Please don't blank pages
[edit]Hi Skim,
Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed you blanked Category:Auguste Gräfin von Harrach on Commons. I asume you meant for the page to be deleted, but blanking the page is not the right way to do this. I'd like to strongly recommend to use {{speedy| type reason here }} and add it on top of the page you would like to have deleted; This way it will be placed on a special list that administrators check regularly for deletion. Without this it might take a long time before it's noticed.
- PS: I've deleted Category:Auguste Gräfin von Harrach now. No need to tag it, since I'm here now anyway. Just keep the above in mind next time, Thanks again. –Krinkletalk 20:44, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

House of Páni
[edit]Zdravím. Nezdají se mi názvy kategorií typu Category:House of Páni z Hradce, tedy ten způsob mixování angličtiny s češtinou. Pokud se používá anglický obrat "house of", tak by zřejmě mělo být standardně přeloženo i "Lords of". Nejsem si ani jistý, jestli souběh obou těchto označení není pleonasmem - pokud jako označení rodu použijeme ono "páni" nebo "lords", tak už pak je asi zbytečné doplňovat ještě i "house of". Pak by asi stačil název Category:Páni z Hradce nebo Category:Lords of Hradec. Já jsem na to narazil náhodou a víc se tím asi zabývat nebudu, ale zkuste se nad tím zamyslet, popřípadě to probrat s někým, kdo má zkušenosti s anglojazyčnou literaturou o české šlechtě. --ŠJů (talk) 00:06, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- Zdravím. Mě se to také moc nelíbí, ale nevím co s tím. Snažím se trošku pohnout z celou tou sekci Category:Nobility of Bohemia a hlavně ze Category:Coats of arms of families of the Czech Republic. Když jsem to vytvořil a pospojoval s existujícími skupinami, tak se najednou objeví problémy s názvy. Myslím si, že je rozumné skupiny rodin nazývat „House of _RODINA_“ nebo „_RODINA_ family“. (Category:Nobility families of Poland). Už jenom kvůli odlišení rodin a ostatních významů. Zatím je to tak půl na půl. Navíc se vyskytůjí jěště názvy jako „_RODINA_ (Adelsfamilie)“, „_RODINA_ (family)“ a „_RODINA_“. Pak nastávají ty problémy, které zmiňujete. Překládat vše do angličtiny? Nebude to zmatečné? Pěkně to jde vidět na výše zmiňované sekci polských rodin. Pak by se ty jména měly překládat. --Skim (talk) 05:19, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
Coats of arms of ...
[edit]Hi Skim, any cleanup of categories is always wellcome and I don't want to interfere with you. Still I I think your categorizing of coats of arms of families under the name Coats of arm of... is not very helpfull. Coats of arms of ... can pertain to a family, a town or village, or to a later territory. Most of the time the coats of arms I have an eye on pertain to noble families. I think it is important to keep the categories of their coats of arms to their families and not let them be corrupted by municipal or other coats of arms. That will happen very soon, if you keep up your naming scheme, which does not allow for differentiation between families or towns or whatever. --Wuselig (talk) 13:19, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Just to show you, what could happen: Category:Coats of arms of Cappel. --Wuselig (talk) 13:28, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. I understand your opinions. We need a discussion about this. We need a naming scheme for this. Ideally universal. But, i am not a native English speaker and there is a problem for me. What can i do for it? Skim (talk) 13:41, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Simply, i can change Cappel family CoA to Category:Coats of arms of Cappel family, but this problem is bigger. Skim (talk) 13:44, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- With this addition I could live. The problem could get bigger when people can't distinguish between the coats of arm of a ruler and the territory he or she ruled. In all territories ruled by a ruling family this distiction is made even today, as the term Her Majesty's Government shows for example. But where do you want to discuss this? --Wuselig (talk) 22:57, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- You are doing a hell of a job at the moment and I can' keep up looking after all of your changes. But I would like to ask you to be more dilligent. If there is a family called Zollern-Schalksburg and we have a category named such, it i not helpful to put all of these coats of arms in to the category "Zollern-family", even though they might look alike. They should rightly belong into the category Zollern-Schalksburg-family. This category you can than put as a suncategory of the Zollern-family, which of course is a subcategory of the Hohenzollern-family. And please have a lookout, that there is a Swabian and a Franconian Branch of the Zollern-family. It would not be helpfull, if we had to sort these peas and carrots out of this common dish you are creating in places. --Wuselig (talk) 18:39, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- So.. I move all CoA with historical name Zollern to Category:Coats of arms of Zollern family. It is right? Skim (talk) 18:44, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
- No, this is what I observed you doing with those coats of arms that I had on my observation list. You moved images that were in a differentiated category into the less specific Category:Coats of arms of Zollern family. Are you so familiar with the Hohenzollern-Genealogy that you can place all the coats of arms into the correct category. If not use the existing categorization unlesss you relly know better. It would be a shame if your well meant effort destroys information we already had. The listing you made below shows very well the point I made above. The evolution from coats of arms of families to dynatic coats of arms to territorial coats of arms to coats of arms of states to coats of arms of municipalities to coats of arms of modern counties which only mirror the historical background of this county. --Wuselig (talk) 21:28, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi, the names Category:Coats of arms of Wolkenstein family (I) and Category:Coats of arms of Wolkenstein family (II) are not very descriptive or self-explanatory. If there is a need to split the category, they should better be named Wolkenstein-Trostburg and Wolkenstein-Rodenegg after the two main branches of that family.

Hi, once more in turn: http://www.wappenbuch.com/B040.htm -- noblemen Vilanders COA; http://www.wappenbuch.com/A026.htm -- Freyherrn Wolckenstein not as you wrote Graven Wolckenstein COA; http://www.wappenbuch.com/G012.htm -- Graven Wolckenstein COA indeed; further, in Russian link [Волькенштейн] if you'll be careful you can notice that this family name in Russian is written in original document as Волкенштейн without soft mark. Soft mark now in Russian way of writing in our area belong to Jewish family which appeared in Taganrog town probably in the middle of XIX century I don't know from where. This mistake is generaly extended.
With respect S.S. Wolkenstein.

Integrace šablony popisu souboru
[edit]Zdravím. Dovoluji si upozornit, že není omyl, ale záměr, že mnozí uživatelé umisťují údaje o licenci do k tomu určené kolonky šablony {{Information}}, popřípadě že specifikaci vyfoceného místa umisťují do kolonky pro popis, s nímž tvoří logický celek, a nikoliv až kamsi za údaje o autorství a licenci, s nimiž nemá žádnou logickou souvislost. Zatímco v počátcích Commons byl obsah stránky souboru primárně členěn pomocí nadpisů do oddílů, od vynalezení šablony {{Information}} je možno všechny základní informace o souboru umístit organizovaně a logicky do této šablony, jejíž kolonky jsou ve většině případů schopny nahradit původní členění informací na oddíly. Je sice fakt, že některé nástroje dosud ještě nebyly tomuto vývoji plně přizpůsobeny a někteří uživatelé preferují alespoň částečné zachování původního uspořádání, ale považoval bych za slušnost preferovat z možných účelných variant to uspořádání, které volí uploader příslušného souboru.
- Abych to vysvětlil. Striktně se řídím principem nejmenší složitosti.
- Licence. Vzhledem k tomu, že šablony licence jsou strašně velké, nemyslím si, že je vhodné je umisťovat do {{Information}} šablony v této podobě. Zesložiťuje to pohled na stránku. Chápal jsem to tak, že se tam píše nějaké upřesnění. Pokud by to tam mělo být, viděl bych smysl ve změně {{Information}} šablony tak, aby to bylo na konci a to tak, aby to takovým způsobem nezasahovalo do celkového vzhledu té šablony a stránky jako celku.
- Další změna, kterou občas provedu je přesunutí GPS souřadnic za {{Information}}, protože to vypadá dost blbě. = tabulka v tabulce. Místo za {{Information}} šablonou vypadá jako místo, kde to zapadá. Říkáte, že se to více hodí k popisu. Já souhlasím, poté by bylo dobré to zahrnout přímo do {{Information}} a zařadit přímo za popis.
- Poznámka:
- Chtělo by to vidět záznam o tom, jak se to má dělat. Jinak to celé nemá smysl.
