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) 10:53, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

"Diocese of Lancaster" and "Lancashire"
[edit]There are parts of the Diocese of Lancaster that are not in Lancashire. There are parts of Lancashire that are not in the Diocese of Lancaster. So your recent change to the categories isn't correct. Can you please undo what you did? -- Dr Greg talk 22:56, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Dr Greg. Funnily enough I was just looking that up now. I think i also made the same mistake with a few other dioceses. Sure, no worries, will undo it. Pjposullivan (talk) 23:35, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks! -- Dr Greg talk 19:08, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

- Thank you FDMS4, the owner of the photos has now changed the license for both photos:
Are they now on the right license?
Thanks for the input, Pjposullivan (talk) 21:18, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, great, pinging User:McZusatz who enforced the deletion. FDMS 4 21:26, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
- @Pjposullivan: File:St Cuthbert's Church Venerable Bede window, Durham by Lawrence OP.jpg is still NC-ND at the source according to flickr. --McZusatz (talk) 21:40, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
- @FDMS4: Ever thought about RfA? ;) --McZusatz (talk) 21:40, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
- @McZusatz: Yes, thanks, but I'm unfortunately rather busy at the moment :). FDMS 4 21:58, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
- Hi McZusatz, I messaged the owner of the photos last night and I think that the Venerable Bede window (https://www.flickr.com/photos/paullew/14078019597/) has been switched to the same license as the Lady Chapel window. Thanks again for helping me with this, Pjposullivan (talk) 12:38, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, great, pinging User:McZusatz who enforced the deletion. FDMS 4 21:26, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

- Hi Hedwig in Washington, thank you, I was the one who put those pictures up for deletion. By doing so, I was trying to undo my past mistakes. Thank you for deleting them. Pjposullivan (talk) 09:15, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- No problem, no worries. --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 23:06, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- I have just found six more and have promptly put them up for deletion. Pjposullivan (talk) 17:37, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Names of the Scottish dioceses
[edit]Hi, j'espère que tu comprend le français, qui est la seule langue étrangère que je connais. Tu a fais autrefois cette carte (Scottish Catholic Dioceses), mais sans y mettre les noms des (archi)diocèses. Tu pourrais aussi ajouter les noms dans le même style que celui utilisé dans cette carte (English and Welsh Catholic Dioceses Map)? Thank you.--Croberto68 (talk) 14:45, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
- Bonjour Croberto68, merci, je voudrais aussi utiliser le même style que les cartes de l'Angleterre et du Pays de Galles. Je n'ai pas le temps maintenant, mais j'aimerais le faire dans un avenir proche. Si vous voulez essayer, n'hésitez pas. Happy editing! Pjposullivan (talk) 12:39, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
- Ciao. Je ne suis pas capable de travailler les photos... et je ne voudrais pas faire des betises. On peut attendre quant tu aura du temps.--Croberto68 (talk) 12:51, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
No blame, but I don't seem how it doesn't qualify for COM:CSD F2/F3. I won't tag the other file with anything so we can discuss (on the deletion request page you created) this first without causing more issues Shadowssettle (talk) 18:59, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
File:Catholic Dioceses in Greece.png
[edit]Hi! This map is not correct: Epirus is part of the Archdiocese of Corfu, Zakynthos, and Cephalonia, not of the Apostolic Vicariate of Thessaloniki. Is it possible to change it? Thanks! Jerus82 (talk) 08:30, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Jerus82. Yes, it is absolutely possible to change it, just upload a new corrected version. Thanks, Cardofk (talk) 09:59, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not be able to do it, I ask you if you can. Thanks! --Jerus82 (talk) 13:04, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
- Nonsense Jerus82, the whole point of Wikipedia is that anyone can edit it. Cardofk (talk) 13:24, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
