Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Becak Bogor.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{self|cc-by-sa-2.5}} to release it under the Creative Commons or {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain. See Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.

Category

[edit]

Hi, I'm new here and planning to upload pictures from Indonesia/ Jakarta. My question is, if I would like to start a category, for example: category:street vendor in Indonesia -- should I just do that or should I do category:street vendor and category Indonesia For now, since I'm in a hurry I just do the first option, but your enlightment is appreciated.

Serenity 09:25, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note that categories are plural, so the category should be "Street vendors". However, Category:Street stalls in Indonesia already exists so another category is probably not needed. Most categories that you might need already exist, so it's always worth searching a little bit. - BanyanTree 11:56, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Banyan, thank you. I try to follow rules as I grasp it along the way (know-by-mistake-type). I also took a lot of pictures of flowers from Indonesia.

Unfortunately, I don't know what they are (latin name and so on).

Are there any expert that I can ask? Or is it possible just uploading the flower name as in:

Flower1
Flower2

But if I do so I'm afraid it'll be lost in the jungle of commons. Any idea? Serenity 06:58, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In case there are only a few plants/flowers, you may add Category:Unknown species. Regarding identification of species I made the best experiences when asking for help at the biology portal in my local wikipedia (:de). -- Túrelio 08:26, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Turelio, I did the same, unfortunately flowerist in my local wikipedia is only one, and his time is limited. I actually made a quiz page of: guess the name (hoping for a latin name) -- but out of 10s, I've got only 3 ... something like that. After I got the 3, I request deletion of the species and move it here --> Obviously multiple tasking to be done.

I'll do as you suggested then, Category unknown species from Indonesia (maybe it will be easier since it is already identified as a tropical country. Serenity 08:46, 8 May 2007 (UTC) 08:45, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your English seems good enough to ask at the English science reference desk; you might have more luck there, since there's a larger base of people to ask. You could upload them all with a uniform name, then ask for identification in bulk--the file could then be re-uploaded under their proper names. (Though I don't know if we frown on that here or not.) grendel|khan 22:03, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You might also try asking for assistance on the discussion page of w:Wikipedia:WikiProject Plants. Plastering that talk page with images would probably be unwelcome, but a request for help with a link to a relevant page of images for bulk identification would be OK. - BanyanTree 23:20, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
*crying* OMG, I thought my knowledge in wikipedia (writing) is good enough for commons, now that I saw the links that you suggested, I can't believe that 'darn camera of mine' now force me to learn an absolutely new science... hiks.
Thank you all, as you might be aware, my "internet time" is limited due to "personal use of official internet connection at my office" -- or something like that, as my supervisor like to pointed out *big grin*
I'll move all conversation to my discussion page and follow your advice... euh... slowly..
One more question, so the best thing to do to rename is actually to re-upload the file using the correct name, yes?
what happened with the uploaded picture with the wrong name? Should I put {{delete}} tags? Serenity 01:11, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Serenity, this image shows the inflorescence of a Jatropha of some sort. Since other details lack I'm only uncertain about the exact species. Do you remember the plant's shape and can confirm the name Jatropha podagrica? If so I'd place your image into the right gallery. Greetings, Ies 10:09, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The first looks like the plant I've seen labelled as Pachystachys lutea. I don't know enough about the genus to be able to be certain that it is this particular spcies.

The second is a Celosia. I'd say Celosia cristata, but again I'm not knowledgeable enough to be sure.

I don't know what banana flowers look like, but the third looks like a Heliconia, particularly Heliconia psittacorum. (I'd guess that the other two labelled as banana flowers are also Heliconias, but a different species.)

I hope that these hints will help you identify the plants from library or web references.

I noticed this was in Category:Animal. There is, however, no such category. Try Category:Animals. All categories like this tend be in plural form. I wouldn't put it in such a category though - just put it in the category or page for its species. Richard001 06:07, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kerupuk

[edit]

Hai Serenity, salam kenal. Setahu saya gambar ini bukan kerupuk kulit tapi kerupuk nasi. Kalau kerupuk kulit biasanya pakai kantong supaya nggak cepat lembab... Salam, MartijnL 20:45, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sekarang saya belum di Jakarta...Besok saya berangkat, hari minggu sampai di sana. Tentang kerupuk: saya akan bikin foto kerupuk kulit yang asli (di tempat saudara di Padang), ok? Coba lihat siapa yang benar ;-) Salam, MartijnL 15:46, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Serenity... Ternyata saya salah. Kerupuk di gambar tersebut memang kerupuk kulit. Maaf ya ;-) Salam, Martijn →!?← 16:54, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Serenity!

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Please keep in mind that images uploaded to Commons should be useful to all users of Wikimedia projects. This is possible only if the images can be found by other people.

To allow others to find the images you uploaded here, the images should be in some place that can be found by navigating the category structure. This means that you should put the images into appropriate topic pages, categories, optionally galleries, or both of them (see Commons:Categories). To find good categories for your images, the CommonSense tool may help.

You can find a convenient overview of your uploaded files in this gallery.

The important point is that the images should be placed in the general structure somewhere. There are a large number of completely unsorted images on Commons right now. If you would like to help to place some of those images where they can be found, please do!

Thank you. BotMultichillT (talk) 17:53, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
