Hello, Thorguds!
Tip: Add categories to your files
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.

It seems like I cannot figure out how to categorize the pictures properly. I would pleased if someone could help help me out.

After comparing this photo with other photos of Sami nomads, one can suggest that this photo is most likely taken by the photographer with the Roland Bonaparte expedition in 1884. Bonaparte photographed the Sami people in the same areas as this group, a group that migrated with their herds between Sweden (winter) and Norway (summers). However, because this information is not given on this photography I can not refer to Bonaparte as a source. The photography is likely from the late 1800's, judged from their clothing.

This media was probably deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Den tidligste kjente avbildning av Guden Zevs. 9-8. århundre før vanlig tidsregning BCE..tif, 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:Den tidligste kjente avbildning av Guden Zevs. 9-8. århundre før vanlig tidsregning BCE..tif]]).

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.

I am waiting for a response from Aeleftherios, because he is the one that added this photo as a public photo. It seems to me that Aeleftherios took this photo at August 10th 2010, and that he has answered Author unknown as an answer to whom originally made the Bronze Shield of Zeus. Wikipedia should have asked: Who took the photo? Thorguds (talk) 15:11, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment: User Aeleftherios left WikiCommons in November 2010 as his last contribution was made here in that month. He is unlikely to respond to your message. Regarding the original image of the bronze shield that Aeleftherios uploaded in 2010, Admin Lymantria has resolved the problem and added the original license for it after I discussed it with him here Apparently user g.dallorto accidentally removed the license that Aeleftherios gave for the bronze shield image while adding a category for it on June 1, 2012. This is the History of the image file/photo. If you have any problems, you should speak to Admin Lymantria on his talkpage. He is in your timezone in the Netherlands. --Leoboudv (talk) 07:22, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sami people

[edit]

Hej! Jag råkade se att bilder på både Anja Pärson och Jens Byggmark hamnat i kategorin "Sami people". Av historiken att döma är det du som gjort den klassificeringen. Har du något stöd för den klassificeringen? Ingenting sägs i alla fall i deras artiklar på sv:wikipedia om att de skulle vara samer.--Skogsfrun (talk) 20:19, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Kategorisering

[edit]

Hej Thorguds! Jag har lagt ned mycket tid på att försöka få ordning på den alltför stora och svåröverskådliga kategorin Category:Sami people. Nu ser jag att du börjat återställa en del av mina ändringar. Jag förstår inte riktigt poängen med att ha en jättekategori för alla "Sami people" och som du säkert vet ska man inte överkategorisera, dvs. placera en bild både i en allmän kategori och i en mer specifik (se Commons:OVERCAT#Over-categorization, där man kan läsa: "The general rule is always place an image in the most specific categories, and not in the levels above those."). Jag vill därför be dig att inte lägga in Category:Sami people på nytt.--Skogsfrun (talk) 16:04, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Skogsfrun. Please respect that other people have their opinion in how these photos of Sami people and culture should be categorized. I have bought and shared these photos in Wikimedia Commons and want the photos added by Thorguds to be in a wider category. It is ok if you additionally add them to narrower categories because some people think like that, but do not remove my photos from the wider categories. It is much more complicated to use Wikimedia Commons when photos are over-categorized. The Sami people belongs to the Nordic areas since ancient times (before national borders) and are not easily categorized to the particular national states Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Russia. Also you have made some errors by categorizing Sami people living in Norway to the category of Sweden and some people who are identifiable by names in national museums in Sweden and in Norway to unidentifiable persons. When categories are fuzzy they should be left in wider categories instead of in specified erroneous. Thorguds(talk) 10:11, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
