Hello, Mohamed Amarochan!

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.

Request for new arabic description edit

Latest comment: 10 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Do you mind if you add a new Arabic description for File:Tifinagh writing.JPG? I wrote English and French based on the sign. Please translate it into Arabic. Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 17:57, 12 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Also do you mind adding Arabic to File:Amz-plake province Tiznite.JPG as well? WhisperToMe (talk) 23:44, 12 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

RE: File:Kasr_Al_Nile_Bridge.JPG edit

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello,

The caption is given as "View of the Qasr El Nil Bridge in Cairo, with Gezira Island in the background" The Arabic word "Gezira" (variants: Gazira, Jazira, Jazeera) means "island". The name of the island in question is "Zamalek". Hence the caption should refer to "Zamalek Island", NOT "Gezira Island". --Nfr-Maat (talk) 03:20, 1 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
