deleted by a bot, because they were aparently not needed or not used? I cannot find the missing anywhere, do I have to reload them when I want to extend the lemma with more, already copyrighted images? please explain Karelflach (talk) 14:16, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
