Swedish Arms

Thanks for your message about the Swedish Coat of Arms. My aim was to get the ball rolling on converting the arms to SVG by sketching the arms and hoping that, collaboratively, more details could be filled in. One of the advantages of SVG is that is very easy for anyone to make changes. Why don't you have a go yourself at correcting some of the problems? Best wishes, Arcjgh 15:03, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, B****n!

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.

File source is not properly indicated: File:Von_Linne_Coat_of_Arms.png

This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Von_Linne_Coat_of_Arms.png, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Danish crown

You asked about the mitre crown design for the Danish Kings. The depiction for that comes as far as I can remember from "A History of the Crown Jewels of Europe" written by Lord Edward Francis Twining.
