[edit] Londoneye

I have participated on Commons for some time, taking part in deletion discussions and uploading a few of my own images. I know what {{GFDL}} and the various Creative Commons licenses mean, and that all Commons images must be licensed to allow commercial use and derivatives, with of course due acknowledgement if the license is not unconditional PD. I've even looked into Panoramafreiheit.--Londoneye (talk) 10:51, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

    • Prior to her making this request I was in (brief) email contact with Londoneye. I have also been aware of the situation on EnWP and other places, and personally believe that the case upon which she was blocked is flimsy, to say the least. I would encourage those participating to read Poetlister's Wikiquote RfB, which was in somewhat similar circumstances to this request (though not of the same magnitude, obviously), and where Lar (admin, 'crat, CU, oversight here), Alison (admin here), and FloNight (admin here) commented to the extent that the candidate's work on the wiki in question (this one) should take precedence, and that the accusations against the candidate are questionable. —Giggy 23:03, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

    • My problem with granting this position is not whether or not you committed sockpuppetry on the English Wikipedia. What I find a problem though is to determine whether you have been honest or not. This position essentially means that we trust you on your word how an image is licensed on Flickr. Given that your history on Commons is clean I think we can go forward and grant you the status despite what has or has not happened in the past. -- Bryan (talk to me) 20:02, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
  • Symbol support vote.svg Support I looked through the old content at en-wiki and concluded there's nothing there that raises concerns for me about your ability to do this job here. In the year-plus since the events on en, you've continued to be a productive contributor here who seems to have a firm grasp on licensing issues. While I know that others may disagree, I think this is enough to trust you with handling Flickr images. --jonny-mt 12:19, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Anonymous101

I'm an admin at enwikinews, where I have participated in many image copyright related deletion requests. I understand copyright to the extent that I can review images (Derivative works and commercial use must be permitted so cc-by and cc-by-sa are allowed but not cc-nc cc-by-nc, cc-by-nd, cc-by-nc-sa or cc-by-nc-nd). I also now have a reasonable understanding of derivative works and Freedom of Panorama etc. . Anonymous101 (talk) 16:47, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

  • Roche.svg Rock On! I think the oppose in the last request was quite unfair; you were not to know that the deletion request that was raised against you was about "authentic Bulgarian folk art". You also had the good sense to withdraw the request when your mistake was pointed out to you. Everything I have seen of you so far shows that you care about the project, understand our licensing requirements, and care to keep us free of copyright violations. Lewis Collard!

[edit] User:Moshin

  • Moshin (talk · contributions) - Hi I want to be clarified as a trusted user on Commons. I have uploaded many images for the work of Wikipedia. I know most of the rules on when to upload an image, viewing it copyright status and whether it meets any of the Commons Licenses. I certainly know how to upload images from Flickr, knowing which images go under the Flickr license. There are currently two photo licenses which Wikimedia accepts from Flickr which is, Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons and Attribution Creative Commons. And currently I do have a account on the site, so I know how things work. It would be great to review the images from Flickr and choosing whether it is correct or not, thank you! (I have an account on Wikipedia: Mohsin.)
  • Symbol oppose vote.svg Contra Apologies, but uploads like this and this give me pause and seem to indicate an incomplete grasp of concepts/issues such as derivative works, proper attribution and diligent license vetting (the latter is a copyvio); Flickrreview requires not only knowledge of what licenses are acceptable, but the ability to scrutinize Flickrwashing, derivatives, etc. ЭLСОВВОLД talk 18:57, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:Fordmadoxfraud

  • Fordmadoxfraud (talk · contributions) - I suppose this is the page I want to be on. I just tried to use a template to rename an image (one that I had uploaded, to boot), and was informed by betacommandbot that it couldn't be done automatically because I wasn't a "trusted user", which is a little irritating. There doesn't seem to be a lot of explication on Commons about what, specifically, a trusted user is, but I guess it's sort of semi-admin status of some sort? Or are there different trusted users for different tasks? At any rate, this was the only concrete reference I could find. And sure, what the hell, I could help out with Flickr review as well. I've been looking to get more involved with Commons on a meta level anyway. Ford MF (talk) 15:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment. Yeah thanks. It's still irritating that Commons might tell you you can't do something because you're not a trusted user but then entering "trusted user" as a search term brings up nothing. Anyway, why not, while I'm still here, continue with this process. I wasn't kidding about wanting to become more involved with Commons on a Meta level. Ford MF (talk) 21:57, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Why not, indeed! A random sampling of your uploads looks good. I'm concerned about an apparent lack of "reviewing experience" (e.g. deleted contribs or deletion discussions). May I ask what your determination would be if this image were uploaded and you came across it for Flickr review? ЭLСОВВОLД talk 01:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
  • I reckon I'd make sure it was appropriately tagged CC-by-2.0, drop a flickrreview template on the page to note that I had checked it, and send it on its way. It appears to be a completely legit upload by that user (appropriately huge image size; contemporaneous with the rest of his photostream; taken with the same camera), and requires only a quick glance to make sure the license on Commons is in harmony with that on Flickr. Ford MF (talk) 05:54, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