- Každopádně lze říct, že přispívat do tohoto systému můžu jedině v případě, že mi to dává smysl.
- (Je pravda, že celý tento systém smysl nedává, ale ...) Pokud bych se měl řídit přesně tím, co říkáte, bez vylepšení daných věcí, nebudu zasahovat do daného vůbec. Což je možnost.
- Skim (talk) 09:03, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Že jsou některé šablony licencí neúměrně a neprakticky velké je fakt, ovšem není dobrým řešením, když v tabulce je sice pro tento údaj vyhrazeno místo, ale odtamtud je uživatel odkazován zase kamsi jinam anebo je informace o licenci zbytečně zdvojována. Ostatně třeba popis souboru může také být v některých případech rozsáhlejší a také to není důvodem k tomu, aby byl vykazován mimo tabulku. Každopádně je nutno vzít na vědomí, že existuje určitá skupina uživatelů, kteří mají snahu některé věci z tabulky systematicky vyhazovat ven, a zase jiná skupina uživatelů, kteří se je snaží začleňovat dovnitř (kdysi jsem narazil na kohosi, kdo se snažil dovnitř tabulky dávat i "original upload log" u přesunutých souborů). Za této situace je standardním a slušným řešením, že každý u souborů, které sám nahrává, se snaží volit to uspořádání, které považuje za nejlepší, ale u souborů, které nahrál někdo jiný, se nebude zbytečně přetahovat s těmi, kdo preferují jiné řešení. Já to také dělám tak, že jakmile u některého z kolegů vidím něco, co dělá lépe a užitečněji, tak to od něj převezmu a začnu to dělat také tak. Čili, pokud nějaká změna je konsensuální a nekotroverzní, tak ji u cizích souborů bez obav provádím, ale pokud o něčem vím, že je to dlouhodobě předmětem sporů, tak je dobré vzít na vědomí obě používané varianty. Vylepšovat věci je užitečná práce, ale pokud jsou různé názory na to, co je lepší, tak je užitečné se vyhnout zbytečnému přetahování. Co se týče úprav stránek cizích souborů, přesun licence do tabulky Information považuji v současné době za vcelku neproblematický krok, který se nesetkává s větším odporem a obvykle výrazně zpřehlední i zdrojový kód (všiml jsem si hodně lidí, kteří to takhle dělají, a ty jsi v poslední době první případ, kdo to vrací naopak), zatímco umístění šablony "location" považuji za spornou záležitost, a tedy zpravidla respektuji umístění zvolené uploaderem, pokud je zřejmé, že ho zvolil záměrně. Určitá pluralita názorů a dynamika řešení do jisté míry patří k povaze projektů, které neřídí jeden člověk. Má to nevýhody (občas v něčem nejednotnost), ale i výhody (dobré nápady se uchytí rychle a "samy"). --ŠJů (talk) 22:25, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Požadavek na integraci souřadnic do šablony Information, a to logicky k těm údajům, s nimiž souvisí, už byl v diskusích párkrát vznesen, a troufám si říct i podpořen. Vycházím z toho, že přehledné logické uspořádání má na stránce souboru vyšší prioritu než prvotní estetický dojem. Pokud tedy volím mezi tím, jestli něco "vypadá blbě" z hlediska toho, jak zařezávají barvičky ve sloupečkách, anebo jestli něco "vypadá blbě" proto, že jsou informace nelogicky rozházené a související informace nejsou sdružené dohromady, tak volím radši to první "blbé vypadání" než to druhé. Pokud to graficky blbě vypadá, tak řešením je upravit grafiku šablony location tak, aby byla kompatibilní s oběma užívanými umístěními, popřípadě konečně dořešit tu přímou integraci do šablony Information, nikoliv tu šablonu stěhovat na místo, kde sice možná na první pohled hezky vypadá, ale kam obsahem nepatří. Jako čtenář-uživatel chci mít údaje o tom, co je vidět na fotce, pěkně pohromadě a ne je lovit z různých koutů stránky, a jako pro uploadera je pro mě také praktičtější mít související údaje pohromadě.
