Tip: Categorizing 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:
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.Tip: Categorizing images

File:Rightwingdemo-Amsterdam29-may2006.jpg ... Are you sure?
Could it be this was on the 27th, not the 29th? In that case, it would be the same demo mentioned here and here... For the 29th I can't find any match. -- Buzz-tardis (talk) 04:56, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
- I think you're right; the photo's match and it may well be that the time/date on the old Fuji Finepix was off. 29 is the name of the folder on my PC, but that could well be the date I emptied the SD card. Milliped (talk) 12:56, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
- Could you rename/re-upload, as described in Commons:File renaming? thanks. -- Buzz-tardis (talk) 13:02, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

O jeugd waar zijt gij gebleven
Hi, zie -File:Bestevaerstraat1920.jpg-. Ik heb beeldbank amsterdam bericht, dat deze foto nooit uit 1920 kan komen. A. de straat heette toen nog niet zo en B. de school stond er nog niet. Die school kwam pas in 1923 (bouwopdracht) en werd in 1924 vermoedelijk slechts voor een deel geopend. Ook via Delpher blijkt dat de eerste directeur Jan Nauta pas in 1924 aangesteld werd en wel uit Friesland...... Zie ook hier. De verderop gelegen openbare Rembrandt van Rijnschool werd trouwens nog gebouwd op de hoek van de Wilhelminastraat en Jan van Galenstraat, maar is inmiddels gesloopt (snik).Ceescamel (talk) 14:15, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
Willemsbrug
ARe you sure about the name of the bridge File:WillemsbrugAMS01a.jpg? According to [1]it's a different one. Regards. --Io Herodotus (talk) 10:18, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- Salut Io Herodotis! I am sure about the name, but there are two bridges in Amsterdam called Willemsbrug. This one is nr 151. See here for 151 and here for 454. Merci pour la categorisation! Milliped (talk) 17:08, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you. The two bridges Category:Brug 454, Willemsbrug look different to me.--Io Herodotus (talk) 18:26, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- Just let you know; the name Willemsbrug is withdrawn for bridge 454 starting april 2016 (probably because there was the other bridge which kept it's name). That's why www.bruggenvanamsterdam.nl doesn't mention it anymore. Peter Korrel of that site was or is working for Amsterdam All names that were not official are gone by then of changed). Bridge 454 was Willemsbrug because is was built as a connection between the Vondelpark (for the people) and Willemspark (for the rich). The Vondelpark is still there, but the Willempark is fully built now. It's remembered by the Willemsparkweg, a road named after a park that is not here anymore. Because of this, the article on the dutch wiki is renamed to Brug 454. For here, no changes are necessary. If my recollection is good there was a third Willemsbrug, which name is also withdrawn; it was near the Willemstraat, again in another part of the city.Ceescamel (talk) 16:55, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Haringpakkersbrug
Werk voor een kanoër, kajakker. Onder de brug is een kunstwerk te zien, dat alleen dus per kano of wellicht fiets gefotografeerd kan worden. Hetzelfde geldt wellicht voor de gevelsteen met een verhaal over het Amsterdams Peil (ten zuiden van de brug, langs het fietspad).Groetjes, Ceescamel (talk) 15:35, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
- Hoi Cees! Done, vanaf het fietspad, want in een kajak zit je te laag, en is dat sowieso een heel erg druk punt voor het scheepvaartverkeer. Ik ken het vooral als de plek waar sloeppassagiers hun champagneflessen dumpen :-) Milliped (talk) 07:44, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
Brug 76
Frans Hendricksz. Oetgensbrug. Mocht je nog eens uit varen gaan naar de Prinsengracht, hoek Amstel. Zou je dan een detailfoto willen maken van het verschil in oud en "nieuw" metselwerk. En volgens bij heeft deze brug ook ergens een datumsteen, maar ik weet het niet zeker.Ceescamel (talk) 09:12, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
- Datumsteen zit denk ik aan de Amstelzijde, ik zal kijken. Dat er onderscheidelijk metselwerk te zien zou zijn verbaast me, er zijn veel bruggen in de stad waar je de uitbreiding en het oplappen door de eeuwen heen goed kan zien, maar bij deze staat me daar niets van bij. Maar ik zal er weer eens langspeddelen :-) Milliped (talk) 07:46, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
- Ik was er ook even (au die kuiten); er zitten wel twee stenen aan de Amstelzijde, maar die zijn totaal verweerd, ik kan er niets meer op zien.Ceescamel (talk) 13:49, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
Dr. Samuel de Ranitzbrug
Voor deze brug over de Singelgracht waren toch nieuwe foto's nodig, maar ik fietste er gisteren langs en er is achter de brugpijler een stroomgeleidesysteem aangebracht, typisch een werkje voor een kanoer.....Ceescamel (talk) 10:00, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
- Ik kwam er langsgefietst, en er zit inderdaad een anlage achter, typisch, ik weet van geen andere brug in Amsterdam die zoiets heeft. Ik zal het binnenkort ook nog eens vanaf het water fotograferen. Milliped (talk) 08:02, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- Dank voor je mooie foto's; de Ad Grimmonbrug heeft inmiddels een soortgelijk system. Ik heb de aannemer en ontwerper gebeld (moest toch wat); je kan ze vaker tegenkomen in de stad, zie het verhaal bij de Ad Grimmonbrug.Ceescamel (talk) 12:13, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
NDSM-werf?
Beste Milliped,
De donor van de luchtfoto's van NIMH, waar jij ook aan werkte (dank!, o.a. NDSM-werf), meelde me vandaag dat het om Rotterdam gaat! Ik zit te turen naar foto's van de NDSM, maar herken hem niet. Jij wel? Zo niet, weet je misschien welke haven het in Rotterdam zou kunnen zijn? Groeten, Hansmuller (talk) 19:13, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
- Ik was dan knap abuis. Het Prins Hendrikdok №1 hoorde niet bij de NDSM, maar bij de RDM (zie hier). Ik zou dan verwachten dat de plaat ook in de omgeving van de RDM op de Heyplaat genomen is. Ik meen me te herinneren dat er op Commons meer luchtfoto's (andere bron dan NIMH) van de haven van Rotterdam voor de oorlog te vinden zijn, daar kan het misschien geverifieerd worden. De havenvorm doet sterk het vermoeden rijzen dat dit de Heyplaat is. (Ik zou het misschien een Rotterdammer vragen, ik ben de foto's van Amsterdam afgegaan, daar ben ik wat meer thuis :-) Milliped (talk) 19:42, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
- Ping collega User:Stunteltje trouwens, kan jij dit thuisbrengen? Milliped (talk) 19:46, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
- Eerlijk gezegd: neen. En ik kan me uiteraard nog goed herinneren dat er dokken lagen in de dokhaven, maar daarmee was dat de dokhaven op Charlois en niet zozeer bij droogdok zelf. De overzichtsfoto kan ik niet thuisbrengen, want de afbouwkraan (die hele lange) herken ik niet. Daar stond ik zelf op toen bij droogdok de Rotterdam te water ging en die kwam er naast te liggen. (Met een buurman die mij herkende en dat verklapte aan mijn ouders.) --Stunteltje (talk) 06:04, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
