Hibiscus[edit]

Hello Nvineeth! Your Image:Hibiscus petal.jpg is not determined to species. Probably you remember, how the plant looked like. Was it Hibiscus rosa-sinensis? Was it any other species of Hibiscus? Now your photo is in Hibiscus as being unclassified. I would like to put it to the right place. Regards --Franz Xaver 07:14, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so I will put the photo into Hibiscus rosa-sinensis. Thanks --Franz Xaver 11:20, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, TheMandarin!
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.

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.
A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Bhuvaneshwari-Devi-1841-1911.jpg, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted.

If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work.

If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Patroller[edit]

I have granted patroller rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use patrol correctly by using it for its intended usage. For information on patrol, see this page. If you do not want to be a patroller anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks.

Spelling error in a file you uploaded[edit]

I was trying to fix this myself, but I eventually realised that I can't since my account is less than 4 days old. There's a spelling error in file:MPEG_Compression_Overview.svg determenistic should be deterministic. I'll probably forget about this before I can edit it, so I'm letting you know about it.

Category discussion warning

Category:Disciples_of_Ramakrishna_Paramahamsa has 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. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category.

In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!