A ještě jednu poznámku: ne vždy je vhodné zakládat kategorii už pro jeden obrázek. Pokud nemáš nějaké echo, že by se někdo chtěl věnovat focení kanálových poklopů speciálně v Pardubicích, a pokud dokonce ani onen poklop na té jediné fotce není ničím specificky pardubický, tak snad by bývalo bylo vhodnější tu fotku zatím nechat v nadřazené kategorii poklopů v České republice. Není to vyloženě chyba, ale obecně je vhodné, aby kategorie nebyly zakládány pro příliš malé počty souborů, pokud k tomu není zvláštní důvod. --ŠJů (talk) 04:39, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Snažím se toto respektovat. Až na občasné výjimky jako lidi a věci jako ty poklopy. Většinou tehdy, pokud je předpoklad, že jich bude více nebo pro přílišnou složitost nadřízené kategorie. Ohledně Brna mám třeba některé ve fotkách a rád bych to řešil. Je pravdou, že Pardubice jsou z ruky :-)Skim (talk) 09:16, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Je fakt, že tohle všechno je trochu věcí citu a pravidly to těžko postihnout. Já taky někdy zakládám kategorii i pro jednu fotku, a těžko vysvětlovat, proč někdy ano a jindy ne. Ale obecně je dobré si uvědomit, že když pro některá města je užitečné vytvořit v rámci nějakého tématu podkategorie, tak to ještě nemusí nutně znamenat, že je třeba vytvořit podkategorii pro každou obec, ze které je třeba jen jedna fotka. Ber moji připomínku prostě jen jako zpětnou vazbu, že v případě pardubických kanálů mi to přišlo už divné či zbytečné. Ale respektuju, že tvůj dojem může být jiný - každopádně, dokonce i kdybys změnil názor, tak teď už nemá smysl tu kategorii zase mazat. Obecně vzato, kategorie pro jednu fotku je přijatelnější tehdy, je-li určena pro jeden subjekt (jednoho člověka, jednu obec, jednu železniční stanici), zatímco předčasná bývá v případě kategorie kombinující více kritérií (např. co-kde, typu "patníky v Horní Dolní" nebo (když to přeženu) "Modré autobusy Mercedes-Benz O441 firmy Icom Transport v Dolní Kracli". --ŠJů (talk) 22:25, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Hello,
As you can read on the offical website of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tournai, the tradition is that, like an archbishop, there arms have ten tassels, but the cross is single, that means there are bishops :
Le chapeau d'un évêque comporte normalement deux fois trois rangs de houppes vertes, mais la tradition du siège épiscopal de Tournai, qui remonte à plusieurs siècles, est d'y mettre deux fois quatre rangs, comme pour un archevêque. C'est la croix au-dessus du blason qui indique sans ambiguïté qu'il s'agit d'un évêque. (source : site officiel du diocèse de Tournai).

Polish coats of arms
[edit]Category:Coats of arms of Biberstein family is actually not really correct, since in Poland, not families have a distinct coat of arms, but one coat of arms can be shared by many families (see e. g. w:de:Wappengemeinschaft or w:en:Polish heraldry). Hence, I think we need a different category naming system for Polish coats of arms. --AndreasPraefcke (talk) 12:00, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ok. Really, we have problem with 'family' name generally. For example: (Category:Coats of arms of Skene family. One CoA is family CoA in Austria/Czech Republic. Other is Scotish Clan.) (English Barons above more families) (More noble titles above one real family)
- Noble family isn't same as family. Noble family has a "nobility list" in one "nobility system" (=Germany, =Holy Roman Empire etc.).
- I prefer for now:
- Same CoAs in separate categories (Commons).
- Get information about nobility systems (dates from-to, state/s).
- Get information about nobility lists (who, title, years from-to, nobility system). (For example this unsourced list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_counts_of_Austria-Hungary)
- Add CoA from free books to Commons.
- Sources for everything.
- I call for naming scheme of CoA categories. :-) (with examples)
- BTW: We have Biberstein in http://www.wappenbuch.com/B032.htm .
