Hello. You have uploaded a lot of photos today, but you have not categorized them. Please read Commons:Categories before uploading further images.

I have deleted the paintings by Edvard Munch, as Munch`s works not yet are in the Public Domain. --Kjetil_r 20:29, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Categories

Hello Andreagrossmann, please check all your new created categories. Each category should itself be in more general categories, forming a hierarchical structure. Without this users can't find the images in it! --GeorgHH 20:39, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Response (Categories etc.)

Hi,

First of all thanks for all the messages and guidance -- I'm still very much in the process of learning to find my way around here.

So how do I make sure a new category fits within the hierarchical structure? (I figured out how to create them, but so far assumed it would have to be the administrators who stuck them in the appropriate place in the hierarchy ... happy to do so myself if I can, though, of course!)

Thanks again for your input.

AG, 25 September 2006

Hi.

You should put the new categories into the structure yourself, as the volume of new uploads is way too big for the administrators to do it.

You are doing fine now, but you tend to over-categroize. That is, if you put Category:William Shakespeare in Category:English poets, there is no need to put it in Category:British poets and Category:Poets as well, as these are supercategories of Category:English poets.

If you need to ask questions, the best place to ask them is at Commons:Help desk. You can also always ask me at my talk page. --Kjetil_r 21:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this image, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. If the file is up for deletion because it has been superseded by a superior derivative of your work, consider the notion that although the file may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new file. In all cases, please do not take the deletion request personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!

Writers categorization

There are numberous writer categories (see w:Category:Writers by format), and in my opinion, it is inadequate to put these categories together on top, as you add the SPACE character before the sort keys. I rather suggest you to use low-case letters: so, [[Category:Poets from Germany|poets]] will not be between Parkin and Praschl.

More, when you redirect a category, like Category:Authors from Germany, don't forget adding a colon to prevent categorization: #REDIRECT [[:Category:Authors from Germany]].

Regards. --Juiced lemon 19:15, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

If you really want to redirect categories, use the template {{Category redirect}}, not a normal redirect. --Kjetil_r 21:28, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Kategorien

Hallo Andrea, meiner Ansicht nach ist es nicht sehr sinnvoll, Kategorien anzulegen, die jeweils nur einen einzigen Eintrag enthalten. Koenntest du die bitte jeweils in der uebergeordneten Kategorie lassen? --Elian ^Talk 20:53, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Andrea, I wonder whether you would mind if I expand the scope of Category:Troilus and Cressida, which you created, to include illustrations to do with other versions of the story. I added an illustration of Chaucer Image:Chaucer Troilus frontispiece.jpg before I realised how you had defined the category and I would quite like to add illustrations of il filostrato, the earliest work dedicated to the Troilus and Cressida story.

Tip: Categorizing images

---

Hello, Andreagrossmann!

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:'Boudica's Charm' Ornament.JPG

This media was probably deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:'Boudica's Charm' Ornament.JPG, was missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. The file probably has been deleted. If you've got all required information, request undeletion providing this information and the link to the concerned file ([[:File:'Boudica's Charm' Ornament.JPG]]). 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!
