Location? edit

Hi Raniel - thanks for adding File:Philippine Tailordbird.jpg to Commons! Could you add some details about where in the Philippines you took the photo, as this will help a lot with identification. Thanks! - MPF (talk) 23:42, 7 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello Ranieljosecastaneda,

I noticed you've uploaded multiple images that differ only in size, and I thought I should draw your attention to a certain feature of our software. MediaWiki, the software which drives Commons and other projects like Wikipedia, is able to handle reducing the size of the images automatically. For example, even though File:Red Apple.jpg is a very large picture (2418 × 2192 pixel), MediaWiki can automatically generate thumbnails in all sizes (example: 50-pixel thumbnail).

You can include a resized thumbnail of any image in a Wikipedia article using [[File:Red Apple.jpg|thumb|Description here]]

For a narrower image – those in upright or portrait aspect ratio  – use [[File:Red Apple.jpg|thumb|upright|Description here]]

Thanks to this feature, you only need to upload the highest-resolution image you have available. That's why File:Baguio Cathedral - Our Lady of Attonement.jpg will be deleted soon, while your larger image will remain available for use and resizing. I also recommend reading the picture tutorial, you will find answer for nearly all your questions regarding use of images there. Thank you and happy uploading.

Please do not upload duplicates of existing files, such as File:Baguio Cathedral - Our Lady of Attonement.jpg which is a duplicate of File:Baguio Cathedral.jpg. Kindly exercise some prudence before making uploads, to prevent needless cleanup from other users. Regards, JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 18:37, 26 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