- Skim (talk) 14:40, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
Heraldry is so complicated (and different in each country) that a simple category system will never be able to give all the information we want. Hence, we should stick to categories we can handle... The Biberstein is an especially complicated example. The Polish Biberstein CoA derived from the German/Swiss Biberstein (or often Bieberstein) family's CoA. Maybe we should rename the category to "Category:Biberstein coat of arms (Poland)" and make that a subcategory of "Coats of arms of Bieberstein family" (or link to each other). --AndreasPraefcke (talk) 16:04, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Ad Bieberstein: That's ok for me. Maybe we can use derivative of "Coats of arms of Bieberstein family". Skim (talk) 03:02, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

podkategorie znaků obcí
[edit]Dobrý den, při doplňování znaků jsem zjisti, že pro znaky některých obcí zkládáte další podkategorie. Například Category:Coats of arms of municipalities of Uherské Hradiště District obsahuje podkategorie Category:Coats of arms of Bojkovice a Category:Coats of arms of Velehrad. Vzhledem k tomu, že lze předpokládat, že v uvedených podkategoriích již nic nového nebude, přijde mi to jako zbytečné členění a soubory bych přesunul do Category:Coats of arms of municipalities of Uherské Hradiště District a podkategorie (případně duplicitní soubory) zrušil. Nechci to ale udělat hned, pokud jste to zakládal cíleně s nějakou vizí. děkuji -kloin- (talk) 06:53, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
- Dobrý den. V uvedených podkategoriích něco přibývat může. Třeba historické reprodukce daného znaku, případně fotky znaku v daném místě. Hezký příklad je např. Category:Coat of arms of Brno-Řečkovice a Mokrá Hora. Skim (talk) 08:34, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
- Děkuji, myslím, že i tak je to zbytečné, a postačovalo by zařazení jen do obrázků obce, ale kategorizace není má nejsilnější stránka a jsem rád, že se ji jiní věnují systematicky. Do vámi vytvořeného dělení tedy nebudu zasahovat a děkuji za rychlou odpověď.-kloin- (talk) 08:48, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
- Já osobně jsem pro vytváření kategorií na Wikipedii tehdy, pokud do ní spadá více než jeden objekt. Pokud bych to tak nedělal, tak se v tom ztratím. Praktická subjektivní zkušenost. U kategorií znaků bych to dělal určitě, protože reálně hrozí poměrně dost obrázků. Viz třeba mé rodné město, které jsem prošel a mám desítky znaků. Potom se lze do dané kategorie koukat a třeba porovnávat ty znaky. Skim (talk) 09:03, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Hello Skim,
an en:armor is not the same as a coat of the arms. This means that the name of this category created by you is wrong.

Zdravím. Mohu se zeptat, jaký smysl má tato kategorizace? Ze současných 32 podkategorií je všech 32 zcela anachronických - to by se dalo vyřešit vytvořením příslušných vhodných kategorií (Category:Books in Czechoslovakia by year, Category:Books in Austria-Hungary by the year atd.) ale ... má to smysl? Neviděl jsem, že by se někde v citacích uváděl stát vydání (leda pro rozlišení od jiného stejnojmenného místa, např. Oxford (USA), ani že by se někde tímto způsobem knihy kategorizovaly nebo katalogizovaly. --Shlomo (talk) 19:24, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Shlomo: To co jsem dosud dělal je to, že jsem zařadil do stávajících kategorii ty knihy, které jsem na Commons našel (Books -> Works, tříděny podle roku, dekad, apod.). Problém je to, že jsou to knihy vydané v České republice a ta tehdy neexistovala. Takže jsem to chtěl teď předělat tak, aby ty knihy co byly vydány za Rakouska-Uherska šly do Category:Books in Austria-Hungary. No a co je rozumné, tak nějak z toho vydělit ty knihy, které jsou česky. Takže buď lze knihu dát do kategorie books in Bohemia a zároveň do Austria-Hungary (pokud jsou z té doby). Nebo to udělat, jak to dělám teď. Ono těch knih bude mraky, takže si nemyslím, že by to bylo úplně mimo. Já to dodělám alespoň na ty knihy (tzn. vyhodím ty works kategorie) a uvidíme. Skim (talk) 19:38, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Ehm, když Česká republika tehdy neexistovala, tak v ní těžko mohly být vydávány knihy... byly vydávány buď v Rakousku, v Československu, v Protektorátě nebo v Německé říši. A dost často se to bude těžko určovat (např. u knihy vydané v r. 1918...)
