Our first steps tour and our frequently asked questions will help you a lot after registration. They explain how to customize the interface (for example the language), how to upload files and our basic licensing policy (Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content). You don't need technical skills in order to contribute here. Be bold when contributing and assume good faith when interacting with others. This is a wiki. More information is available at the community portal. You may ask questions at the help desk, village pump or on IRC channel #wikimedia-commons (webchat). You can also contact an administrator on their talk page. If you have a specific copyright question, ask at the copyright village pump. |

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.BotMultichillT 05:36, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Categories of ships by name
editI note you moved Category:Amorella (ship, 1988) to Category:Mega Victoria (ship, 1988). That's not how we do on Commons. The Amorella category should contain media pertaining to the time the ship was called so, and the Victoria category media pertaining to the later career. Category:IMO 8601915 is there to collect those categories. Especially for ships that have been sold many times, it may be hard to find images when you are interested in a specific period, such as to illustrate an article about Viking Line. I'll post a revert request at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard#Category:Mega Victoria (ship, 1988).
(Vi flyttar inte skeppskategorier på det här sättet på Commons, utan har en skild kategori för varje namn, samlade genom IMO-kategorin.)

- Jag försökte också göra motsvarande på Wikidata. För uttalanden bör man använda slutdatum och startdatum i fall som detta, den historiska informationen är fullt relevant. Vet du när ändringarna skedde eller skall ske? Jag har för mig att ägarbytet skedde i veckan, men skedde bytet av namn och registreringsort samtidigt? Hur är det med anropssignalen? Den skall väl också bytas? –LPfi (talk) 04:47, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- Jag har inte riktigt den kunskapen, fartyget har lämnat Helsingfors och på väg till Italien just nu. Tror är Viking Lines personal som kör båten ner dit, så kanske först i oktober blir det ägare. Vet inte om anropssignalen byts. --AleWi (talk) 04:53, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- Ja, fartyget är på väg med en finsk besättning ombord. Jag vet inte om det också finns av köparens folk med (eller vem som för befälet). Utan datum protesterar Wikidata och man skulle ju ogärna lägga in felaktig information (jag angav nu "till september" och "från september", eller "från oktober", men det är bara en gissning). Jag vet inte heller hur man skall ange kopplingen till Commons. Jag antar att man borde koppla objektet och artiklarna till IMO-kategorin (eftersom wikipediorna väl alla har bara en artikel om fartyget), men det verkade inte riktigt fungera. –LPfi (talk) 05:05, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- Ja Wikipedia (gäller Svenska Wikpiedia och tror även Engelska) använder bara en artikel per fartyg och det senaste namnet som fartyget har/hade. AleWi (talk) 05:06, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

Category:Malung-Sälens Municipality
