Hi Myrtleship,
why do you upload images and a few minutes later request their deletion? --Túrelio (talk) 12:02, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

They were not properly named
Files can be renamed. What filename should File:Narsapurlutheran.jpg have? --Túrelio (talk) 15:18, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Can you please rename in as NarsapurLutheranchurchoutsideview. Thanks--Myrtleship (talk) 15:24, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could you add the real photo date for File:Teluguchristianwomenwithmissionaries.png; it was surely not shot today. --Túrelio (talk) 15:20, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this image File:Stjohnschurchsecunderabad1890.png is from 1890, as suggested by the filename, it was surely not shot by you. Who is the real photographer? When did he/she die? --Túrelio (talk) 15:19, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please add the real photo date to File:Csiinaugurationmedakprocession.png. --Túrelio (talk) 15:22, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]


File:Teluguchristianwomenwithmissionaries.png looks like it was taken in the 1930s, and so you are almost certainly not the photographer... AnonMoos (talk) 21:00, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These pictures are in Public Domain since they are from circa 1890 and copyrights have expired. They were shot by Lala Deen Dayal who died in 1905. A couple are from old photographs I found in my family posessions. --Myrtleship (talk) 15:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Myrtleship!
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.

Own work ?[edit]

Hi! I just noticed that a file was transfered from en-wiki to Commons and you stated that it was own work. I restored the information from en-wiki here [1]. Please make sure you only add "own work" to files where you took the picture yourself. We have tools to help transfer files from other wikis. For example http://toolserver.org/~magnus/commonshelper.php. It would be nice if you could check your uploads and check if you added the correct information to the files. If you have copied the files from somewhere else please add a link to the source. --MGA73 (talk) 20:09, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
