Categories and descriptions
[edit]Hi Ubforty, did you understand that you necessarily must categorize your images to make them findable for other users? See Commons:Categories. Keep in mind that pure uploading of images (without giving them categories) doesn't make any sense. Also give good descriptions to your images. So that everyone can read where and of what you took the image! (There is of course no need to repeat the exif data in the description.) Greetings, -- Ies (talk) 06:10, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
