[edit] Commons people with access to OTRS

A partial list of OTRS volunteers who are administrators on Commons is at m:OTRS/personnel (look for people with a "Y" in the "Commons" column.). Some OTRS volunteers can also be found on Category:Commons OTRS volunteers.

[edit] Is this template too complicated?

Hi,

Is this template too complicated? For instant, what is the function of the parameter "freeform" (idem for "debug") ?

The following code would be easier (limiting itself to the parameter ticket, id, or 1), wouldn't it ?

The permission for use of this work has been archived in the Wikimedia OTRS system; it is available <template error: no id or ticket is specified>Category:Items missing OTRS ticket ID for users with an OTRS account. To confirm the permission, please contact someone with an OTRS account.

Yes, it is too complicated. Unfortunately this is I think because different wikis use different parameters for this and the template tries to support them all. I have no idea what the freeform thing is. I'll check how this template is used and see whether I can simplify it. -- Bryan (talk to me) 19:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template:ConfirmationOTRS

Is there anything stopping a bot from converting the image pages now using the deprecated {{ConfirmationOTRS}} to use {{PermissionOTRS}} instead? /Lokal_Profil 01:12, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Working on it.. Rocket000 09:44, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
And ✓ Done. Rocket000 12:33, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. /Lokal_Profil 00:06, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Proposal

It would be nice if there was an optional field to add details. As in [1] -- Drini 20:14, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Would it be possible to explain your wish more specific? I kind of understand what you would like to have, but it would be easier to understand if you write us more details. Thank you, my name 22:34, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
P.S.: Please don't forget to sign your contributions on talk pages such as this one.

The proposal is to add a "note" field. The first 2 lines on the linked exampel are what we have now (links to the otrs ticket). The 3rd line is the proposal which could be used to add notes like "permission was given under the license XY for reuse all content from site ABC") that one is a bit simplist, but more examples could be constructed (it's always good to have the ability to add details when needed) -- Drini 20:14, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Example:

El permiso para el uso de esta obra se ha recibido en el sistema OTRS de Wikimedia. (ticket en OTRS).
Si necesitas verificar el permiso, consulta a uno de los asistentes de OTRS.
  • Permiso para usar material del sitio www.sinviola.com.ar bajo la licencia GFDL. -- m:drini 20:28 21 jun 2008 (UTC)

comes from

{{PermissionOTRS|
    |ticket=https://secure.wikimedia.org/otrs/index.pl?Action=AgentTicketZoom&TicketID=1578290
    |nota=Permiso para usar material del sitio www.sinviola.com.ar bajo la licencia GFDL. -- m:drini  20:28 21 jun 2008 (UTC) }}

-- Drini 20:16, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

{{PermissionOTRS}} is supposed to be used inside {{Information}}. You would leave your note elsewhere inside that Information template, probably above or below the "PermissionOTRS" which is in the "Permission" section. Cbrown1023 talk 20:00, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
I think Drini's idea is very good: it increases transparency and makes life simpler for those without OTRS access. Many of us use the PermissionOTRS gadget that admits only introduction of the link, so adding further description would mean a second edit on the page; the script could be, however, adapted so two consecutive windows appear (first the link, then the short description). I don't know if you're using something like that already on es.wiki or if it's all done manually. Patrícia msg 14:44, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Add a tickmark to the template

I was confused recently by this template. I thought it meant that somebody had only submitted an ticket, not that it had also been confirmed. The reintroduction of a green checkmark icon of some kind would make things far clearer, as would a change in wording/emphasis of "archived"; perhaps replacing it with "verified and archived". --Tom Edwards (talk) 11:31, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, it's a very good point to replace "archived" in "verified and archived". For the icon, I don't think a checkmark icon is clearer than the OTRS logo. And this logo is very useful to identify an OTRS permission on first glance.--Bapti 15:24, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for that. Perhaps I'm nitpicking here, but it would be better to highlight only the words "verified and archived" (that way they stand out against the supporting text).
Also, I wasn't very clear about what I had in mind for the image. See the replacement above-left. :-) --Tom Edwards (talk) 11:24, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
it would be better to highlight only the words "verified and archived"
Yeah, maybe it's better to higligt only "verified and archived".
For the picture, I see your point but i think it's quite dissapointed to strike the OTRS logo with a green checkmark. Perhaps, it would make more sens to have the checkmark on the left for exemple instead of over the logo.--Bapti 18:43, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
I think the current version is fine. No need to change the images. - Rjd0060 (talk) 18:47, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
I agree with Rjd0060 (talk contribs). Cirt (talk) 18:56, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Link to people with an account

The template says "To confirm the permission, please contact someone with an OTRS account.".

I propose changing the link to Category:Commons OTRS volunteers for obvious reasons. Any reason not to? - Rjd0060 (talk) 19:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

I agree with this change especially as there is a link to m:OTRS/personnel on Category:Commons OTRS volunteers :)--Bapti 20:45, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Without objection, motion carried. Cirt (talk) 16:14, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, hope there is no problem with that. I think it just makes sense to do it that way. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:54, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Autotranslation

This template is going to be hard to auto translate. Anyone feels like he can pull this one of? Multichill (talk) 21:55, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Add link to OTRS Noticeboard

I'd like to replace

It is available for users with an OTRS account. To confirm the permission, please contact someone with an OTRS account.

with

It is available for users with an OTRS account. To confirm the permission, please contact someone with an OTRS account or leave a note at the OTRS noticeboard.

Any objections? - Rjd0060 (talk) 03:52, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Sounds good. Cirt (talk) 04:17, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
No objections, so ✓ Done. See here. - Rjd0060 (talk) 01:51, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
