Hello, TFCforever!
 
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.

Hello TFCForever! Thank you for all your help - the categorisation of the images helps immensely. Although I am still quite new to the wikiverse, every day I appreciate the network of administrators and contributors more and more, and I find it amazing how well self-regulation works! I will make sure that all future image uploads go through the Supa Strika category. Thanks again! 196.31.70.10 11:14, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

If you want to redefine the scope, why leave the old description and add no new categories? Shouldn't the moved images be placed in a new category for the club? Richard001 (talk) 21:09, 27 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

SVG conversion made per your request, translation still needed

edit

See Commons:Graphic_Lab/Illustration_workshop#Integration. I made an SVG conversion, but you need to supply a translation. Thanks. -Andrew c (talk) 14:04, 24 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • Sorry about the delay, but here's the translation into English...

Autokäufer = Car (automobile) buyers

Garagisten = Garage owners

Autoimporteure = Car (automobile) importers

Autohersteller = Car (automobile) manufacturers

Zulieferer = Suppliers

Rohstoffproduzenten = Commodity (primary) producers

Vertika = Vertical

Horizonta = Horizontal

Vorwarts = Forwards

Ruckwarts = Backwards

Also, I am not skilled enough with a program like Inkscape to insert the English words into the image. I am willing to learn, but I also don't want to waste the time of anyone here at the graphics lab. Thanks so much for all your work!

TFCforever (talk) 14:33, 24 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

You can do it with a text editor (such as notepad). The XML coding may be a bit overwhelming when you first look at it, but if you do a simple find and replace for the German word for English, you can tackle it that way. Just FYI. I'm more than glad to make the English version now. -Andrew c (talk) 16:05, 24 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, just give it a shot. If you want to create a Spanish language version, or any other language. Just try it out. Open it in Notepad (or an equivalent). And it shouldn't be that hard to scroll down and locate the section that has "Garage owners" "Car importers" etc, and just make a one for one replacement, then save it and upload it under a new file name. If you run into any problems or have other questions, I'd be glad to help (assuming this is something you'd like to try one day. It's ok if you don't). That said, I left out the parenthetical parts of your translation due to space limitations. If you feel like any of the phrases could be reworded, or need the parentheticals, I'd be more than happy to make those changes (or again, you can try it yourself, if you are up to it!) Thanks for working on the translations. -Andrew c (talk) 01:22, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Adding Files like File:Img-071129152243-0001.png‎ to Cat:Files with errors is pretty useless: The respective PNG files don't have any actual errors; it's a temporary limit of the mediawiki renderer for resource reasons & adding Category:Files with errors doesn't really justify the removal of {{Uncategorized}}--DieBuche (talk) 10:21, 25 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Category changes

edit

I see you've made a great many category changes using HotCat. I suggest you take a look at AWB, which makes repetitive changes to items in categories and other lists much faster than HotCat. Its speed comes primarily from the fact that it loads each page only once and then can search, search and replace, or many other things. When you're done with a page and hit SAVE, the next page in the list loads immediately.

It requires permission, but, given your experience, I'd be happy to put you on the list if you'd like to try it.

I thought about asking you to think about putting in an RfA. We badly need help and anyone who can do 100,000 Commons edits and have only 25 items on his or her talk pages has got to be both competent and mellow. I note, though, that you've walked a very narrow path here, with virtually all of your edits on Files and Cats. If you ever get the urge to spread out a little, drop me a note.      Jim . . . .

Thank you for your contributions. Your image or other content, File:Equipos de futbol en costa rica.jpg, was recently deleted, or will soon be deleted, in accordance with our process and policies, because it was not, or is not, within our scope. Please review our project scope, but in short, Commons is _targeted at educational media files including photographs, diagrams, animations, music, spoken text and video clips. The expression “educational” is to be understood according to its broad meaning of “providing knowledge; instructional or informative”. Wikimedia Commons does not contain text articles like encyclopedia articles, textbooks, news, word definitions and such. Each of these other kinds of content have their own projects: Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary and Wikiquote. If the content seems to fit the scope of one of those other projects, please consider contributing it there. Otherwise, consider an alternative outlet. If you think that the deletion was in error because the contribution really was in scope, you can appeal it at Commons:Undeletion requests, giving a reason why it fits our scope to help others evaluate the matter.

CfD for College athletic program categories

Category discussion notification Categories for college athletic programs have been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution.

Image transfer from Wikipedia to Commons

edit

Hello TFCforever!

Thanks a lot for your contributions! If you transfer images from Wikipedia to Commons, please use this tool. This tool retains all relevant information with correct sourcing and licencing. And by the way it makes file transfers faster and easier for the uploader.

Thank you for your support! Greetings, High Contrast (talk) 17:28, 23 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, High Contrast. Yes, I use Commonshelper all the time. Did I make a mistake using it or am I using it incorrectly? TFCforever (talk) 17:32, 23 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

please use the ++-sign (on the left), which allows to change, remove or add multiple categorys. --Akkakk (talk) 20:48, 25 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yes, thanks for the reminder: I try to use it, but I forget to use it sometimes. I'll try harder to remember. TFCforever (talk) 00:55, 26 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello TFCforever, such edit is not necessary. Hidden Cats (normally?) do not replace a Uncategorized tag. The category “JPG files with errors” is redundant to “Files with errors”. -- πϵρήλιο 20:35, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Normally, yes, but if a file is broken and has no information what should it be categorized under? I'm just trying to help clear out the uncategorized backlog and would like to move it to an appropriate category. The only one that seems to fit is "files with errors": if there is something else to categorize it under, than please let me know, but I don't think restoring its uncategorized tag is helpful. Thanks and take care! TFCforever (talk) 20:43, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Ok good, normally “completely” broken files would “be deleted”. I mean this is definitely a candidate. So we make a request!? -- πϵρήλιο 21:46, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
That sounds good, I think we should. Viel dank! TFCforever (talk) 22:14, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
...and I just did apply for a speedy deletion. Thanks for chatting about that file with me: in the end, I think we've done the right thing. I'll see you around! TFCforever (talk) 22:18, 1 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

FC or F.C.

edit

Hello TFCforever. Can you please stop moving Players of Team FC to players of Team F.C., as you have done with Category:Players of Chelsea F.C. as you can see from Category:Association football players by team in England, the convention is to leave out the full stops with these categories. Personally I don't mind whether we use FC or F.C. but I don't think we should use a mixture as this leads to confusion and difficulty when creating player categories. Thanks --Kafuffle (talk) 15:03, 3 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I noticed that there were a couple files and categories in a redirected category and I was trying to help the bots out a bit. I think that this category may be the bigger problem: it is being redirected to the category with full stops. To solve the problem, I think you'll need to reverse the current situation and redirect "Players of Chelsea F.C." to "Players of Chelsea FC" (if you have consensus to do so, of course). Thanks for stopping to chat and take care! TFCforever (talk) 19:22, 5 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