    No, even I am not lame enough to joke about something like this. Like another game player, MBisanz is here simply to gain adminship. He's the kind who'd rather ban someone than improve the project. He is unfriendly, and like the user just mentioned, appears to enjoy making editors "lower" than himself feel small. Normally, I wouldn't be so harsh on something as basic as flickr review, but I fear this is simply a step up to adminship.

    Erm, no. I don't make such comments about people unless I'm certain. You'll notice how I don't question your "opinion" above, as much as I disagree with it. This user has demonstrated quite successfully on enwiki (I don't know about here) that he is untrustworthy and unsuited. His canvassing to get support for his Foundation wiki application was utterly ridiculous, and shows incredibly poor judgement. Additionally, as I already noted, he'd rather ban a featured article writer than write one himself. I know these are nothing to do with flickr reviewing (which in itself is a simple task), but the fact is, this is simply a step up the commons ladder. He needs to stay right on the bottom rung. Majorly talk 00:59, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
    Thank you for your comments Majorly. Just to clarify about the Foundation wiki application. I applied for an account to help overhaul their image tagging system. Sean Whitton who manages account requests for the wmfwiki said I needed more endorsements from people he knew before he could judge if I should be given access [1]. I said I would try to find some people who could vouch for my reputation [2] and asked several individuals I had worked with at enwp if they would comment on my reputation. They did, Sean reviewed the comments, and granted me access to the wmfwiki.
    In any event, I have reviewed the Wikipedia canvassing guidelines (I couldn't seem to find a local guideline) and intend to continue following the prohibition against canvassing here at Commons. I should note that of the 5 individuals to support this request, one I have never heard of before, another I have rarely if ever interacted with, a third I opposed than neutraled his en.wiki RFA, a fourth I haven't interacted with in 8 months, and the fifth I know from enwiki but wasn't even following him enough here at commons to know he recently had an RFA.

  • Symbol support vote.svg Support — I know this user from Enwp. Does a great deal of image work there, and he was granted an account on the foundation wiki specifically to deal with images and image licensing issues. I see no reason not to give the user the ability to help with flickr reviewing. - Rjd0060 (talk) 22:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

  • Symbol support vote.svg Support Trusted user with the project in his best interests. MBisanz has a ton of experience dealing with images on a wide range of Wikimedia projects, and as such would be a asset to this one. Tiptoety talk 23:57, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Promoted. Needless to say I hope MBisanz takes on board any advice given here, and (as always) ensures Commons content policies are upheld. Remember there are plenty of people around who are happy to help. Giggy (talk) 07:24, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Meanwhile I have uploaded hundreds of flickr images which where all conform to wikimedia (see my Gallery), so perhaps you will include me as a Flickr reviewer --Ceterum censeo capitalismum esse delendam (talk) 00:44, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

  • Pictogram voting comment.svg Comment I see a few notices and deletion requests on your talk page, some that are not too long ago. Maybe some of those were not such a big deal but perhaps you could explain a couple of them? Cirt (talk) 18:49, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
  • doubt - i see on your talk page things that makes me think you don't know flickr well enough. Maybe later on? Sterkebaktalk 18:56, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

I wouldn't pretend to be a copyright maven, or even terribly clued up on every aspect of Commons policy, but I think I could review Flickr images correctly. If it's relevant, I don't have a Flickr account. Angus McLellan (Talk) 21:14, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:J.smith

I've been messing around with copyright issues on Wikipedia and over here on Commons for some time now. I'm still learning about copyright issues in regards to images, but I think I understand the basics of all the major issues. And besides, Kanonkas says I should get off my lazy rump! :) J.smith (talk) 19:18, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

On a related note, I'm an admin on en-wiki and a volunteer with OTRS. J.smith (talk) 19:23, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
  • Hmm, strong content work, understanding pof policy, OTRS-hand, sounds like this would be another task you could help at, I support. MBisanz talk 19:28, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
