ToDo
[edit]- 23 June 2010
- Category:Carter's Steam Fair needs creating. Four images available currently.
- Category:Great Dorset Steam Fair needs populating -- whole raft of images arrived from Geograph (plus others already here)
- 25 May 2010
- Category:Canals in England is full to bursting, yet plenty subcats available -- many pics copied from Geograph without specific canal cat added. Hours of endless fun!
- 09 Sept 2009
- Consider renaming/moving categories:
- Category:PeterJewell Gallery --> Category:Photographs by PeterJewell
- Category:PeterJewell Uploads Gallery --> Category:Files uploaded by PeterJewell
- Category:PeterJewell Gallery (from Geograph) --> Category:Files uploaded from Geograph by PeterJewell
- These are all now hidden, and appear in Category:User categories, but new names would (probably) be more consistent with other users
- 27 Jan 2009
- Category:Kew Bridge Steam Museum – red sub-cats Category:Preserved steam, and Category:Waterworks in London have been removed
- 03 Nov 2008
- Create Category:Steam road vehicles by brand and move all the manufacturer cats into it
- Then check each cat has the same membership as Category:Burrell vehicles
- Also check Category:Vehicles by brand in case any steam manufacturers are missed!
- Earlier
- Create and populate cat for 'early steam vehicles' (look in the usual places plus Steam Buses)
- Search through Category:Steam road vehicles for traction engines and the like, and categorise accordingly
- Ditto for Category:Steam engines
- Ditto for Steam Engines in Category:Machines
- Ditto for Category:Models, which is over-flowing -- need to create new sub-cats as has been done for Steam Wagons
- Start uploading the 100's of pics you've got in your drawer...
18 May 2007 - New cats created: Category:Steam locomobiles and Category:Steam trucks. Both should be redirected ('Steam Trucks' is a little-used phrase - steam lorry and steam wagon is far more widespread - see WP Truck article talk page!)
Also created: Foden vehicles, sentinel vehicles, etc Update list below to suit.
- (28 Aug 2007) - noticed some pics in Category:Cranes of a model traction engine with crane fitted...
See User:TwoWings (sub-pages)

[edit]Recreated cat-redirects (Mar 2009)
[edit]Note that Category:Steam road vehicles has been renamed Category:Steam-powered road vehicles. The above text has not been amended to suit.
- Category:Steam tractors – redirects to Category:Steam-powered tractors
- Category:Steam buses – redirects to Category:Steam-powered buses
- Category:Steam cars – redirects to Category:Steam-powered automobiles
- Category:Steam wagons – redirects to Category:Steam-powered wagons
These two were originally pointing to 'vehicles':
- Category:Steam lorries – redirects to Category:Steam-powered wagons
- Category:Steam trucks – redirects to Category:Steam-powered wagons
Added the following 'explanation' on the talk page for these redirects... The term "steam wagon" is widely used in the English-speaking world to identify goods vehicles powered by a steam engine. However, this simplification may not be apparent to users whose native tongue is not English, hence the category redirect.
Suggested categories
[edit]Also see proposed hierarchy, below.
- Category:Steam fairground rides
- Category:Steam-powered agriculture – note Category:Threshing machines already exists

UK Copyright Law (statues, etc)
[edit]Pictures of statues and other 3D "works of artistic craftsmanship", in a public place (or a place 'open to the public', even if an entry fee is required) MAY be uploaded to Commons. Artistic craftsmanship implies that the creator was both artist and craftsman, and the intention was to create a work of art; this intention should be 'obvious'. Other acceptable items include such as: hand-painted tiles, wrought iron gates, cutlery, needlework, etc.
Uploading pictures of signs, paintings, maps, advertising posters, murals and similar 2D media -- even if displayed in a public place -- is NOT permitted unless suitable permission is obtained from the copyright holder.
The explanation, and the differences, may be found here: Commons:Freedom of panorama#United Kingdom.
It may be worth adding a note -- to a relevant category or image file -- that links to the same explanation, as is done for Category:Bekonscot.
