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) 11:07, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Your uploads on February , 2012, referring to India : Categorisation
[edit]Hi, please use useful categories and don't over-categorize your images, i.e. please do not categorize your uploads (an example of your recent activity):
You'll help to save time and capacity on commons by categorizing:
- Category:Churches in Kochi or much more specific
Please use as far as possible the category of the regarding city/town/village or district (if there's no category) etc., or, a localized better 'fitting' i.e. the 'most fitting"' category(ies). Do not add - in addition - the categories of the "parent category", among them cities, states and countries etc.
For further information on categories please read Commons:Categories referring to an accurate categorisation, simplifying your further uploads and categorisation in general. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the commons:help desk.
Thank you for your assistance, Roland 17:33, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, as mentioned before, please also avoid non-existing respectively miss-leading 'categories, among them "Indian coins" etc.etc. >> (p.e) Category:Rupee (coins), thanks, Roland 13:02, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Things to change while using commonist
[edit]Hello Ranjithsiji,
While using Commonist for uploading multiple files, please do remove the template {{Malayalam loves Wikimedia event - 2}} or {{MLW2}} from the description area and place it under license text box (on left side). Then the file page will look like this. Ask if you have any doubt. :) --Vaikoovery (talk) 11:41, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

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. Sreejith K (talk) 18:50, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Picture of the Year voting round 1 open
[edit]Dear Wikimedians,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2012 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We're interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year for 2012. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:
- Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC].
- This user account must have more than 75 edits on any single Wikimedia project before Tue, 01 Jan 2013 00:00:00 +0000 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2012 Contest Eligibility tool.
- Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.
To see the candidate images just go to the POTY 2012 page on Wikimedia Commons
Wikimedia Commons celebrates our featured images of 2012 with this contest. Your votes decide the Picture of the Year, so remember to vote in the first round by January 30, 2013.
Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

Hi Ranjithsiji,
You now have the Patroller right and may call yourself a patroller! Please take a moment to read the updated Commons:Patrol to learn how Patrolling works and how we use it to fight vandalism.
As you know already, the patrolling functionality is enabled for all edits, not just for new-page creations. This enables us to keep track of, for example, edits made by anonymous users here on Commons.
We could use your help at the Counter Vandalism Unit. For example by patrolling an Anonymous-edits checklist and checking a day-part.
If you have any questions please leave a message on the CVU talkpage or ask for help on IRC in #wikimedia-commons. --Steinsplitter (talk) 10:35, 3 December 2014 (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 google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, 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 google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Please STOP taking down deletion requests
[edit]You are entitled to withdraw deletion requests where no-one has offered an opinion, but may not take them down. You are leaving a trail of chaos behind yourself. You need to solve this problem you have caused. Timtrent (talk) 20:58, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Timtrent: I was done some real damage due to some serious misunderstanding with the guidelines of commons. I must consider COM:AGF before putting the deletion requests. To clear things I had taken down all the request made. Really sorry for what I had done. So I cleared all the requests. --Ranjithsiji (talk) 21:03, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- You may not do this. You may comment on the requests, withdrawing them if you wish, but may NOT take them down. You are not doing any damage proposing things for deletion. The damage is the way you have attempted to sort out your mess. Stop doing it please. Timtrent (talk) 21:07, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- I have been unable to correct this diff Perhaps you will now solve that problem. All you have achieved is a mess for others to clear up. Please put it back the way it should be. If you make a mess again please ask an admin to help you clear it up. Timtrent (talk) 21:12, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Timtrent: OK I stopped. I already done the thing. If any more problem there please advice me how to clear things. Your opinion is very much valuable to me. --Ranjithsiji (talk) 21:14, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Let us simply reset the conversation. Thank you for stopping. I will trust that you have corrected all outstanding matters. Deletion discussions have an integrity which must be preserved. They are a formal and non trivial process. Once started they must run until closed. The proposer can withdraw the nomination, which is fine, but may not "take down" a discussion. Note that a withdrawal only removes the nominator's opinion, but does not of itself close the discussion.
Now, we must assume good faith, yes, but we must also be aware of COM:PCP. By identifying questionable files we cause the files to be inspected by others, by those with more expertise than we have. They make the ultimate decision on deletion or retention. Files without camera details are particularly difficult, and need to be treated with care.
It causes zero harm to nominate a file for deletion. A nomination is simply trigger for wise people to examine the file and determine what should be done with it. So please check that all is back as it should be, and then relax. Timtrent (talk) 21:24, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- We all make mistakes. Commons:Deletion requests/File:Zivan Vulic.jpeg is one of mine. The best thing with mistakes is to acknowledge our mistake, and then move on. That causes the least harm. Timtrent (talk) 21:28, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- OK. Thank you for your valuable advice. In future I will take good care before doing things. Hope Sreejithk2000 (talk · contribs) can also help me on this matter. Hope things will be fine. --Ranjithsiji (talk) 21:31, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- One important thing is that there is nothing wrong with a well considered deletion nomination. THere are sufficient checks and balances for others to reach a conclusion. As a nominator you are not judge, jury nor executioner. Al you are is the person creating the alert for others to determine the correct outcome. We must be wise when offering files for deletion, but do not need to know everything. And it is permitted to make errors, as long as we learn. Timtrent (talk) 21:42, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
- OK. Thank you for your valuable advice. In future I will take good care before doing things. Hope Sreejithk2000 (talk · contribs) can also help me on this matter. Hope things will be fine. --Ranjithsiji (talk) 21:31, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

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.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.

Hi Ranjithsiji, you're now a filemover. When moving files please respect the following advice:
- Use the CommonsDelinker link in the {{Rename}} template to order a bot to replace all ocurrences of the old title with the new one. Or, if there was no rename-request, please use the Move & Replace-tab.
- Please leave a redirect behind unless you have a valid reason not to do so. Other projects, including those using InstantCommons, might be using the file even though they don't show up in the global usage. Deleting the redirects would break their file references. Please see this section of the file rename guideline for more information.
- Please know and follow the file rename guidelines.
