For your contributions to Ongoing Photo contest Wiki Loves Vizag 2024. iMahesh (talk) 06:31, 9 February 2024 (UTC) |

Overcategorization
[edit]Hi:
You seem to make do mass uploads with very generic categories. Could you restrain the number of categories in your uploads and use the most precise sub-category. For instance, a mother-category such as Category:Nature should not be used as it too vague. If you upload a picture of waves crashing on a beach, use the category Category:Water waves or better Category:Crashing waves, not "Nature".
