- Not sure what you mean by that or how to achieve that. --Dosjetka (talk) 13:52, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
- Any and all uploaded must be sorted into pre-existing categories for order. The actual system and logic behind the names of those categories is somewhat labyrinthine, so your best option is to look for another image showing similar content and look which categories it is sorted into. In this specific case here I would think that the image should be sorted into [[Category:Images (Red Scorpions)]] and [[Category: Images (Space Marines - Colour Schemes)]] because it obviously shows a non-miniature Red Scorpion but also is used as an example for SM colour schemes. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 18:15, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
- Unfortunately the MediaWiki software used does not provide for a dedicated entry field for categories. Categories are automatically displayed at the bottom of the page so while some people for aestethical reasons first leave them out during the upload and edit them in later at the very bottom of the code text it is an accepted practice to simply cram them in after the image description during the upload process to save oneself an additional step and avoid the danger of forgetting to edit them in later. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 19:56, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
- Edit: There is no point in adding a subheading like "Categories" because as said before the categories are displayed by the system "apart" so you would end up with a heading that would not seem to have a follow-up content. --Inquisitor S., Großmeister des Ordo Lexicanum (talk) 19:59, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
