Hello, Delusion23!
Tip: Add categories to your images

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:

Uploadwizard-categories.png

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.

Apology[edit]

Hello Delusion23. Please see edits 1, 2, 3, 4 and many more from 3 October 2011. None of them have border with South Sudan. My block prevented you to keep doing it. For me it looked at the time as some kind of vanadalizm. But it is only your mistake I accept it and ask you to be more cerful next. Thanks for your cooperation. Geagea (talk) 00:30, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Excuse me but why did you post a warning on my talk page? It's customary to at least give a reason when you do this. If you don't give a reason I shall remove it. Cheers. Delusion23 (talk) 23:11, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
I see that you have reverted all of the edits I made adding files to this category: Category:Maps needing South Sudan political boundaries. All of the maps I added need updating with the borders of South Sudan which became independent in July. This category was created so that they may be grouped together and updated by those with the ability to do so. This forms part of the Category:Maps needing amended boundaries. I think you overreacted in giving me a level 4 vandalism warning without a stated reason. Unless there is something wrong with this category, I'll revert your reverts tomorrow. Cheers again. Delusion23 (talk) 23:23, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi, Geagea. I think there has been a misunderstanding here. The Category:Maps needing South Sudan political boundaries is not for countries that have borders with South Sudan. It's for every image that needs updating with the fact that South Sudan and Sudan now have a border. For example, in images 1, 2, 3 and 4 you can see that the image covers the whole of Africa, not just Georgia, Afghanistan or Iran. In these images, Sudan is represented as it was before the independence of South Sudan. It is this which needs updating. Sorry that I didn't explain myself well earlier. The links to the categories didn't show up. I'll revert the reverts now. Cheers :) Delusion23 (talk) 10:01, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

I apologize for my misunderstanding and for blocking you for two hours. I removed the vandalism warning from your talk page. Pleas keep doing the good warking. Geagea (talk) 10:12, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

No worries, you too. Glad we got this sorted out. :) Delusion23 (talk) 10:14, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

South Sudan boundaries[edit]

Hello there,
Could I ask that you be more careful when adding Category:Maps needing South Sudan political boundaries to files. Not all maps showing undivided Sudan need South Sudan; when the map shows a historic situation. For example you added it to File:Libya Sahel.png, which showed the founding member states of the Community of Sahara-Sahel states, as it was founded in 1998. Thanks, Quintucket (talk) 02:12, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons features pictures of all flavors.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like.

File:Countries driving on the left or right 1900.svg[edit]

Hello.

This is my last request from you for this year.

Can you make these corrections in File:Countries driving on the left or right 1900.svg?

In 1900, these places drove on the left and thus need to be colored in blue:

  • Sweden
  • Finland
  • Austro-Hungarian Empire
  • Bosnia
  • Portuguese Timor (East Timor)
  • South Sudan (then part of Anglo-Egyptian Sudan)
  • Aden Colony (South Yemen)
  • Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia

In 1900, these places drove on the right and thus need to be colored in red:

  • Brazil
  • Paraguay
  • South Korea (then part of a unified Korea)

Please see the articles en:Left- and right-hand traffic and en:List of countries with left-hand traffic and the sources.

Thank you.

31.200.11.49 19:40, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

I'm afraid this goes beyond my skill with the free Inkscape software. I know how to change colours, but I don't know how to add new borders. Perhaps the Map workshop will be able to help you? Cheers, DelUsion23 (talk) 19:50, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
