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.CategorizationBot (talk) 14:09, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

File:Ilojo Bar AKA Olaiya House.jpg edit
Hi, Having looked on Streetview and Google images the majority of those buses there are Volkswagen Type 2 (T3),
The vehicles in your photo would appear to be Nissans/Toyotas however many vehicles exist that are identical but aren't the same so unless I have a full size image where I can zoom in on things then these cannot really be identified,
A full size image may prove fruitless tho as from what I can see most van badges are taken off,
Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 16:34, 29 October 2019
Finn T-120 edit
Hi Zinnsoldat,
I can't understand your moves concerning the Finn T-120. I removed it from the Category:Unidentified vehicles because it IS identified: As a Finn T-120, as a tracked vhehicle, and as a hydroseeder. I' really can't see why you piut it back to Category:Unidentified vehicles. We can not do more for the picture there than what has already been done, and it will be removed there again, soon. You can correspond with me in German, if you like to do so. Sincerely --Chief tin cloud (talk) 19:39, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
Thanks edit
Thanks for identifying the vehicle, Frustratingly I actually searched "1970 van", "1971 van" right up to the 90s and nothing was coming up so therefore assumed it was maybe a Russian manufacturer, Anyway thanks for somehow managing to identify it!, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 14:33, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
- Having looked in the cats the Citroen C35 only has 11 images and the Fiat one only has 3 so I assume not that many were produced which is probably why there were no images of it under obvious search terms,
- FWIW I did do a reverse search on the image however even Google couldn't identify the vehicle and like I said nothing was showing under "1970 van" etc etc, Thanks again anyway. –Davey2010Talk 14:39, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
Autopatrol given edit
Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. ~riley (talk) 04:52, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Unidentified automobiles edit
Hi, Apologies for using rollback I got confused with another image and thought you were removing a DR notice,
I've removed the Unidentified automobiles category because:
- 1 vehicle is completely covered in snow and cannot be identified
- 1 image was taken from a car bonnet so you're going to have no chance at ever identifying it!
- The rest of the files include cars in them but the cars aren't the main subject of the photo
I hope this helps. Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 11:37, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- And in this image the main subject would be the high street or "people in <country>" not the car itself if that makes sense, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 11:40, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Categorizing Vietnam War images edit
I am not sure why you added back categories that I had removed from File:Empty artillery crates being unloaded at Con Thien, 7 December 1967.jpg. Do you really think that adding Category:United States Marine Corps, a category that has almost 43,000 images, is in any way useful or helps in the location and filtering of images? Category:Con Thien sits within Category:United States Marine Corps in the Vietnam War and so it is contained within a structured hierarchy of Marine Corps images. The truck is very obviously an M35, commonly used in the Vietnam War, if you want to add categories please try and add useful information, rather than generic unidentified categories.

Gales brewery van edit
The vehicle is not, repeat not, a truck. In British English vehicles used for delivering beer to public houses are known as drays. The term “beer truck” is not known in Br Eng. Please leave the categories alone, thank you. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 10:21, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
