A message to a user when adding one category (i.e., user has not specified his/her country of residence):

'''User category'''
Hi! Your user page has been added to a [[:Category:Hitchhikers]] since this is a standard categorization for hitchhikers on hitchwiki.org (see [[Category talk:Hitchhikers|this discussion here]] for the reasons of doing so). If you want to be categorized by country, too, chose the country of your current residence from the categories on [[:Category:Hitchhikers]] page (or create your own one if the country of your current location is not on the list). In case you need help with that please write about it [[Category talk:Hitchhikers|here]]).
Happy hitching,
The hitchwiki team
P.S. you can delete this message if you want.

'''User categories'''
Hi! '''Category:Hitchhikers in ((country of residence))''' and '''Category:Hitchhikers''' have been added to your profile page since this is a standard categorization for hitchhikers on hitchwiki.org (see [[Category talk:Hitchhikers|this discussion here]] for the reasons of doing so). If for some reason you don't want to be categorized by country, feel free to delete country category on your page leaving only a standard Category:Hitchhikers. We hope you don't mind though.
Happy hitching,

==More detailed categorization for media files==
I have a strong urge to categorize in a more detailed way all these hitchhikers' pictures [http://hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=Category:Hitchhikers&oldid=26676 currently] piling up under one general '''Category:Hitchhikers'''. I would love to see them rather categorized by '''Hitchhikers in {specific country}''' if it is possible to see it from a file description. It can come in hand when one needs a picture for the country/city page. At the same time, [[Special:UncategorizedImages|uncategorized images]] could be also put into these and other (countries, etc.) categories.
: Usually, we try to put images in Category:Hitchhikers AND Category:Countryname. See [[:Category:Germany]] for an example. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 08:38, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
:: Yes. However, we haven't had categories '''Category:Hitchhikers in {specific country}''' before. So basically, we can chose now: A) to continue categorizing many images with hitchhikers under the same category '''Category:Hitchhikers''' (plus adding them to the specific country category); or B) instead of current two categories (of which one is VERY general) to apply one, more detailed one '''Category:Hitchhikers in {specific country}'''. I see the second choice rather more logical. --[[User:Sigurdas|Sigurdas]] 10:56, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
::: Yes. I like A, as we did it before. Otherwise it will be impossible to have a list of all hitchhikers pictures. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 12:19, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
