[edit] Question

If we have a picture with public domain license in low resolution is it ok to replace it with the same image in better resolution which can be found on Internet, no matter who scanned it? Regards. --Lošmi (talk) 08:51, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Maybe you can answer me one more question. If I find an image with GNU license on Flickr, can I upload the modified version only, providing a link to original? --Lošmi (talk) 16:36, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hunting of the Snark

Great scans! The Snark is worth it. Perhaps I will use the scans in http://www.snrk.de/HolidaySnark.cgi unless the file size gets too large. (By the way, how is your cat?) --DL5MDA (talk) 16:18, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Could you have a look over at my user page where an editor has been trying to scan period postcards? We get this, which I've downloaded and discovered has some problems. You're the scanner expert. Durova (talk) 01:12, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Need Help

I keep on getting Template:No_license warnings when I am uploading pictures. What exactly am I doing wrong? Your assistance would be appreciated. (Ketabtoon (talk) 17:56, 10 August 2009 (UTC))

Thank you for your reply. Here are some of the pictures. I have uploaded several images and it looks like I am getting the same warning message. I didn't notice the warnings at first. Most of the images that I have uploaded or will be uploading are related to Afghans and Afghanistan. There is no such thing as a copy right law in Afghanistan. I have found some of the pictures in random Afghan sites and blogs. Most of the content in these sites are not their original work and they don't hold a copy right. There is no copy right issue with any of the images that I have uploaded because they are not copy righted.

[edit] Indexing Picture Sets

I noticed that quite a few of your pictures appear to form sets, i.e. belong together in some way (the "Hunting of the Snark" series is an example). So I thought I'd let you know that I have developed a template specifically designed for the much-needed indexing of such sets, Template:PictureSet (announcement on the Village pump here). To see the template in action, look at my own set pictures File:Ornamental Alphabet - 16th Century.svg and File:Platonic Solids Stereo 1 - Tetrahedron.gif. Template pulled from all pictures because of problems with older and standards-incompliant browsers. -- JovanCormac 13:13, 14 August 2009 (UTC) Maybe you can use the template as well. Have a great day. -- JovanCormac 20:34, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Hello Adam Cuerden!

Thank you for providing images to Wikimedia Commons. Commons images are used by editors on many projects in many languages. Each image is put into categories. This helps other editors find them. Please add categories to each image you upload.

To add an image to a category, add the following code to the end of the page.

[[Category:Category Name]]

For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbit of comets, add the following to the image description page:

[[Category:Astronomy diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]

This will make the diagram show up in the categories: Astronomy diagrams, Comets.

For further information on categories read Commons:Categories.

The CommonSense Tool often helps you find the best category for your image.

Here is a gallery of your images. Please check that each image has a category. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the help desk. Thank you.

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful informations about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

[edit] POTY

Hey Adam. I was wondering if you would want to volunteer for this year's POTY committee? We need all the help we can get (and your experience is valuable in this area). Please see Commons:Picture of the Year/2009/Committee/members and assistants if you want to volunteer. Best regards, — Kanonkas // talk // e-mail // 00:08, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

That's great! Thank you for volunteering. — Kanonkas // talk // e-mail // 00:20, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright question

Hello Adam,

I received an e-mail from Haim Watzman asking to add a picture to his wiki page. He asked for the picture to be credited to Debbi Cooper. Can I upload it here under a not free licence or is it a fair-use picture to upload to wikipedia?

[edit] Image restoration request

Hello. One of the contributors recommended you as editor working on the image restoration field. Then you have free time perhaps you could restore these images this image, 1; 2; 3? I would be very grateful! M.K. (talk) 08:13, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

I looked over your works they are impressive! Sad that you are not working anymore, but what happened? Can you give any specifics? M.K. (talk) 20:12, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
That's frustrating :( However I hope, that you will reconsider your decision, as loosing such contributor, like you, is rather irretrievable damage to the project. M.K. (talk) 20:46, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
