Hi People,

The category structure is english only. There's no way around this without changing the software.
We've been tagging wikipedia categories with the Commonscat template. It's similair to interlanguage links. This makes navigating categories easier; you can use your local wikipedia's category structure and hop over to Commons. Most bigger wiki's have been checked. Statistics are available at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Multichill/Commonscat_stats

Hm... that would be http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Sens_unique.JPG - niced find, but the sade fact is: that's an orpahn! no categorization, no gallery :( we have way too many of those.
At the moment we have about 280.000 uncategorized images (see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_needing_categories ), 95.000 are in galleries so we have about 185.000 orphans. I'm working on a project (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Multichill/Categories) to get more images in categories. First i tagged most uncategorized images and now we're trying to find categories for these images. Currently people are working on a list at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Multichill/Category_suggestions . This is a list of category suggestions based on uncategorized images which are in galleries. We could use some help. You only have to create/find the right category to put the images in from the gallery and tag it with a template (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Populate_category). A bot will come along and fill the category.
