Hello, Fanx!
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.

File:NZ Parliament seats, 2017.svg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

This, I think, is the solution. The redirect gets deleted, the Labour led scenario then gets uploaded to the empty location (and is then used on all of the election articles), and we have three files: 1, National led scenario; 2, Labour led scenario; and 3, continuing composition of Parliament.

@Tomiĉo: NO!!! It is not the solution! I had already fixed it, and then you go slapping a deletion request on it - making even more problems :( Hint, if you don't have a clue what is going on, kindly leave it alone and let those who actually do have a clue deal with it. You cannot begin to comprehend how fucking pissed off I am at all your simple-minded meddling - back the fuck off and stop making work for me and wasting my fucking time ... all week I've been chasing and trying to fix your (& other well-meaning incompetents') fuckups ... two other idiot-editors, and two useless commons admins, who will apparently rename anything without bothering to check anything, and you've just hit me with another one ... fuck fuck fuckety fuck OFF!

File:Christian Politics NZ.svg[edit]

could you add the ONE Party and maybe change the color of "United NZ" family (Future New Zealand '94, United New Zealand & United Future) like you did for New Conservative Party? Braganza (talk) 09:30, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The party colours belonging to the whole United/Future line of parties have always represented this political grouping. This isn't a wikipedia thing - it was established by the fact that successive iterations of the party leadership associated the party with this [range of] colour, and we cannot retroactively change their history. Similarly, purple is a common representative colour of Christianity. and with the intermingling of all of these minor parties there's nothing to be gained from suggesting a rainbow coalition of half a dozen different colours. Differentiating between the various UF purples and the purple of the factions that merged into United to form United Future serves no purpose.
The purpose of Christian_Politics_NZ.svg is to show "Graphic representation of changes to Christian political parties in New Zealand; showing coalitions, merges, splits and renamings" (and their demise) of a series of arguably interrelated (because of those very mergers and splits) parties over a period when they were politically active ... mostly from the lead-up to MMP to Peter Dunne's retirement, and the last remnant overtly Christian party's leadership attaching themselves to Colin Craig's Conservative Party of New Zealand, which took pains to establish itself as a right-wing party rather than an overt Christian party ... hence the marked change in colour. To be clear, this era is historical, and neither the later Vision NZ nor ONE Party belong here as they both have no connection to a previously established political party (not withstanding Vision's presumed links to Destiny Church and their earlier foray into politics as Destiny New Zealand). Furthermore, Phillip Taito Field's spite party doesn't belong either, as it has no connection to any other party here aside from preliminary talks at its establishment.

thank you for your explanation Braganza (talk) 15:11, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
could you add the New Zealand Conservative Party which merged into the United New Zealand in 1998? Braganza (talk) 11:06, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
