Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Midnight bird!

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.

TUSC

Non ne ho idea... O chiedi a Magnus Manske se riesce a recuperati quella vecchia (dubito) o rifai la procedura per l'account TUSC.--Trixt (talk) 22:27, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Da una breve ricerca in Commons ho trovato che l'unico modo è chiedere a Magnus di cancellarti il precedente account. Vai nella sua talk e usa questa sintassi: Hi Magnus. I seem to have lost my TUSC password. Could you nuke my account so I can resubscribe? Thanks in advance. Spero abbia tempo di fartelo. Ciao--Trixt (talk) 22:13, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

Attribuzione

No, non sei obbligato a citare l'autore se questi ha espressiamente chiesto di non farlo. Sei sempre obbligato se lo ha chiesto, altrimenti no. Molte opere famose ad esempio sono di autori anonimi (cioè che hanno deciso di restare anonimi, non che sono ignoti). Metti {{Anonymous}} nel campo autore.

File:USS Forrestal (CV-59), porto di Napoli, estate del 1975.jpg

Ciao. Recentemente è sorto un problema con la licenza {{FAL}} (vedi qui): per fartela breve, pare che un file sotto FAL obblighi a pubblicare il documento in cui è incluso con sempre con la FAL; è chiaro che, essendo i testi dei progetti Wikimedia sotto CC-BY-SA, non è più possibile usare la FAL (e solo la la FAL) per i file di Commons. Ora, la discussione è appena iniziata e sembra una bolla di sapone, e non capisco come mai DarwIn sia partito in tromba a cambiare i tag di copyright così, se nza dir niente. Sinceramente non so cosa dire; tra l'altro se tu, come detentore del copyright, fossi stato informato del problema, avresti potuto aggiungere la {{Cc-by-sa-3.0}} e morta lì, ha poco senso mettere il PD-Italy per salvare la fotografia. Ora provo a rollbackare la sua modifica e scrivere nella talk del file; tu eventualmente, se non è un problema, cambia {{FAL}} con {{Self|FAL|cc-by-sa-3.0}}, così la foto è sicuramente a posto. Boh, è che a volte, per la smania di salvare le immagini, qualcuno agisce a rullo compressore, quindi penso comunque a fin di bene...--Trixt (talk) 20:35, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Aggiornamento: dopo aver fatto quattro chiacchiere con DarwIn ho capito il problema. Praticamente, l'UploadWizard, il sistema con cui recentemente vengono caricati i file e da cui sei passato tu per caricare i due file segnalati qui sopra, ha un problema con la FAL: sostanzialmente è ingannevole, perché (si pensa) ti induce a credere che sia una licenza che vieti l'uso commerciale dei file: invece non è così, è del tutto analoga alla licenza libera CC-BY-SA-3.0 che consente l'uso commerciale. Ecco perché DarwIn ha cambiato licenza, perché credeva tu pensassi che la FAL fosse una licenza che vieta l'uso commerciale. Quindi adesso, come segnalato qui sopra, i file sono considerati "senza licenza": per favore, se intendi pubblicare le foto su Commons consentendo l'uso commerciale, usa una licenza libera come la {{Cc-by-sa-3.0}}, del tutto analoga alla FAL, altrimenti, lasciali così che verranno cancellati. Grazie per la pazienza :)--Trixt (talk) 21:00, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Se si desidera, è possibile restituire la licenza FAL, ma è necessario prendere coscienza di che hai capito che permette il riutilizzo commerciale, così come le licenze CC-BY-SA.-- Darwin ^Ahoy! 21:07, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Thank you very much for licensing the photos. I just didn't want you to do something you didn't want to do, such as licensing them with FAL thinking it was a non-commercial licence. You may write to me in Italian, if you want, I understand it fairly well, though I'm not able to write it without the help of a translator. Ciao, i grazie mille, -- Darwin ^Ahoy! 23:23, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

.tif

No, ma è noto che i .tif e .tiff hanno problemi nella visualizzazione con alcuni browser, essendo tipi di file destinati più all'archiviazione che alla visualizzazione, e non andrebbero caricati (sarebbe meglio convertirlo in .png). Ciao--Trixt (talk) 21:24, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

AERI

Ihh, che figur'e'mmmm... Qui ha pure taroccato male, perché ha preso una foto fatta da terra (questa) e ci ha piazzato un aereo fotografato dall'alto. Se fosse volo capovolto non ci dovrebbe battere il sole, se fosse una foto dall'alto si dovrebbe vedere il suolo attraverso le nuvole. Comunque c'è qualcosa che non capisco ancora: c'è anche un certo AirComplete che ha caricato sospetti tarocchi. Si tratta dello stesso utente? Comunque, io posso solo cambiare descrizione. Dal punto di vista di Commons non ha commesso alcuna "infrazione", perché comunque le foto sono sue (a meno non abbia usato uno sfondo non suo, nel qual caso lo cancello per violazione di copyright). -- SERGIO ^{(aka the Blackcat)} 16:32, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. The top 30 overall and the most popular image in each category have continued to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 2 will end on 7 March 2014. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2013/Introduction/en Click here to learn more and vote »]

No, il problema è che la fotografia è del 1979, quindi non era in PD negli Stati Uniti nel 1996 e quindi non rispetta la URAA, onde su Commons non può stare. Può stare su it.wiki perché è comunque in PD in Italia. -- SERGIO ^{(aka the Blackcat)} 09:35, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
