[edit] Category specificity (avoid redundant supercategories)

If an image is correctly tagged with "Category SVG flags", it shouldn't be also be tagged "Category SVG". AnonMoos 23:53, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, okay, I'm sorry. I didn't know that. Thank you - it won't happen again. Doodle-doo Ħ 13:44, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Réponse

Bonjour. Vous avez laissé un message sur mon UserTalk (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Gilles_Ciment), que je ne comprends pas bien. Je ne sais pas de quels permis il s'agit, et je suis donc bien embarrassé pour vous répondre. Je ne suis pas très au fait des pratiques de Wikimedia Commons. J'ai placé cette image, qui m'appartient, pour utilisation libre de droits par tous. Cordialement, Gilles Ciment

[edit] Image:Camp marmal02.JPG

I tried to remove the tilt. I'm not 100% sure it succeeded. The horizon is somewhat vague on the right making it difficult to see where exacltly the horizon is. S Sepp 14:58, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Note to self:

Translate Image:Quintana.jpg from portuguese to english and maybe french. Also, add infobox. Doodle-doo Ħ 18:16, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Editing

I used Adobe Photoshop CS2 with a cloning tool, but you can use any editing software that has a cloning tool. --Digon3 ^talk 14:36, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Image:Infermir.jpg

Thank you for being so kind to me, Doodledoo (I did saw your comment). I do know how to make animation. I'm not sure I'd like to spend time on it. I really do not care so much about any of my images getting an FP status. My goal is to bring some new topics to FP. That's why I nominate underwater, helicopter and so on images. Thank you.--Mbz1 22:05, 30 September 2007 (UTC)Mbz1

Thank you,Doodledoo. No, I'm not with the press. I'm not a professional photographer. I have not sold any of my images ever (Few people wanted to buy my images, but I like to give them away for free).My images were published in few magazines, newspapers and books around the world. One of my images was exhibited in UN in Vienna and than in few museums in USA. I was offered to make exhibit of my images in San Francisco planetarium, but I refused. It was too expensive to print and to frame them. Btw at least 2 of my images, which are going to be published in a near feature were opposed FP status at Wikipedia. It would have been funny, if it were not so sad.--Mbz1 22:23, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, in my opinion Wikipedia is first of all encyclopedia. I'm taking images of rare and interesting atmospheric optics phenomena that in my opinion would have made a nice addition to FP. Oh, well...One more story: many of my images were taking with my old film Canon. I have no scanner, so, when I'd like to post an old image I just take a picture of the picture.The quality is of course so-so. A month or so ago I was contacted by the editor of Israeli science magazine for kids with the request to publish one of these images. I e-mailed to him that I'm going to send him a negative. He was more than surprised. He said he did not need a negative and the quality is just fine. He sent me the magazine and 3x5 color images looks not bad at all. I even cannot imagine what would opposes I would get, if I were silly enough to nominate it on FP--Mbz1 22:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
  - It is all a matter of time (and money too of course). You cannot imagine how many negatives I have. I've been 2 times to Antarctica, 2 times to Africa, two times to Canadian Arctic, to Indonesia, to Papua new Guinea, to Australia , To Easter Island and so on, so on. It is hard for me to find a print, leave alone a negative (I do have all of them there's just way too many). Btw, I live in San Francisco--Mbz1 23:11, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
    - I was born in Ukraine and ever since I could remember myself I wanted to travel. It was a forbidden fruit in Soviet Union. I'm glad I was able at least partly to live my dream.--Mbz1 23:23, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Socks

Seems to have been confirmed (see here). Lycaon 22:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, their votes are nullified :-(. If you have suspicions (it doesn't happen very often luckily), you do a request for checkuser. Lycaon 22:34, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

They have been struck (apparently without consequences to tallies). Lycaon 22:47, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Combat-de-phelsumes-sur-un-bananier.JPG

Bonjour. Je ne modifie jamais les photographies que je prends par l'informatique, car je ne sais pas comment faire. Du coup, je n'utilise pas le format RAW. La seule version de l'image que je possède est celle que j'ai chargée, malheureusement. Thierry Caro 21:18, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Loch Fada Storr Skye

Hello Doodledoo, you commented on Image:Loch Fada Storr Skye 2007-08-22.jpg and blurryness in the foreground. Are there particular areas that are unsharp? There are some grassy islands in the loch, if it were in this area I would understand it as I had very little overlap there in the stitch (the photo of this area was very unsharp). But if it is elsewhere as well, then my camera has a problem since being repaired. See Inverness Castle in Commons:Photography critiques for another shot with an "unsharp" verdict. -- Klaus with K 15:08, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello again, right now I took the plunge and nominated Image:Loch Fada Storr Skye 2007-08-22.jpg at FPC. How may it fare? -- Klaus with K 15:00, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Once again Isle of Skye, correcting a perspective problem I restitched the image yielding Image:Loch Fada Storr Skye restitch 2007-08-22.jpg. Maybe you could have look at this IMHO better version at Commons:Featured picture candidates/Image:Loch Fada Storr Skye 2007-08-22.jpg ? -- Klaus with K 10:07, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Helsinki Cathedral

Hi. My image of The Lutheran Cathedral in Helsinki is up for FP nominations. As you have regarded it favourably on QIC, could you possibly assess it on FPC too. Thanks. Lycaon 13:48, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re : Barnstar!

Hello.
Thanks a lot for that barnstar. Glad to see that you appreciate my creations with that excellent tool which is Inkscape. I hope being able to make many other valuable contributions for the project.

[edit] Image:Oven and range.svg

I am the creator of Image:Gas range.svg. I saw that you added the image "Oven and range.svg" for the Nuvola 2.0+ collection. I wanted to tell you that I did the image I did so that there would be some kind of cooking appliance, but I have to tell you that you've done a great job on your image, it really has that "pop" effect that is the difference between an ordinary image (like what I did) and something that's really good (like yours.) Thanks for helping to add another image to the collection (especially one that's demonstrably better than the one I did). Rfc1394 02:30, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notice

You've recently noted that there is a quality problem 'in full size' with [1]. The image has been added a tag that helps view it at more comfortable resolutions (800px, 1500px, 2000px wide) and I was hoping that you'll reconsider your vote. Jaakobou 15:39, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Please link images

Hello Doodledoo!

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.