- @Shlomo: Ano. Skim (talk) 20:50, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Geopolitická kategorizace vám s vyčleněním knih podle jazyka nepomůže. Knihy v češtině vycházely i na Moravě, ve Vídni, v USA; naopak v Čechách vycházelo mnoho knih v němčině (nejen za Rakouska, ale v trochu menší míře i za Československa). O sbornících, kde byla půlka článků česky a půlka německy ani nemluvě. Chcete-li kategorizovat podle jazyka, tak je asi potřeba vytvořit kategorie podle jazyka, a případně je zkombinovat s kategoriemi zeměpisnými (Category:Books in Czech from Austria-Hungary, Category:Books in Czech from Czechoslovakia, atd.)--Shlomo (talk) 20:40, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Já tohle všechno chápu. Podle jazyka je to jednoduché, to je zatříděno. Teda až na řešení třeba staré čestiny vs novodobé češtiny. A to řešit teď nemíním. Jinak v těch současných kategoriích je skutečně třeba německy psaná kniha vydaná na Moravě zařazena v knihách u nas. Skim (talk) 20:50, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

most-perfect magic square
[edit]Thanks for your magic square image assignment. I would like the 12 x 12 image of the most-perfect magic squares added to the 12 x 12 magic square category.
- @Knecht03: Hi. I categorized magic squares, but only "normal magic squares". Other magic squares i move to Category:Number squares. That's bad. I think, that we need these categories (in category line by order):
Right? Skim (talk) 15:51, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your classification ideas. In the order 12 examples one of the magic squares is a pandiagonal magic square. The other category I would consider including would be associative magic squares. So there would be three subcategories ... associative, pandiagonal and most-perfect. If the square meets the magic square criteria it should be under the main heading of a magic square. I am not sure what to do with the semi-magic squares. The semimagic square does not require the diagonals to have the magic sum. Harry White on his website has a program that takes the input for a square and automatically gives a classification of its magic properties. He is probably the wisest person who has given a tool to categorize these squares.
The information below is from the description of Harry White's "Get Type" free program that evaluates a unknown square.
Checks the type of each square as: not magic, normal semimagic, other semimagic, normal magic, other magic. If the type is normal magic, checks other properties : adjacent corner, adjacent side, associative, concentric, bordered, bordering, symlateral, pandiagonal, compact, complete, bent diagonal, Franklin, zigzag, self-complement, bimagic, trimagic. If the type is normal semimagic also checks appropriate properties in the list. See notes. Results are written to <in file name>TypeDetail[_n].txt.

Reminder: Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2016 is open!
[edit]You are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2016 Picture of the Year contest.
Dear Skim,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2016 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eleventh edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2016) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1475 candidate images. There are 58 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top #1 and #2 from each sub-category.
In the final round, you may vote for just one or maximal three image to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 2 will end on 20 April 2017, 23:59:59 UTC.
Thanks,
--Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee 08:43, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
Coats of arms of Příbor II
[edit]Zdravím,
můžu se zeptat, co tato kategorie, respektive nutnost mít víc než "Coats of arms of Příbor", má za smysl? Příbor I má podkategorii ve které je stejně Příbor II. Přišlo mi to jako nějaký pozůstatek něčeho nerealizovaného, tak jsem to neřešil, ale když jste přesunul znak z obecné do Příbor II nedalo mi to se nezeptat...--TFerenczy (talk) 12:30, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
- @TFerenczy: Zdravím. Pokud má historicky dané město více verzí znaků, tak jsem založil více kategorií. Už jenom z té podstaty, že v dané kategorii mají být stejné věci. V téhle dáné kategorii je znak z věže kostela. Bohužel nemám lepší foták na vyfocení lepší verze. Je jich po Příboře více, více je v knize Kamenné svědectví minulosti. Heraldické památky Novojičínska. No a ta novější je derivátem te první, znak byl polepšen o vinařské nože Dietrichsteinů. Možná je lepší to lépe pojmenovávat, jako např. u Category:Coats_of_arms_of_Olomouc. Je to pochopitelné? Skim (talk) 14:24, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
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.Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 13:15, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
[edit]Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at Wikimedia Commons.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to [email protected], so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at [email protected].
Thank you!
